[Is there a Random link functionality in KVS?]

3 hours ago, Tech Support said:

For activating auto-play please go to Settings -> Player settings and enable auto-play in options.

Thank you. This has been done already.

When users click on a video from a frontpage or inner page > a video page opens and autoplay starts

But, when a person opens a url directly, a video waits for the user to press play.

Sample of a direct url:

https://dnmum.com/videos/36/brandable-domain-portfolio-review-larhus-com-ronul-com-qrbe-com-and-others-adam-dicker/

Or, have we missed anything? :) Thank you, H

Anyway - super!!

[Is there a Random link functionality in KVS?]

Good afternoon,

Is there a functionality in KVS where we can use 1 link that would take every visitor to a randomly selected video?

.. as an example, in emojipedia there is https://emojipedia.org/random/

here is another sample (my hobby project) of a /random.php functionality (cms: open source photo gallery Piwigo): https://artforweb.co.uk/random.php

In this case > we could shoot traffic to this link and the visitors would be more or less evenly spread across the videos.

Best!

Please go to Website UI -> Language files -> default. In the text editor you can do mass replace of "model" to "expert".

This will also change URL patterns, so you need to do the same replacement in .htaccess file (via FTP client in your server document root).

Finally please got to Settings -> Website Settings and change Model page URL pattern field accordingly.

Thank you

Just in a case, do you mind sharing a sample of line in htaccess? .. just for the 1 url? Tx

[Server Backup]

.. helping OP:

RAID, in simple terms, is a setup of disks, where the server sees them as 1 logical disk unit. the main usage is redundancy, most common RAID1 means that the drives are mirrored (whatever you save on 1 drive, you save on another drive as well), and if you have a drive failure, you have a spare. .. that's in short. the problem with your question > it does not protect you if you need to recover an older version of your website (for example, if it gets hacked or killed by a fresh update).

[Server Backup]

Questions about backups are always good. .. let me jump in..

How often do you back up your KVS server, how often your storage servers and conversion servers (if at all?).. really curious.

Also, what are your costs on backups, if you don't mind?

Best! H

[Changing 'models' urls and text to 'experts'?]

Good evening,

What would be the most correct to change the words "model" and "models" to "expert" and "experts"?

We are using KVS to set up a tube site dedicated to domain investing.

Tx, Helmuts

[Web hosting and storage]

We are starting with 3 dedicated servers with unlimited traffic - main kvs server + 1 storage server + 1 conversion server.

Not looking into CDN, even if we are not serving adult niche.

I would rather take couple more conversion servers than CDN.

I would probably build my own CDN for video files, for the sole reason to be able to control the expenses.

Helmuts

p.s. server costs are minimal for us as our main business is web hosting and servers (HostMaria)
