Fixed

mtha - any chance we could get associated product XML at least displayed, and maybe the option to create a basic bitfield or cpnav skeleton? I don't expect full XML editing in the APM (yet!! LOL!), but it would be nice to at least have a table showing any associated XML files, and the ability to peek at them without having to jump on ssh or download them.

well, no. not at the current time.

If you forget to fill out the Version field when adding install / uninstall code, it doesn't throw any errors, and the feedback says the changes have been saved ... but they haven't.

Dont see that error, or it's been fixed on the way

Speaking of which. I do have one slightly more than trivial issue I just noticed with one of the projects in my list. It's a fairly large on (the first beta release of SirAdrian's vBlogetin). The APM outputs it fine, except that it truncates the output at the end of the first setting group.

The product has three distinct settings groups, but APM gets as far as the last entry in the first group, and stops there. It doesn't even print the content of the last entry in that first group, it just prints the title line.

There is no Save button, and the usual footer stuff (including the debug info) is missing as well.

I couldnt find vBlogetin on the site here, so cant test. anyway, I clean up and fix some table on vboptions. Try again and see if it is fixed.

Another issue I've run across ... I don't know if this is APM, or a generic vB problem, but when I try and create a new template in a new product I'm working on, when it saves it tells me "Invalid product ID", even tho I have definitely selected my new product from the dropdown on the new template page.

Dont see the problem. Try to upgrade to the newest version and see if you still get the error?

1. A way to add/change the autor in phrases
2. A way to add/change version numbers in phrases
3. A way to add/change phrase date in phrases

They are all in phrases, aint they?

ok installed and it seems to work ill let you know if i get any issues but so far its fine.

[Paul M]

If I try and add install code I just get an "Invalid Product Specified" error when clicking save.

Edit - this only seems to be if previous install code exists.

[Spiffware]

if u read his txt uninstall out virsion and install new one it works fine.
