Master/slave embedded videos

[DanS2]

Hi,

is it possible to have slaves linking to the embed pages of the master?

E.g.
I have a master database on mastersite.com
and embeds on mastersite.com/gallery/some-hot-video/index.html

Is there an easy way to have the gallery links on slavesite.com pointing to
mastersite.com/gallery/some-hot-video/index.html
and not to slavesite.com/gallery/some-hot-video/index.html

or would I have to export from mastersite.com?

[admin]

Sure
for example

a href="/scj/cgi/out.php?url=http://master_domain/gallery/<!--GALLERY_SLUG-->/index.html"

[DanS2]

Sure
for example

a href="/scj/cgi/out.php?url=http://master_domain/gallery/<!--GALLERY_SLUG-->/index.html"

do I have to use ?<!--THUMB_LINK--> at the end?

[admin]

Yes like
a href="/scj/cgi/out.php?link=images/<--THUMB_LINK-->&url=http://master_domain/gallery/<!--GALLERY_SLUG-->/index.html"

you can use rewrites to make it shorter and more appalling

[DanS2]

Yes, I am using the rewrite method now. Works fine. Thank you.

Another question:
I have like 800 categories, but only 180 on index.
So I started with letter A to letter G.
How will categories from H to Z get a chance for index rotation?

[admin]

How do you output them ?
if it's 'by clicks' and you have rotation parameter there then it should rotate it

[DanS2]

Yes by clicks.

<category order=clicks num=1-180 min_gallery_count=180 >

[admin]

and they have more then 180 galleries ?
make sure you have all updates and if still doesn't work - PM admin area plz

[DanS2]

Nope, I just have 180 on the index.
But I dont see any other categories getting into the rotation, other than the A-G categories that have been there initially.


Also, my script is not using the best CTR thumbs as category thumbs, it seems to me that it is taking a random thumb from the category. It rarely is really the best thumb.
Settings in system thumbs is set to: First thumb in category.

I am running Build 201501121623 which should be the latest.

[admin]

Yes
Did you PM'ed admin area ?
