What is DnnTube?
Have you ever tried to display YouTube content in your DNN portal? Wish you could edit, upload, delete, videos in your YouTube account without having to leave your portal to do so? I do to and after much looking I wasnt able to find many solutions for DNN and YouTube integration.
DnnTube is a module for DotNetNuke to allow portal users to fully integrate YouTube functionality into their pages. Making use of the available YouTube Api DnnTube will provide a seemless integration. The initial release of this module will contain modules to perform the following: video listing, a video player, video data editing, and video upload. These modules will handle authentication with YouTube by either sending the user to Google to login, or by allowing users to link their YouTube login to their DNN user account eliminating the need to log in to both YouTube and your portal.
