Product version check url and product help url - what to do to make it works?

[NLP-er]

Hello

I just made my first 2 mods and I thought that it is enough if in product file I will set urls with my product id, so for example if my product id is autotaggerfromcontentandtitle

then I just set in product file:

<url><![CDATA[https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?do=producthelp&pid=autotaggerfromcontentandtitle]]></url>
<versioncheckurl><![CDATA[https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?do=productcheck&pid=autotaggerfromcontentandtitle]]></versioncheckurl>

But it's not working

Going to any of those urls gives me:
Invalid product specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator

So what I need to do to makes those work?

When you uploaded the product, did you enter the correct pid in the Mod Product ID area of the mod settings?

Yes - copy paste. But I see right now that it is truncated Column in db is too short for my id... So what now? Next release only to change product id and tell everyone that previous version don't support version control?... Or there is some other solution?

Not a real surprise it gets truncated. The productid column in the database (product table) is only 25 characters long in vB 3.8. So using a productid of 29 characters will never work. Not in the product and also not in the productcheck URL.

Any chance you made change on column size?

+ it would be good to describe limitations in manual and even better in product file schema
