Add-on Install & Upgrade 1.4.3

[Tealk]

this is the file structure

 

[Chris D]

And what about inside the "upload" folder?

EDIT: Wait... what's the file in there called "upload"? Is that the rar file?

 

[Tealk]

Here if i extract the rar file
under the line the content from the "upload" folder

 

[Chris D]

So the ZIP file contains an upload folder, an XML and a RAR version of the upload folder?

I imagine that it's some sort of mistake. But I think that the fact it is called "upload" is what is confusing my code and therefore causing that to be uploaded to the root.

@xfrocks might want to look at repackaging it. The existence of the rar file is fine, but it should probably have a different name.

This is the first time I've seen a set up like that so mostly everything is working as expected. It's just this anomaly seems to be throwing it off somewhat.

 

[Tealk]

if i open the rar with winarar i see there a file with name "upload" but if i unrar it there no file (my first screen: open the rar with winrar, the second one i have unrar)

Just a quick update to fix issue reported by @Jeff Berry here.

Also re-added a some missing directories from the download package.

Hmm, no. The zip contains the xml file and the upload folder. @Tealk probably used WinRAR and he thought the zip is a rar file (if you install WinRAR on Windows, the icon of the file is changed).

I thought that too and then this screenshot confused me.

What's the second "upload" thing?

If you don't mind sending me a copy I will do some testing.

Just sent you. It should extract this way.

Hi @Chris D could you add support to check updates to others custom URLs apart from xenforo.com?

Because many developers update the latest version addons in your own sites first and forget to update here in xenforo.com.

For example @xfrocks has updated the latest version of your [bd] Cache addon in his own site to 1.0.7 version on September 17
https://xfrocks.com/resources/bd-cache.8/updates

But here even the addon is in version 1.0.6 six days have elapsed and even not yet updated.
https://xenforo.com/community/resources/bd-cache.2763/updates

That happens with several developers, for example you have your own site too, and I think you release in your site first then in Xenforo community.

Thanks!

@Chris D https://xenforo.com/community/resources/xenmods-search-filter-exclude-forums.3476/ - this addon is always displayed an ready to update, but when i click on the update button, he says that the last version are installed. How can i fix it?

 

[GliX]

And why phrase admin_navigation_UpdateCheck looks like "Update Checker [1]"? If i try to translate it, number is not updating.

 

[Chris D]

It can only do a very simple comparison check between versions so that if the version in your Admin CP differs from th version in the Resource Manager it will think there is an update available.

There is an "Ignore This Update" button, though, so that should suppress the update until the version changes in the future.

Because there is 1 update available.

The number part can't be changed, it's added programatically.

 

[Chris D]

Actually, if you translate the phrase.

Don't change the bit that says {updates}:

Update Checker {updates}

The bit in red should remain untranslated (that's the bit that's converted into a number).

 

[GliX]

Don't change the bit that says {updates}

Thanks, everything works as expected.

@Chris D
How about my suggestion?

[Chris D]

I saw it.

I don't comment on suggestions generally. It has been suggested before.

 

[m1ne]

if i update or install a plugin the .rar and the install.xml are all time in the root folder

Always done this for me too, thought it was intended.

 

[Chris D]

Just for the Social Share add-on though, right?
