Re: smd_remote_file: Manage remote URL downloads via TXP's Files tab
It´s been a while since the last post on this topic.
This plugin would be exactly what I would need for project.
Is there any chance to get it working fo 4.7.1 ?
I installed it but it seems to do nothing. There is just no URL tab in the files section which I expected to be there after reading the Help text of that plugin. So I think it is just not made for 4.7.1 right?

Sure, nothing to stop it working, it probably just needs the callbacks modifying to comply with the latest changes, and to have the markup tweaked for the new admin side layout.
I’ll see if I can hack it for 4.7 as soon as I can.

Hi Bloke, did you find the time to update the plugin for 4.7.1?

Ack, no sorry. I’ll try and do it this weekend.

Ahem, I started it but never completed the task as I got sidetracked, really sorry. Will try and make amends over the next few days.

Hi Bloke, could you do something? I do not want to rush, but I need the plugin for a project. Unfortunately, I’m not a programmer, but I’m a designer. I can do the UX design of the plugin, if it helps you. I need the plugin only for the internal files. Many Thanks

While Bloke may get to an update soon, the plugin is most useful for managing external files through Textpattern. If you can elaborate on what you’re trying to achieve with internal files (I presume you mean files uploaded to the /files directory), there may be another way of achieving the same result?
For example, if you are using it to show an associated cover image, you could probably also either swap the extension of the filename from .pdf to .jpg or similar or you could also use my jcr_file_custom which gives you a custom field that you could use to relate a file to an image ID.

Re: smd_remote_file: Manage remote URL downloads via TXP's Files tab
Hello, I have the plugin installed on an existing page. Files can only be downloaded via a login (currently about 800 files). That’s why I can not use an alternative plugin. Nevertheless, many thanks for your help.
