Title: Support for Joomla Content Plugin - [Fixed in 3.2.25 !!!]
Post by: vishvas on 24.01.2015 06:07:06
Hi,

First of all many thanks to the developer for this Awesome component for downloads.

I want to use this component for a non-profit charity organisation in which I am a full time volunteer.

Everything is going fine except one issue. I need support for Joomla content plugin in the description area to use it in my website. I read the documentation carefully and did the same as described but somehow none of the joomla content plugin is working in the description area of the component. I am using latest version of joomla i.e. ver. 3.3.6 and jDownloads Version 3.2.24 beta.


But the componet is not rendering the joomla content plugins.

Can you help me figure out what I am doing wrong?

Hi,
which plugin have you tried?

Hi Arno,

Thanks for the reply!!

I have tried two plugins.

First is  MP3 browser fork - Plugin to create a formatted table of MP3s - Place the tags {music}folderName/subfolder{/music} in any content item.
The plugin will strip the tags and replace it with a table containing all the MP3s from that folder for playing or downloading.


The other one I tried for testing purpose is - content plugin of Akeeba Release system.
Both of them are not working.

Update:

After reading your reply I thought to try some other plugin and I tried {loadmodule mod_login} just to test.

And this plugin is working as expected. but not the mp3 fork plugin.

Can you post a link for the mp3 plugin?
What mean you with 'fork'? Have you modified this plugin?

Nope, I have not modified that plugin. The link of that plugin is http://extensions.joomla.org/profile/extension/multimedia/multimedia-players/mp3-browser-fork

Hi,
i have found the problem.
The mp3 plugin will have at first a 'introtext' field which exist only in the Joomla article contents.
So i must modify it a little bit. You can download the changed file below. Copy the unzipped file to this folder: plugins/content/mp3browser.
But please note that you will lost this again when you update this plugin!!! But maybe can you use the override functionality.

I have also found a bug in jDownloads for the content plugin support. Only a problem when you set the option 'Plugin Support only for descriptions?' in configuration to 'No'.

With 'Yes' should it work.

This bug is fixed in next version.
