Great news for the SecondHandSongs community!


From now on, any logged in forum user will be able to choose which Youtube video will be displayed on the page of an original or a cover.

Simply go to a song page, and you will be shown a menu that proposes 4 videos from Youtube. Pick the one that is most representative for the song, and make sure it has an acceptable sound quality.


Have fun, and don't hesitate to give us feedback on this new functionality!

Sure it's quite good. However when a vid is deleted...

The website detects when a video is deleted, so you should never see a non-functional video on SHS. Let us know if you do.

You can report a video by clicking on the "report this video" link just below the video.

For some reason, I'm not seeing this menu or any youtube anything.


What am I missing? Where should I be looking?

      • Nevermind, I figured it out. I was looking at the generic 'song' and I needed to be looking at the actual recordings. Once I did that, it worked fine.

Thanks!

Peter

Hi,


I accidently pressed 'disable' on the Youtube page and now I cannot get any youtube videos.


How do you 'enable'?


Cheers

Hi Bastien,


I've tried your instuctions, checked the youtube box and submitted with my password, this produced an 'account modified' message in a green box at the bottom but unfortunatley I still can't seem to be able to access the youtube videos.


Cheers.

Hello StokieSkid,


I did a manual check and you should be able to see them. Are you sure that you're visiting performance pages which actually have Youtube results?

For instance do you see the box at Sabotage ?

If not, does anything change when you log out and back in?
