I've just tried to install UMP (both trough Umbraco packages and direct download, in both Umbraco 7.2, U 6.1 and 6.2) and it went well up to the point where I expected to be able to install one or more providers. The list is empty. Just the section "Install Providers" (see screenshot bellow). I went as far as disabling the windows firewall and/or other services that might block the repository.
Am I missing something? Is this package still "alive"?
I have just looked at the page for the package, and I can see is it a very old package, it´s from 2010. I don´t think this package is compatible with Umbraco 7 and 6. In Umbraco 7 the property editors is made with Angular Js, and there have been some difference in the API from Umbraco 4, to 6 and again to Umbraco 7.
If you can try to describe what you are trying to achieve perhaps I know some similar packages that would work with Umbraco 6 and Umbraco 7.
Thank for reply. Well, I need a Vimeo picker data type to integrate with media section, and show all videos under a vimeo pro account. Not a general video/media picker/embed. There is one package avaliable, but it's very basic, out of date and only lists 20 items.(https://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/vimeo-picker-datatype)
According to the listing page, UMP is at least compatible with U 6.1.
Perhaps you can digg into the source code and have a look to see if you can fix the issue? http://ump4umb.codeplex.com/ - As such the code should not be version specific even though many things have changed under the hood in Umbraco since the release of this package.
I just tried to install on 7.2.4 and I could not get the installer to finish since I got an error in the installation dialogue. So something should probably be changed in order to make it compatible with later releases.
Otherwise I guess it's a matter of going the long way making a custom picker suited for your project.
Perhaps this package can help you. https://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/vimeo-picker-datatype I must admit that I haven´t try it myself. But in Umbraco 7 you also have the option to embed a video into the rich text editor by using the embed option, and I know it supports YouTube, and Vimeo.
Dennis: that's the package I was reffering to in my first post. Out of date (old Vimeo API) and only lists 20 items. Beside, I need this for a custom field, not rich text.
Warren Buckley has made a package where you can get YouTube videos from a YouTube channel https://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/youtube Then you can pick videos to show on the page. Perhaps you can get some inspiration on how it´s done and make it to support Vimeo.
No providers
