Add-on Update Notifier 1.1.8

No permission to download
Weird, I didn't ignore this add-on. The previous update (1.18.0) was also not detected.

I can confirm the same for me. At least the last two updates of Standard Library were not detected. Can't remember if they were prior to that.

I also think the Standard Library add-on was also one of Xon's showing odd versioning previously.

But other update notifications work for you?
 
+1, other add-ons no issues.
I think the latest update of Xon's Redis cache add-on was also not detected, but I already updated i to the latest version so I can't check.
 
Interesting.. Need to check the logs if there is some problem with your servers check-ins or callbacks...
I'm not able to provide server logs because this is XF Cloud. I could ask XF support but don't think it is worth the hassle.
 
Actually, it seems this is related to the slightly funky versioning format that XoN uses for some of his add-ons.

I have some ideas for how to fix this for these add-ons so that it still works, albeit a bit slower when he releases new versions of those affected add-ons, but still within a relatively fast timeframe :D

Once we have it ready we'll post an update here :)

Except for StandardLib, all of my add-ons are moving to the same scheme of using a unix timestamp for the version_id attribute in addon.json and depending on the version_string for any add-on requirement checks.
 
mazzly updated Add-on Update Notifier with a new update entry:

Backend updated to support Xon's new versioning

Since @Xon has started using a special versioning format to streamline their development, we needed to update our backend to be able to map their released version_string values to the actual version_id values used.

This is a backend change so there is no need for updating the add-on on your site, and you should start getting update notifications for Xon's add-ons correctly again. 👍

Read the rest of this update entry...
 
I have another request @mazzly!

The download button links to the developers site to download the add-on update.
But for free add-ons, it would be quicker to use the direct download link on Xenforo (for free add-ons).

I think it used to work this way, but at some point changed.
Maybe there was a good reason for this? But the direct download was very convenient :)
