Hi

Tried to use widget on files page (downloads)

widget is set to show files (on actual files page). Dropped it horizontally right under normal stuff there (see screen shot pointing to where I put it)

Screenshot provided in "about this file" for random block widget shows that files should look as attached. but instead it looks nothing like this. Did not look right. Was doing a vertical view even in horizontally placed block and also formatted as if topic instead of files. Needs to look like screen shot.

Please help.

Thank you :)

right, it shows like a vertical topic list when I drop it in horizontal mode ON THE files page.  IE: dropped my widget into my market place (where the red arrow is pointing in screen shot I provided)

ON THE files page

You're saying FILES PAGE but it seems to be Downloads Index,right? If so, works fine:

It will show this template regardless the page it is dropped; it's the orientation it takes into consideration.

I thank you for the video. Your video shows exactly what I want. However, on my site it does something different even if I follow exactly as you did it here.

Any ideas?

No, sorry. It's a widget. It recognizes the orientation (vertical or horizontal).

Did you try to clear cache, reinstall, etc?

The only reason for this happen, according to the script, is missing the File Feed widgets in your Donwloads install, which I don't believe, then it would use the list template I've done.

@Kjell Iver Johansen, do you have Downloads? Can you test this above if you do?

You can narrow it by number of days or by pinned, featured, etc. It’s in the widget settings:

I don't have those selections.. Tried to change language and skin.. not possible..

Hello

 

Will this display attachments linked to forum posts as images?

No. It's a widget. It will display basic info, like item (topic, file, image, etc), title, submit date, etc.

I relaise its a widget, I was just hoping that it may grab images stored as attachements to forum posts as well as the gallery. My sites picutres are storesd as attachments and I'd like to have them as a reel liek you have shown.

Display Block permissions doesn't work like expected. I added 3 random content blocks to my forum front page, all have set no permission for guests. But 2 are showing to guests, 1 not.

I guess this application just takes the permission I gave in the applications by self and overwrites what I choose in the random content block setting. Could you check this please. Thanks.

Edit: I surround this adding the random content in a page block and set the permission there. But users without pages application will not have this opportunity.

Hi Adriano, if I have a random image block and click on an image using a tablet the image is not loading on the first time. Only after a page reload.

On a mobile phone there is no close button for the image and it's looking some kind of weird too.

Could you check this please? Thanks.

Can reproduce it on the default theme. And just seen, if I move the tablet from horizontal to vertical it shows the image, and if moving back it vanishes.

I can confirm this. Probably missing a JS there. Will take a look today/tomorrow.
