Description

If you choose to use the flowplayer module, you are required to have Tikiwiki installed in the root of the domain.

ie: http://www.domain.com/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=BobQuestion will not work, while
http://www.domain.com/tiki-index.php?page=BobQuestion will work.

The cause for this seems to be that the lib/wiki-plugins/wikiplugin_flowplayer.php file is hard coded to work from the '/lib/flowplayer/' folder.

(Search words: flowplayer, tikiwiki, broken, no video, blank)

Solution

My down and dirty solution is to directly edit the 'lib/wiki-plugins/wikiplugin_flowplayer.php' file and change any lines that contain

/lib/flowplayer/

to

/tiki/lib/flowplayer/

or whatever your install is.

Request: It would be nice to have an Admin page that allows you to set the default parameters by storing them in the db and rewriting the wikiplugin_flowplayer.php script to build the html each time (adding in the option of the default location of the flowplayer components). (I'm not able to code the db system, so I'll leave it as a request.)
