I am using the 3.6 version of PHPV and have a question about both the "built in" API importing functions and the compatibility....

1.  Is there a plan to make 3.6 compatible with the recent YouTube and Vimeo API updates that are now not working in PHPV 3.6

2.  If not - can I pull the facebook and vimeo import/api code out of the PHPV 4.0 version and retrofit it so it work in PHPV 3.6?

please advise

Hi,

1. for us previous versions are deprecated. We don't update them except as normal -> to new version. Is there any reason you wish to keep 3.6?
2. Sure, lib/youtube.class.php and the /moderator files (here is a bit of file comparing I don't know from my head), there may be functions in 4.0 that are needed, a find in file may get you to them.

I want to keep 3.6 because I've already customized it and don't want to lose all the work I've put into it.

and

you're saying in response to my 2nd question

that it IS possible if I use the files you identified above? any other help would be great...thanks

If I didn't do this, I can't give you an exact answer.
Start from those file, enable error_reporting, if you have an error that says x function doesn't exist, copy it from 4.0.

Ok so that is for the "built-in" import functions....I also bought both the Youtube and Vimeo plugins right when they were starting to not work so my question is:

do the new 4.0 compatible importer plugins for both youtube and vimeo work with 3.6?

please advise.

[PHPVibe A.]

I assume not, since the 3.6 has no plugins system, and parts of this plugins use the new plugins system from 4.0, this is the major development in 4.0, the plugins system, so we don't have to ask clients to overwrite code and portions all the time.
