Hi
I do not know if I am doing things wrong, but this version if full with problems, I do not know if the developer tested it first before the release or not

1- Upload songs do not work, I create the folder songs, but when you upload songs and click save it show saved, but no songs was uploaded, no error shows too.

2- Album cover and other images for artistes, if you try to update your images, the system keep the old one and do not delate them.

3- Creating menu, when you try to crate new menu for Music Collection for Artists default layout it doesn't show the artist it show the search option, and there is not options for Albums menu, only for a single album.

4- To add a song, you need to go to the album, type the name of the song, click save, then it take out to the album, you need to click again on the album, then edit song, then you can upload the song, why shoud do this in 3 steps, it doens't make sense

5- configuration do not work, I changed the price from Europ to R, but it keep using Euroo in all the site !!!

Hope the developer will reply to this, I do not see the point to pay for something that do not work, there is no free version to test, I expect when I pay do not have all these problems

    HI
    Very strange from your side, how come I am able to login and download your component if I didn't pay for it ?

    Any case I sent you an email with paypal invoice, I sent it to

    joomlamusicsolutions@gmail.com

    The strange is your site, I register before to your forum with other email with use djalilayed, when I purchase your component I use yahoo mail, if I log with my yahoo account which I use to purchase I can't download the component, if I use the other account I can ?

    accounts are ayeddjalil and djalilayed

    Please check your email for paypal payment

    ok, then is just that you used another account to purchase. that's fine.

    your questions:

    1)check that your folder has wirting permissions. also, very important, check that the file you are trying to upload is not bigger than the max_post_size allowed by your PHP (or upload_max_filesize). in case it is, increase this values. to check it, I suggest you to try to upload a small file, just to test. for instance, 500kb.

    2)try to clean the cache

    3)artists view shows arists, wich is an empty page showing search bars (if you enable it on the PARAMETERS) and the introtext, also from the parameters. it is fine! where do you want it to point to?

    4) this is the way it works, it has always been this way. we are working on a new method that can speed things up, but meanwhile, its this way. you can always upload files by FTP and then just write the name on the field for it. that will speed things up a lot for you

    5) that is the only thing I'm aware is a small bug. dont know why, in some installation it does not change the currency even if you do in the parameters. I'll tell you what to modify to make it work. let me a couple hours to fins out the files

    best,
    Germi

    HI
    Thank you for your understanding, I will check with the other points later, for now what I mean by menu for Artists, is to show me the Artist in gril view, for example show lets say 6 at the time with next button what it show is this

    http://jigatunes.com/index.php?option=com_muscol&view=artists&Itemid=41

    Menu was created as

    Artists

    *
    Default Layout

    it the same as if you create

    Search

    *
    Default Layout

    about the album there is only option for menu with one album, it doesnt' give you options to show All the albums you have, it must be in a nice way say 6 albums each page

    but then, what yhou want is an ARTSIT menu item, not ARTISTS!!!

    (notice the final S) if you want to list the albums from an specific artist, you need a menu item of type Music Collection -> Artist

    one of the parameters of this type of menu is, of course, a dropdown in wich you can select the artist itself...

    try it!!

    hello

    then what you want is to show a MODULE in your main landing Music Collection page (thats what I do in my demo)

    how to do it? very easy:
    1) create the module you want to show, for instance, lattest added albums or whatever. Make sure to assing a position to the module that is not being used anywhere in your site. for instance, user4 (lets assume this is not used by you)

    2)go to music collection parameters. on field INTROTEXT (1 or 2, its up to you, depending on if you want to show the module before or after the search bars), and write

    {loadposition user4}

    3) make sure that the parameter "process content plugins" is ON

    4) you're done, save and go to the front end ARTISTS menu and you'll see the module. you can add as many modules as you like!!!!

    open
    /components/com_muscol/views/albums/view.html.php

    on line 87 approx you'll find this :
    $this->assignRef('currency', $params->get('currency'));

    replace it for
    $this->assignRef('currency','R');


    and tell me if it works (on the album view)

    if it does (it should) you'll have to do the same for the artists view on file

    /components/com_muscol/views/albums/view.html.php

    line 50

    this is a temporary solution, because the currency thing should work, but it will work meanwhile

    best,
    Germi

    ok, try this instead:

    $currency = "R";
    $this->assignRef('currency', $currency);


    if it still dont work, let it the way it was at the beginning and I'll try something else (this error you get depends on the PHP version)
