Free WP Tube 3.0
Download: PORN VERSION | GENERAL VERSION
Setup is very simple and it comes with all the needed plugins. Read install.txt file that comes with the tube. For the fastest adding of videos you can try BlogDesk. Please use latest version of Wordpress for this new theme (2.8+) or you will get an error.
HOW TO ADD THUMBS:
This is still just wordpress. It can not generate thumbs by itself. You need to either make a thumb an upload it to your server or hotlink to a thumb from sponsor or other site.
Here is what to do:
1. upload a thumb
2. go to custom fields below your post area (below of where you write post text).
3. create new custom field called “thumb” (without “”)
4. in value field put in url to thumb you uploaded or to thumb your sponsor or other site is hosting
5. click add custom field

Go to settings/reading. Please read install.txt before asking any more questions, it’s all there
Sasa, log into your wp admin area. Click on settings and then on Reading. Set the amount of videos you want to show on the home page at “Blog pages show at most”

Is it possible to make a caption of the video and post as the picture instead of manually putting pictures?

hey, this is a awesome site, just one thing though, When you have alot of categories its starts to run off the page, this is at the top near the search box. Any way to fix this? thanks
@mike
Why don’t you create main categories and than sub categories (children).
@Greg
Nice one, didnt think about doing that:P. looks much better/legit now thanks
Is the videos should be posted manually? or theres an auto post? thanks
I installed this theme but I can’t to put a thumb! Why?
@max
Read install.txt
@cantik
No, you can import them from css. See this post: http://www.freewptube.com/auto-import-videos.html
I read instal.txt, I did All .. but .. in NEW POST don’t see how insert thumb …
can you tell me in my msn messenger? man99@hotmail.it
@max
than you haven’t read install.txt, because it explains how to use custom fields
lol, its in the bottom, the custom field section, add thumb and url of thumb
btw is there a way to make the the sidebar tht gets shown when you click on a post the same colour as the front page sidebar, because the grey goes with my site, but with black i cant see my widget’s texts
@Rah
Sure, you can edit the code. Maybe your path to theme is messed up? Do other themes work for you on that install?
yeah they do and i actually unstalled wordpress and reinstalled it too..
@Rah
I sent you an email
??
cheers
@fred bloggs
Download new index.php file from here: http://www.freewptube.com/index.zip
Unzip, replace the current index.php in your theme and you are done. This is for version 3.0
cheers but that doesn’t seem to work properly, it maybe clashing with one of the extra plugins i’ve installed though, i’ll have a play.
While i’m here i’ll mention a little bug i think i have discovered, my “most viewed” page keeps doubling up entries so that pairs of idential entries appear next to each other.
hi all well my name is Bruno would love if I could explain how to insert larger images I thank you sorry I am Brazilian and I’m using google translate thanks
Hi is there a way to disable the top menu catagory bar and only have the catagories in the sidebar because when you have a lot of catagories it messes the top bar up
thanks
@Paul
You can choose to display pages in top menu in theme options.
Hey, i just imported a database with 1500 videos, now all of them have no thumbnails, is there a way / plugin that is going to let me mass change the thumbnails that i choose. For example i choose all of family guy season 4 and choose a thumbnail for all of them.
thanks
@Greg
Hi thanks but where is that ..Is it this Show Pages for Menu? as I have that disabled and it sstill shows up the categorys on the top bar I cant see anywhere else within the tube options to disable this
thanks
@Paul
You need to enable that
@Greg

Hey

I’ve uploaded a fair number of videos onto the site, but for some reason, they aren’t “filling in all the spaces”. In one line I may have one or two thumbprints whereas other lines will be filled. Can you help?
@classyfox
Go to settings/reading and set the number of posts to display on front page
Thank Greg, will take a look at that. Two more issues :
1. header bar populated with all categories looks messy, any way to disable categories in header
2. on selecting this theme, WP admin pages view gets stretched, any other there WP admin is normal…… any suggestions?
Where are the tube options? Appearance / Themes … I dont see options? Where am I going wrong?
@classyfox
It’s the last in the menu when you have the theme enabled
Still not seeing it Greg, I look at all menu’s in wp-admin on the left and tube options isnt in there anywhere, which main heading will it me under? Appearance, Settings? or what?
Send me log in details to your wp admin using contact form on this site and I’ll take a look tomorrow
I will do that- thank you!
thank you so much! nice theme good
I read instal.txt, I did All .. but .. in NEW POST don’t see how insert thumb …
“2. thumb – URL to the small picture of the video in the home page. Size for this template is 156×103 (you can put up a bigger image, it will fit in automaticly, but it will take longer to load)”

I do not know much Russian and English as a request to show on the fingers!
Thanks for the help!
great theme very very great design , thanks
I’m back again with another question! We’re trying to place ads from our affiliates onto the tubepress and are running into problems. Is there someplace to find instructions on how to do this? We’ve managed to get adultfriendfinders in, but the rest are proving a bit more difficult! Site is called http://www.gotxilk.com
Thanks!!
Classyfox

I am trying to set up my 1st site with your program and attempting to use YouTube videos. Where do you find the URL to the thumbnail image on YouTube? Is there a way to upload YouTube playlists? I did download BlogDesk as you suggested but have not used it yet. Just trying to figure out the easiest way to get a lot of videos into my site the fastest way, thanks!
How can I remove all ads in wptube 3 ?
Hi all users, those who are suffering from displaying the thumbs just Download new index.php file from here: http://www.freewptube.com/index.zip and then copy the new index in your theme folder, great one works great. Thanks to wptube builder
@tenali
Thanks Tenali. Just to make sure, this index.php file enables you to choose top rated posts instead of order by date. Most users have problems with thumbs because they don’t even read install.txt
Hey..
Just took this site live a couple days ago…
http://www.freegonzotube.com
Using a heavily modified version of this great theme.
Check it out.
One simple question..
How complicated would it be to implement RSS on the theme?
Cheers
Nevermind… RSS is already there.. All I need to do now is customize it so it includes thumbnail image on it.
The site is pretty cool but so very very many people have exactly the same problem with Thumbs not appearing on the home page.
The answer is read the install text which to be honest is very vague indeed as many users do not know any html.
Many people ask the same question here and get a rather short and irritated reply. The fact is this is a good product that could be fantastic. Not everyone is wrong and only the creator right.
Can you at least provide a step by step guide to correcting the thumbnail issue as it is not clearly covered in the install text.
I have installed hundreds of script sites both WPress and non wordpress but sorry this one outfoxes me.
Many people want to use a post feeder/generator to obtain the videos.
Whilst the videos work perfectly in the player on pressing the empty thumb sqaure, the thumbs themself are not visible even when the relevent boxes as mentioned above are selected.
Can you help once and for all not only myself but everyone else who still hasn’t solved this.
My regards and thanks
David
Does anyone have a fix that works for the no thumbs visible problem on the main page?
@DAVID
NO THUMBS PROBLEM:
This is still just wordpress. It can not generate thumbs by itself. You need to either make a thumb an upload it to your server or hotlink to a thumb from sponsor or other site.
Here is what to do:
1. upload a thumb
2. go to custom fields below your post area (below of where you write post text).
3. create new custom field called “thumb” (without “”)
4. in value field put in url to thumb you uploaded or to thumb your sponsor or other site is hosting
5. click add custom field
That’s it. Hope it’s understood.
Greg is right in that a custom field must be created and this works fine for 95% of posts.
The problem people are having when using automated post plugins is that the software itself
names the thumb on the post differently. ie the software instead of naming the image “thumb” will name the image something like psb_thum_url.
When written in this way WP Tube will NOT recognize the thumb posted and it still will not appear in the gallery.
This is NOT a WP Tube problem. WP Tube works amazingly well and all credit to Greg for producing such a fantastic script for free!
What you have to do to get around this is edit one of of your files in the relevent Plugins functions.php file so that instead of automaticaly listing each thumb as psb_thum_url or wpo_thumb_url it lists it as simply thumb.
It’s very easy really once you know how but it did take me a good few hours to sort out.
Remember that this tube script wasn’t made just for automatic post generators. It was made for individual posts.
Greg has done a brilliant job and this product works perfectly. The problem is with the plugins we choose to use and it is up to us to solve that problem and has nothing to do with Greg or WP Tube.
Once again many thanks to Greg and the team a job very well done!
Greg,
thanks a lot for this amazing theme!
I had no problems with thumbs, and in my opinion the file install.txt is illustrative and easy in this matter.
But, i don´t know how to insert the advertise code in the space before the footer and after the posts?
hy, i am wondering how can i resize the thumbnail?
hey dude please tell me that how can I put my banners. I dont know how to place them, I have the code.
@romail
Hey there dude, you need to edit the files listed in install.txt. Let me know if you have any more problems.
Ok I have the banner code for adult friend finder. It will be very kind if you can explain how to put that banner in the ad space?
hi everybody
for me the thumbnails work nice but i have a smal problem, i can not link directly to an extern page from the thumbnail, when i click on the thumbnail it takes me to another intern page with datails, how can i link to an extern page plz ???
thanks
@xXSebaSXx
hi sebas, i need ur help, add me on msn plz le_calin@hotmail.com
thanks
hey
anyone can explain plz how to add ad banner in the footer ???
thanks
If you want to make your WP Tube auto-updating (let it pull the new FLV clips right from XML feeds), I would suggest you to install the CyberSEO Suite plugin.
Here is an instruction on how to make WP Tube theme work with CyberSEO Suite: http://www.adultwebmastergroup.com/showpost.php?p=80482&postcount=8
thank you so much for this by the way.
is there anyway to make the index page show random videos by default?
Wonderful theme, well I know the new theme might be coming out anytime soon. I will be updating but as for now, the 3plugins will not upload… This might be a problem on my end, I am going to keep trying, but the 3plugins I guess for rating, views and such will not upload. Like I said, I will keep trying hopefully I will figure out what the hell I am doing wrong. Also using IE, ads and things keep disappearing I will try and figure it out but when I view my site on Firefox ever thing is there like it should be. Hm weird.
And I clicked on a lot of post names and saw websites, on the Firefox browser you can look at keywords that people have on their site. Just right click on the page and go to “Page Info” then you will see something called Meta Tags, please people who didn’t add keywords to your site, please do so. It will help you get listed in search engines and much more.
Also I add all of my videos manually so it is easy to make thumbs, the instructions are very simple. And it might be easy as well if you allow others to add videos to your site, manually this might save on time.
@PornShowsLive.com
Yes, it has to be your FTP problem. Meta tags are useless, Google is not using them. You can use the current teme and than switch to new one when it comes out.
@Greg
Yeah, I kind of figured it was dealing with an FTP problem… I use Firefox mostly. I didn’t know Google wasn’t using Meta Tags. I’m pretty sure Yahoo, MSN and some others still do, at least I hope.
And thank you Greg for the fast reply.
how to change from text title to logo image?
tried this but didnt work for me…please help…thanks!
/* Header image */
h1 {
background: url(http://www.asiapoliticalnews.com//wp-content/images/apn.png) no-repeat;
width: 389px;
height: 62px;
position: relative;
top: -45px;
}
h1 a {
display: block;
width: 389px;
height: 62px;
text-indent: -9000px;
}
Cool like this
thanks
@tester
When you enable the Tube Theme you should see something at the very bottom of the page that states, “Tube Options”, Click That and it will take you to the “Main Settings” once there change logo from “text”, to “image”. Then go down and put in the URL of the image. For logo position I use “5px 0 0 20px”. Save your changes and that’s it.
yes, with 3 version its working fine. 1.0 version not working for me….anyway I will go with 3.0
thanks!
how to do Auto import video from youtube? any steps or program for this? thanks
hey everything works perfect on me.
i just have a simple question..
on main page there is TODAYS FREE VIDEOS
then if you click any categories, let’s say, fun.
it will automatically change to, TODAYS FREE VIDEOS FOR FUN
i actually love it.
however, i want to edit it, i mean, i dont want it saying TODAYS FREE VIDEOS,
is it possible to edit that?
Is there a way to change the thumbnail size? Right now it’s 156×103, but since most of my thumbs will be vertical instead, so I’d like to preset it to 156×250.
@Juan
Did you figure out how to do this? I can’t seem to get thumbs to display in my feed either.
@PGR
I have not implemented the thumbnails on the RSS yet. It’s not too complicated, but you do need to know how to from the xml for the RSS feed and be mindful of special characters in xml.
@sandeep
Really great theme.
really nice site but i couldnot put gif formate pic in the sidebar
1. header bar populated with all categories looks messy, any way to disable categories in header
Can you please help me in changing the header image without that banner i do not want that banner but just want heading and some pictures on the right kindly send the direction in the mail and tell me how much to pay you for removing footer cred.
@georgeferik
open your header.php and find wp_list_categories2 remove the full string save the file check your blog
@word
Open you main index templete index.php search for Todays free videos change it as you like then save the file you are done.
What is the maximum allowable size for a logo and where do I place the image?
Forgot to ask, how to create tabs below the header as found on RedTube for example. Is this very complex for the novice?
Rakesh thank u so much its really work fine thanks
