Thanks for the heads up. I think it's better I keep the existing attachments metadata as some are almost 20 years old. It's not a huge inconvenience; the main reason I was going to alter the old posts was to automatically account for any URL changes in future and there are other ways I can get...

I understand. There isn't a way to manually move the existing ones to the filesystem is there? At least I'm not aware of a way.

Yes, any new MP3 attachments I add after upgrading to 2.2 work as expected. But attachments prior to the upgrade do not exhibit the same behaviour.

No, so far I've only tried it in the original post.

I have a number of mp3 attachments added prior to XF 2.2. I use an MP3 BB code to render them as playable within the post but with the arrival of audio support in 2.2 I thought I would convert the previous entries so everything is uniform. But when I add the attachments manually using the...

Oh right, I understand. I guess maybe something within the ACP prompt that prevents clicking through unless the files are present. The prompt can't be controlled by the files I deleted as I saw it. Not that I would make the same mistake again, it might just prevent someone else coming here with...

I had a chance to take a closer look today. You were indeed correct in that I had deleted the install directory. I uploaded the entire package manually and the upgrade went without a hitch. I'm assuming then that there is no risk inherent in not deleting the install directory? Perhaps the...

No protection or permissions on the directory. I'm mobile at the moment so I can't check the contents of the download right now. My last few upgrades were done automatically through the ACP without issue, but I don't recall removing the directory. It may be possible that I have done so; I...

I did repeat the process with the same results. I will try it again on another of my sites.

Thanks for the information. I was aware that I could do that, but as I didn't see any threads here regarding this issue I assumed it was a bug. Although on reflection I guess it's not a problem with my local install of XF itself but rather what is getting served from the XF server.

I fired up the ACP 'auto upgrade' on one of my sites which is pretty much a stock install. It seems that when it downloads the package, 3 files are missing. I get a 404 error when at the next stage in the process when it's looking for https://site.url/install/oc-upgrader.php. My ACP reports 3...

To have the overall XFMG or individual nodes from it feed into a 'forum' on the forum list, à la "Search Forums" would be a great future feature.

When using vBulletin I used vBSEO to alter my URL structure and it seemed to reap benefits for me in terms of result ranking, at least on obscure search terms. url.ext/forum-name url.ext/thread-id/thread-name I thought I had researched my choice of XF pretty well but I didn't research Route...

Hi there. I signed up for the 7 day trial of the product on your website but the download that is provided to me is not Link Checker but an add-on for the Resource Manager. I filed a support ticket but I have not received a response.

OK I actually figured it out. It was a setting I had enabled. It was my own host limiting the use of the service as an anti spam measure. I was logged into an account that was registered to a Gmail address and I had the following setting enabled. I knew my host had no 'restrictions' but I...
