[TH] Install and Upgrade [Deleted]

[The Grand Potentate]

@Jon W I just installed this for the first time since its working with my new host for FTP uploads. Nice feature add. Got a few quick questions:

-Why does it keep asking me to register on your website?

-What's the Xenforo License key? I know what the token is but the Key is a new one for me.

-The outdated add-ons are all off. Is this something you're looking into fixing?

-Why does it keep asking me to register on your website?

This is something we are going to be expanding in future. At the moment, it just allows us (and you) to see a list of all your sites. This helps us with troubleshooting any problems you have. We won't do anything else without your permission.

-What's the Xenforo License key? I know what the token is but the Key is a new one for me.

Its the 8 digit code in the file name when you download XenForo. This is not important and will update automatically if you do a 1-click upgrade of XenForo.

-The outdated add-ons are all off. Is this something you're looking into fixing?

This is something we are constantly looking to improve, although we really do rely on having a large number of customers as it is data from users of this add-on that is used to alert whether there is a new version. We then have to filter out false positives such as unreleased versions on developers' machines but that is much harder to do when we only have a small data set. So please leave reviews and spread the word!!

@Jon W When I go into upgrade add-ons i cannot select any of the add-ons to upgrade. Same with the Outdated add-ons. I have my Xenforo token stored. Am I missing a setting?

In order to select an add-on you have to have installed it using a URL. That way it will know where to get the update from.

Ok, so where do I add in the URL to fetch the addon?

When you install/upgrade, instead of uploading a file or entering a filename, enter a URL.

Ohhhhhhhhh. I would have had no idea about that.

@Jon W,

You should be able to clear the outdated addons, so you don't see the number forever.

@Jon W, nvm its almost 7 am and I just didn't notice things .

Still a great suggestion though. Sometimes it is wrong so an ability to "mark as read" would be good.

Jon W updated Install and Upgrade by Waindigo with a new update entry:

Version 1.3.2 released

New features:

• Added ability to install add-on by add-on title. Just start typing the name of the add-on, select the name from the auto-complete suggestions, and click 'Install'. Currently this only works for Waindigo add-ons.
• Added ability to delete stored credentials.

Read the rest of this update entry...

Should I be getting this error every time I try to upgrade addons? And should I be able to check the addons in the list? I am currently un able to check any addons in the outdated addons list....

It's not an error. You can only check add-ons that you installed by using a URL. If you use a URL to upgrade them then you will be able to check the box next time there is an update.

Hello @Jon W ,

a question - i use, like many others, the bd widget framework add-on. I also use this in there latest version with the version ID 103 (WF 2.6.0 beta) - why tells me your add-on, this add-on is not up to date?

WF 2.5.9 :
version string - 2.5.9
version ID - 102

WF 2.6.0 Beta
Version string - 2.6.0-dev
version ID - 103

Any idea?

And a bug - the message on home screen "There are add-ons that may be outdated. Click here to review them." is displayed, but no add-ons to update.
I have several add-ons deactivated in the settings for looking if new updates aviable or not, if this have to do with.

And who can i translate this message? I dont found it in my phrases.

regards

Spoiler: my own error never mind

@Jon W I've noticed your installer doesn't handle addons which use the init_dependencies listener.

When attempting to install my own addon Email Transport to /Dev/Null it throws the error;

Callback SV_DevNullEmail_Listener::init_dependencies is invalid (Invalid Class).

This happens for 1.2., 1.3.1 and 1.3.2, But if I copy the files up it works, which defeats the point.

Additionally, validateLicenseToken will attempt to validate an empty token and then when it fails set it to empty:

Waindigo_InstallUpgrade_ControllerAdmin_Upgrade::actionIndex

  if (!$installUpgradeModel->validateLicenseToken($licenseValidationToken) &&
  !$xenOptions->waindigo_installUpgrade_bypassLicenseCheck) {

As for 1.3.2, it keeps requiring XF credentials which I simply do not want to store or even have to enter to install an addon I have a zip for.

Waindigo_InstallUpgrade_ControllerHelper_InstallUpgrade::checkForTitle(); will also trigger the addon to talk to your site and then to XF even when I'm providing a zipped file.

This is contrary to your statement this addon only talks to your site when opt-ed in.

Maybe a screenshot? When it asks you?

Go in your ACP->Options->Install and Upgrade



And disable this. The problem could be this @Anton_Bodryachkom .
