Why not just using title for this? Sounds more logical than separate field.

Let's look at an example from my previous screenshot. For the name of the partner I would use "Fresh Men". And for example, for a button of such a plan "Watch More of Adam at Fresh Men", I would put exactly the name of the partner.
But the button in the format "Visit FRESHMEN.com" looks more impressive and encourages action from users exactly when the URL of the site with "com" is used.

So this is an additional option to add variety and usability to the buttons and links and increase the conversion.

Guys, could you please add Trans for Gender menu by Models?

We will make this configurable in future. You can use Other at the moment, and you can rename it in frontend in Website UI -> Texts section.

If we add more specific values right now, there will be an issue for updating users, that can use new values in admin panel, but their themes will miss the needed texts.

I am currently redeveloping a site - so a lot of ideas come along)

Сould you add Order for Post as it is by Content Sources now? This will allow blog posts to be pinned to the top, as it is now possible to do on the walls in social networks. 

There is also Order for Channel groups. But in a strange way, there is not for Channels. This could also be used. I think it will not be difficult to add Order for Channels?

We will consider adding manual sorting for posts, but this will likely go to the new codebase.

There is support for Order for channels, this column is just not enabled by default and you can enable it via column chooser functionality.

For now we have HLS task, which is far more important than VR. After we are done with HLS, we will see what next.

But for sure we need some VR indicator in KVS, to allow at least using 3rd-party VR player for VR videos.


Hi,

 

It would be superb to get an update regarding the possibility to add VR promo clips to my KVS website.

Do you have any news about this topic?

If there's no plan to have VR support for the player, please come up with a suggestion on how can we add such content to our site? 

My company runs almost a dozen tubes, and would love to launch or very first pure VR one..

You can use any 3rd-party player with VR support to run a VR site. Just replace KVS player with your VR player.

For now we are working with the new player, but the work is done as a low priority background (on weekends when have time), so likely to be ready only in the 2nd half of the year. And no plans to add VR at the moment, we just want to get rid of obsolete flowplayer code that we are using and add support for HLS.

Is this available yet ?

  • Ability to reply comments (e.g. hierarchical comments)
  • User notification system, ability for users to get notifications about some events (new comments for their videos for example)

Besides, it would be great if this could implemented

Right now user won't know if there is any notification or not when they visit site until they hover or click to "hello, user" bar

What if there's some notification and there's a sign for it ? Like this, user instantly know there's something for them. The (*) can be a number notification, but it should be red color or highlight color instead normal color

And when they click to it, it will be like this

Or a notification bell like facebook/youtube would be perfect, a small bell icon next to "Hello, user" bar

You can render the number of unread messages like this:

{{$smarty.session.unread_messages}} - the total number of unread messages
{{$smarty.session.unread_invites}} - the number of unread invites
{{$smarty.session.unread_non_invites}} - the number of unread messages minus invites

Guys, can you add mass change of password for users. I see periodically the suspicious mass login of certain parties of users on Premium site. Clearly these are compromised accounts. I don't want to disable them, since the real owner can always reappear and subscribe again, but massively changing the password to a random one would be the optimal solution.

We will add that, but please also create a ticket, there is another way of solving this problem using automatic ban.

Hi guys!

Do you have a plan to make groups for tags in the future (similar as for categories, models, etc.)?

I would like to make a similar grouping for the tags page.

No, we don't plan grouping for tags. What you show on the picture is categories, not tags. Tags in KVS are free form text labels that can be 100000s on a project (and normally are bigger then 10000). There is no sense to group them.

Now I can only select "show_only_with_videos (Integer)" or "show_only_with_albums (Integer)" in the Models List, but I can’t specify what kind of content: Public, Premium etc… Please add the option to specify it like it works in Common Videos List.

I'll explain the situation. The site has its own content (Premium) and Affiliate content from sponsors (Public). Models are marked everywhere. But I do not want models from affiliate content to be presented in the general list of models until this model is shooted in our own production, after which the model should automatically appear in the model list immediately after the publication of premium content with her/his participation.

Thank you!

Sorry, we can't add this due to performance issues. There is no technical way we can easily check if the model has public or any other types of videos when displaying model list. You have to think about other way of design. For example if you don't want models from affiliates to be present, you can add them to some model group, and then use skip_model_groups filter in your general list_models blocks where you don't want these models to appear.

Of course, I can do this, but it's extra work and attention not to forget to transfer each model from one group to another… Manual labor instead of automatic.

If suddenly it will be possible with the nextgen code, please implement this function!

You can probably use one of the video custom fields (can be enabled in Settings -> Customization) and post a link to another video page. Then in video_view block you can render it like this:

{{if $data.custom1}}
<a href="{{$data.custom1}}">this video has a similar video</a>
{{/if}}
