I was hoping to that my customers would be able to upload multiple videos into their listing. I’ve tried a few things:

1) I embedded several videos into the “More Info” tab, and renamed the tab Videos. The result is a string of multiple videos (Yay!), but they look unsightly (ICK!)…all squished & narrow. I understand that users can click “full screen,” but first impressions are everything, especially when I’m taking customer’s money. 🙂 The other undesirable thing that happens is that another new tab is automatically created (Video)that includes only the last video from the list of uploads. See Pic #1 & 2

If I deselect “Show in More Info tab” in the video field, I still only get the one last video from the list in the auto-created tab.

2) The second thing I tried was to create new video tabs using the Textarea fieldset (just as the default video field) and naming them video1, video2, video3, etc. I can get the tabs to show some of the time, but the video embed doesn’t work at all and I only get blank tabs (bummer). See pic#3.

I would like to offer at least a 4 video embed. Scenario #1 would be best if I could have all the videos in one tab either in the “More info” tab (not squished flat), or all in the auto-created video tab. OR, I would be Ok with having multiple video tabs (using textarea fieldset) if that would work, but I prefer scenario 1.

Is there any way to fix this?

One more quick question….is there a maximum number of tabs I can have in a listing? At some point in my testing I had 2 rows of tabs (assuming a customer might go crazy & fill video tabs, audio tabs, uploads, etc) , but I haven’t been able to duplicate that again.

Thanks so much for your help!
Cheers, Kris

Technically, you can use as many tabs as you like, but once the first row is full things will get ugly …
If you use an HTML field you can add as many videos you like to the one field.

See my test site here [ignore all little errors at various places, it is a test site):

When I use the html fieldsets for embedding videos, only the code comes through as text. See pic, please. I can’t figure out why it’s not working on my end. Thanks for checking into this.

Cheers! Kris

Post your URL and admin details if you want me to have a closer look.

Thanks!

I corrected the video2 tab data.

That’s really odd, because when I add the code to the text tab of the editor, save and publish, I get a completely blank tab. When I open the editor to go back and edit, the text box is completely blank as if I never had pasted anything.
What am I missing?

If you add it from the backend, it works [see video1 tab].
I don’t understand why, we’ll have to call in the wizards.

I definitely want my customers to be able to upload from the front end…LOL… I really don’t want to have to do it for them. 🙂

Thanks again.
