Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] cno_replace_file
I’m finding the file is replaced with the newly uploaded file, but it’s given the file name of the file it is replacing.

It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] cno_replace_file
Oh right, would it be a better feature if it updated the file name if it is different? Forgot to say thanks for the plugin in first post.

Doesn’t seem to work for me either, I am using a lot of other plugins, though none that mess with the file area… Well perhaps the admin facelift?

I had the same problem of mrdale and yes… it’s caused by the admin facelift wich adds class=“upload-form” to the form element. To make it work again you just have to change in the plugin code this line:
$form ='<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="index.php" method="post">'.with this:
$form ='<form class="upload-form" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="index.php" method="post">'.Offline

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] cno_replace_file
ooops! please ignore my previous post, I was wrong, it has nothing to do with the admin facelift.
This plugin doesn’t work for me..
when I try to replace a file I get a message about the file folder not being writeable, but it is!
Besides, if I search for files filtered by category in the default “upload file” form, my bowser (tried with firefox and ie) asks if I want to download the file “index.php”…
ps I’ve already tried disabling all other plugins and I get the same results with txp 4.04 and txp 4.05.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] cno_replace_file
I installed this on TXP 4.0.5 but I don’t see any difference. Where is the ‘replace’ link supposed to be?
All plugin creators should use screenshots liberally :)
ps> yes, I enabled it ;)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] cno_replace_file
You have to choose first a file to replace to make it appear

I follow an ‘edit’ link for a file and I still don’t see any ‘replace’ link.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] cno_replace_file
Isn’t there a form with a “replace” button? …note that it looks like the one on the “files” tab so it can be easily overlooked.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] cno_replace_file
A ‘form’??
Here is a screenshot. If there is any ‘replace’ button I must be going blind or mad…

Frankly I think it’s a great feature because what I hope to do with this plugin (haven’t installed it yet, knock on wood that it works for me) is enable a client to upload his bio, which he updates from time to time and needs to have as a downloadable Word doc for concert venues, etc. And I don’t want to have to change the link location every time he updates his bio.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] cno_replace_file
Update:
Just my luck, it doesn’t work for me and I have no idea how to enable output buffering. Didn’t find instructions some posts above very clear, alas.

First check if you have enabled output buffering for textpattern.
No idea how to do this.

Checked for this; don’t find it. I’m not quite sure how “problem with the admin facelift” can be addressed.
Am using 4.0.5.
