Title: TP module lost after upgrade
Post by: mbunker on September 04, 2009, 04:15:51 PM
Hi....

my site is www.fsartistrelations.net/Full-Sail/
SMF  1.1.10
TP  v 1.0 beta 4
Both of these have been upgraded recently.

An important part of our site is the download manager.  I can't access it in the panels and blocks and there isn't a link for it on the top bar of the website.

The downloads are still editable (up on the server) but the TPmod seems to be missing.
It is not listed in my packages so I can't apply it.

I have searched TinyPortal for the downloads section for the mod's and seem to be missing that page or link.  I thought perhaps I need to re-install it.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.   :)

Michele

Downloads needs to be installed again from the modules admin in TP

A tab have never been in the menu for downloads unless you add one in manually ( goes for all themes )

I was able to re-install it again in the TP Admin and I can manage the stuff ok.  
However there is a missing link because I can't figure out a way to make the download manager available to my people.  If I try to add it to a panel in blocks and panels nothing shows up.
All I really  need is the weblink to the download manager (the version that people see not admin) then I can create an html link for people to go there.

a possible clue ?....
If I put :
http://fsartistrelations.net/Full-Sail/index.php?action=tpmod;
in my brower  I get the message:
An Error Has Occurred!
Unable to load the 'main' template.




hopefull  :)

How to add a Home button or a new tab? (http://docs.tinyportal.co.uk/index.php?topic=30)

You should be able to follow this guide for creating a new download button.

Thanks...Do I need to know the URL to the DL before I can add a tab or button?

So far I got this to work..
One work around is to use the URL in an html code link.
http://fsartistrelations.net/Full-Sail/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=item24

This works to get one file downloaded... but I would rather figure out the link to the download manager where people can choose from multiple files to download.  This should be a URL similar to the one above.. no?

Almost there  :)

An easy way would be to just create a modules block ( menu block ) and the link will show in there on auto-

Look at my left panel top block, www.familjegodis.se
