Plugin prefs can be set under the Admin > Preferences tab and are mainly used as default values for the @<txp:oui_player />@ tag attributes.

h3. Global prefs

  • @Field used by default@ := Defines a field to use as the default @play@ attribute value. %(warning)The provided fieldname must be different than any value entered in it; avoid digits if you use ID's as @play@ attribute values% Default: @article_image@ valid: @article_image@ or any existing custom field =:
  • @Favourite provider@ := Set the default @provider@ attribute value. Default: the first plugged provider valid: Any plugged provider in the select list =:
  • @Display the provider player preferences@ := Displays the defined provider prefs as a goup of prefs. Default: yes valid: yes or no =:

h3. Providers prefs

While %(information)some player parameters, related to the item to play, should be used through attributes% (e.g. the Youtube @start@ parameter which defines the second where to start playing the video), %(information)these used as global settings should preferrably be set through the plugin preferences% to %(warning)avoid a massive use of tag attributes%.

Of course, it is still possible to override a plugin pref value via an attribute when needed.

bc(language-markup). <txp:oui_player />

The item to play; required if it does not use the value of the custom field selected in the plugin prefs (See each provider to know the valid values). default: %(information)changed v1.2.0% the @play@ attribute value of an eventual @txp:oui_if_play</txp:oui_if_play>@ container tag, or the custom field value of the one selected in the plugin prefs. =:
  • @provider@ := Extension related provider name; uses the related preference value by default. The provider to use; required if the @play@ attribute is an id, recommended anyways if known as it increases the plugin performances by skipping the provider guess. =:
