Steph40 Posted September 14, 2017 Posted September 14, 2017 Is there anyways to create a support topic after a file as been posted. There are 2 plugins in marketplace for that but they don't seem to work with 4.2.4 is there any other way?
AndyF Posted September 14, 2017 Posted September 14, 2017 On previous versions there was a tool to build them. I think there was (at one point) code to generate it on edit if they were enabled but currently no. As this relates to here rather than your site , the above is not relevant. Generally you would create a topic in Marketplace Topics and put a link in the Support Info box, I can do this for you if needed but you should be able to do that upon editing it anyway. If you are not able to create a new topic in that forum for your files then simply create the support topic in the 'Test Forum' instead, ensure its formatted correctly with a link to the file etc, and then fire a quick PM to me with a link to it and I'll move the new topic to the correct location for you.
Adriano Faria Posted September 14, 2017 Posted September 14, 2017 I think he means in Downloads app itself. If so, it is a category feature:
AndyF Posted September 14, 2017 Posted September 14, 2017 Yes I was not sure as the original post mentions Marketplace so I tried to cover both "own site" and "here" as well with regard to what to do if you wanted a topic. There is no current "check and create topics" if you switch the category from "no topics" to "topics" though unfortunately. I *think* that might make a re-appearance at a future point as its quite useful.

The irony is more that I have issue about my own support topics on my site, they have a plugin for support topic with no support topic. I totaly understand not supporting free files everyone needs to make a living.
