I noticed that the 'delete' function in the file controller and the folder controller seem to be basically the same. Why not make both of these classes inherit from MediaController and put the delete function there instead?

Please opem a tracker on joomlacode and reference here.

I would be happy to do that if only I could stay logged in to joomlacode long enough. I have posted here multiple times about this problem. Am I the only one? I log in, click a link or two and suddenly I'm logged out again. It happens no matter what browser I use, whether I access from home or work, mac or windoze. Does that site actually function for some people? What's the secret?

You usually have to log in twice. No idea why but it seems to work.

Well, look, I managed to fight my way to the tracker submission page (twice) and submit the issue. But, of course, I was logged out as soon as I clicked the submit button and the issue did not appear in the list.

Is there any person actually responsible for joomlacode who I could get some support from? Or was that site just set up years ago and left to rot? I see that issues have been posted to the tracker as recently as yesterday (or maybe it's today, I'm probably a day ahead) so it seems to work for somebody. What is the secret? No, logging in twice doesn't change a thing.

Actually, I can go into more detail about the login problem. If I log in at http://joomlacode.org/gf/account/?action=Login I will get in and be redirected to 'My Page'. But almost any action gets me logged out and sent back to the login page with a 'redirect' parameter. If I submit the login form while that parameter is in the url, I will always just end up back at the same login form. The only way I can successfully log in is to remove that parameter, but then I end up back at 'My Page' and unable to get to other pages without being logged out again. I'm trying to be patient with this thing but it's quite frustrating.

Yes it works really well for dozens of people everyday. I've asked Sam to take a look at if there is a problem with your account.

elinw, thanks, I hope it can be fixed soon.

realityking, thanks for the feedback. I think I should first modify the upload function so that it works whether Filedata is an array or not (well, it's always an array but you know what I mean). After that, it will up to the template to either use this feature or stick with single file uploads. As to the doctype, do you know if there is any plan to switch to HTML5 or any reason not to do so?

I'm pretty sure we're gonna switch to the HTML5 Doctype for 3.0, not sure we wanna touch that for 2.5.

Personally I don't mind the invalid attribute too much, also I'd be willing to trade the small change required to layout overrides for simpler code but at the end that's a call to be made by leadership.

Oh, and I've added a couple of functions but I didn't add a '@since'. What will be the next version?

As you can see, getting it to work properly whether or not multiple is set in the template doesn't really complicate the code in any significant way. Probably better to be a little more robust and backward compatible here. That being said, the built in templates don't seem to override this page. Maybe some 3rd party ones do? Are there 3rd party admin templates?

There are a few other admin templates, for example AdminPraise.

I see. Well, in any case, this change should not break the functionality of any template.

Slight change of subject so maybe I should start a new thread but this looks pretty good. I might try to write a module for it if I have some spare time. Any thoughts?

@elinw Any word from sam about this joomlacode problem?

@elinw

I seem to have worked this out. It looks like it was something to do with my company's network after all. I don't understand it but at least I have a solution.

Now, to post a report (and I have several) I need to associate it with a 'project'? There are heaps of projects on joomlacode, most of them look like 3rd party plugins. Is there a project just for com_media or would this be considered as part of some core Joomla project? I also have things to post about CodeMirror, what project would that be listed as?

This will link you right to the CMS Bug Tracker: http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/tracker/?action=TrackerItemBrowse&tracker_id=8103

Here you go:

And also:
http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/tracker/?action=TrackerItemEdit&tracker_item_id=28630

No don't do a project, you want this to be part of the core Joomla cms
project.
