Here is an issue I am having using this plugin. When I apply the settings to only allow the blog admin to upload media users cannot upload by clicking on the button at the bottom of the video in the blog post. However, when the user goes into the edit panel, they can click on the clips panel "Add" and then they can upload media to the video.

Is there a way to turn off uploading from the edit panel while still allowing users to edit the video clips added by the admin???

My settings were to allow blog admin upload capabilities and allow everyone to edit.

Please help shed some light on this! This is a great plugin and I would like to use it with our K-12 school district, but teachers need to have control of what is uploaded or added to the video in edit mode.

I should also mention I am using KalturaCE the latest download.

Thanks,
Chris

I just want to turn off "Add More" to the video clips panel when the editor pops up. Based on the All in One settings of only allowing Blog Admin to upload media, you would think that it would turn off the Add More button in the editor unless the blog admin was editing the video.

Can someone help me out? I'd love to let our K-12 district have at this new plugin, but I can't until I figure out how to not allow just anyone to upload media in the edit screen. For teachers, they would want to load the clips and then have the students re-arrange them via the editor and NOT be able to upload more.

We are running this on Kaltura CE and the only option we allow for adding media is currently the webcam recordings. (No uploading, No photos, No Audio. Strictly using webcam videos only at this point)

Thanks for any help you may be able to offer.

Thanks to Zohar Babin of Kaltura, I now have a fix :

I need you to edit this file:

/kalturaCE/content/uiconf/kaltura/wordpress/se_wordpress.xml

And replace it's contents with the following:

<SimpleEditor>

                <ContributionWizard>

                                <UIConfigId>504</UIConfigId>

                </ContributionWizard>

                <Welcome>/swf/simpleeditwelcome.swf</Welcome>

                <enableCW>false</enableCW>

                <DefaultTransition>None</DefaultTransition>

                <KPaint>

                                <target>/flash/kpaint/v1.0.2/Painter.swf</target>

                                <shapes>/flash/kpaint/v1.0.2/shapes</shapes>

                                <fonts>/flash/kpaint/v1.0.2/fonts</fonts>

                                <config>/flash/kpaint/v1.0.2/kpaint_config.xml</config>

                </KPaint>

                <UIConfigList>  

                <UIConfig>

                                                <target>simpleeditor.swf</target>

                                    <cssUrl>/content/uiconf/kaltura/styles_SimpleEditor_default.swf</cssUrl>

                                    <localeUrl>/content/uiconf/kaltura/en_US_SimpleEditor.swf</localeUrl>

                                </UIConfig>

                </UIConfigList>

</SimpleEditor>

This will definitely make the Kaltura video editing more acceptable to K-12 educators as it limits who can upload videos to the system.
THANK YOU!!!

Hi guys,

Note that the difference is in adding the following line:
<enableCW>false</enableCW>

Will this still work with the new Version 3.0? I am trying to remove the Add More button again for version3. I would like for the upload button to only appear on the embedded player next to the edit button. That way teachers can control it from the All in One menus.

I noticed in the new se_wordpress.xml file these lines are removed:

/flash/kpaint/v1.0.2/Painter.swf
/flash/kpaint/v1.0.2/shapes
/flash/kpaint/v1.0.2/fonts
/flash/kpaint/v1.0.2/kpaint_config.xml

Thanks,
Chris
