    Thanks!!

    I have updated the movies plugin today. This update improves the load times of the movies archive page significantly, which makes the process of finding videos easier and quicker. Everything else should behave exactly the same as before, the only changes I made are behind the scenes.

    Let me know if you have any problems!

    Another update to the movies page! This week I worked primarily on adding a search feature. Less notably I also added the length of a video on its thumbnail preview, the view count under selected videos, as-well as made small style changes

    Here’s an example of the search feature. There is no need to press enter or look for a search button when entering a search term, after you are done typing the search will happen automatically.

    movies-search

     

    To keep everyone in the loop – here’s what I plan to do next:

    • Add YouTube & Instagram videos in movies list
    • Add animated video preview

    As always, post up here if you have any problems!

    Another update to the movies page today!

    This week I added the Youtube videos & Vimeo uploads to the list, improved the interface, and made lots of adjustments to the way things work behind the scenes in order to improve performance.

    Relevant Interface Changes:

    • Embed link is now hidden until user clicks/taps the ‘Embed’ button
    • Search bar now supports pressing enter/return to search immediately (instead of waiting for it to happen automatically)
    • Added view count
    • Added post/upload date (note: old KCW clips have the Vimeo upload date, not the creation date)

    This picture does a good job of summing up what changed:

    movies-final

    For the time being I am shelving this project (unless some problematic bugs show up) and am going to begin working to improve other areas of the site in a similar manner. I intend to revisit this project and add more features later on down the road.
