Introduction:
Social Media is the perfect solution to create your own video sharing and uploading community just like Youtube, Myspace and Metacafe.... this premium package includes the most advanced features on the market today at an extremely affordable price while offering the potential for you to reach maximum rewards.
Our goal with Social Media was to combine the video / media sharing capabilities of YouTube with the social networking functionality of MySpace, to create a script which enables you to start a community whereby users can create their own unique profile, interact with other members and find new friends while showing off their own media files or sharing their favourite ones.
Key Features:
Social Media is packed full of features. Listing them all would take pages, so instead I have listed only a few of the key features below. For a complete list of features, please refer to the Social Media feature list.
Advanced Member Profiles:
Each member can create their own unique profile. Unlike MySpace, Social Media uses advanced ajax and javascript to allow complete customisation without the member needing knowledge of html / css. A few profile features have been listed below. For a complete overview, feel free to create your own member account on the Social Media demo.
- Moveable Boxes:
Members can move their boxes into new positions using âdrag and dropâ. Box positions are saved after each move. - Box Colours:
Members can set unique colours for each profile box. If saved, these colours are updated instantly using ajax. Admins can also set pre-defined profile layouts if the user does not wish to modify each box colour individually. - Create New Boxes:
Members can create their own profile boxes, and add their own content or widgets such as FLV players or other flash content. They can also rename the title of the box, and even add an RSS feed. - Other Profile Features:
Members can also completely modify their profile CSS. For beginners, there is also a âSimple Profile Editorâ which enables members to change all profile colours with the click of a button.
Social Media accepts all well known media formats, including videos, images, audio and flash files. Additional formats can easily be added via the admin panel. A variety of methods can be used to add media to your site, a few of which have been listed below.
- File Uploads - Original method. Using a regular file uploader or the included flash uploader
- Mobile Phone Upload - Members can upload media directly from their mobile phones using MMS
- Embed Code (Admin Only) - Ability to add media as an embed code from other sites, for example a YouTube video
- Media From Server (Admin Only) - A great way to mass-add media. Files can be added which have been uploaded to your server via FTP.
- Media Plugs (Admin Only) - Admins can add media plugs which look like regular media files, however in fact redirect the user to another site.
Other YouTube clones require special server tools in order to have a fancy uploader. With Social Media, this is not the case. Social Media uses a flash uploader which includes a progress bar (Which also displays bytes uploaded, estimated time etc). The flash uploader also helps over come time out problems which occur with many other scripts.
Flash (FLV) Player:
Social Media comes complete with a custom FLV Player. Our FLV Player is packed with features, such as; water marking; users can drag the video left or right to fast forward; email to friend option; share link / embed code; player guide once video has ended; slow motion; full screen; sound controls; player settings (video smoothing, contrast etc). We also include a complete skin file which enabled you to change the entire FLV player skin to match your site.
- In Player Video Advertisement Pop-Ups
Admins can set advertisements which pop-up while a video is playing. Check out our live demo to see this feature in action. - Video Commercials
Admins can set commercials which are played either before or after the actual video is played. This commercial can be clicked and taken to a site of you choice (A great way to advertise!).
Social Media has the ability to convert all uploaded videos to FLV format, and to automatically generate a thumbnail for these videos. Admins can control all settings related to FLV conversion via the admin panel, including encoding quality and resizing.
Member Features:
One main focus of Social Media was to help maximise member interaction on your site. In turn, Social Media includes a range of member features (Too many to describe here). Instead, I have listed a few of the main member modules that Social Media has to offer.
- Favourite Media
- Private Messaging System
- Blogs
- Groups
- Photo Albums
- Media / Member Subscriptions
- Media Playlists
- Bulletins
- Friends Lists / Block Lists
Media sharing websites can cause quite high server loads if you have high amounts of traffic. To help resolve this issue, Social Media has a server loading feature which enables you to setup multiple servers which help stream your media. If slave servers are enabled, media will be uploaded and streamed from these servers, thus saving space and bandwidth on your main server.
Multi-Language Support:
Social Media has an in-built language system which enables you to offer multiple languages to your members. Admins can set a default language, then members can select their own language from their account settings.
Template Engine:
Social Media has an in-built template engine which completely separates the template html from the programming code. This enables template designers to modify the entire design without needing any programming knowledge what-so-ever. The entire theme can be modified from the admin panel.
Pricing:
Social Media was originally priced at $297, however we have recently introduced a $100 discount, thus lowering the price to an amazing $197 for a short period of time!
