Right-click downloads no longer work. How do I revert to previous version and disable updates?! about downthemall-legacy HOT 27 CLOSED

Can you give an example of such an affected website please?

from downthemall-legacy.

OK, I have more information regarding this issue. The problem is with dTa! version 3. Apparently the auto-update kicked in today without my knowing it. If I install dTa version 2.0.19, the problem goes away. I am able to once again right-click a Nitroflare download link, click on "Save Link with DownThem All" or "Save link with dTa! OneClick' and get the expected behavior. Now my question is, HOW DO I TURN OFF AUTO-UPDATES in dTa?

from downthemall-legacy.

Hi nmaier, I have been using a "premium" Nitroflare account for over an year, so I don't know if this will help you: http://nitroflare.com/view/F1F60D6C87E1A66/rufus_harley_scotch_soul_WPCR-27320_ARTWORK.rar. Thanks!
Damn! I accidentally closed the issue, SORRY!

Does the link you posted work for you when trying to add it from this very github issue page?

from downthemall-legacy.

If you mean, does the download work when I paste the link in the URL box of the browser--yes, it does.

from downthemall-legacy.

No, I mean, on this website (the github issue you created), clicking right-clicking the nitro link you posted in downthemall/downthemall#51 (comment) and using Save Link with dTa! OneClick, does that work?

from downthemall-legacy.

I am currently not using Firefox to view this github page, so dTa is not available. Hold on while I try to pull up this page in Firefox...

from downthemall-legacy.

OK, now I need to revert dTa! to version 3.0.5...

from downthemall-legacy.

Yes I am able to right-click the link above in dTa! and get the expected behavior.

from downthemall-legacy.

However, let me try this link:

from downthemall-legacy.

That works in dTa 3.0.5 also. So there's something about the Nitroflare download page that dTa! 3.0.5 is choking on that version 2.0.19 had no problem with...

from downthemall-legacy.

Interesting... that narrows things down a bit... Do you have an example of a webpage with nitro links in it that shows the error?

from downthemall-legacy.

Do you mean a screenshot?
Or do you mean a different webpage than

from downthemall-legacy.

oh, ok, that already was the website, not the actually download link... got confused for a second there, sorry.

Can reproduce this on that website myself and I think I know what the problem is

from downthemall-legacy.

I don't know that I can find a "non-premium" Nitroflare web page that has a direct link to a file. You know how these so-called premium hosters are: To get to the actual free download link, you have to click through advertising and exhortations to purchase premium. And half the time the free link doesn't work. So I don't know I can find any such animal. Whoops, sorry, didn't see your post.

from downthemall-legacy.

yip, I was no able to reproduce this and fix it... An updated DTA 3 should be out in a couple of days, maybe earlier

from downthemall-legacy.

Great! Thanks Nils for your help. I'm going to donate again right now!

from downthemall-legacy.

15 Euros are on the way! I've never had such great tech support!

from downthemall-legacy.

Thanks and thanks 😀

from downthemall-legacy.

Actually, if you want to test it is fixed

• Disable the regular DTA in the add-on manager
• Install our nightly from https://code.downthemall.net/nightly/downthemall-nightly-trunk.xpi

Or just wait...

from downthemall-legacy.

It worked! And that's even though I neglected to disable DTA first before install the nightly builds. Thanks again. I will send another 15 euros because this program has saved me a LOT of time and it looks like it's getting better. Thank you Nils and have a nice rest of the day or night or whatever it is where you are.

4:20am actually... My sleep schedule is messed up a bit at the moment due to handling the fallout of the new DTA version

from downthemall-legacy.

It's 8:20 pm here. I understand how a brand-new major release can cause loss of sleep and sanity. Take care!

from downthemall-legacy.

Whoops, there's a side-effect of this fix. The downloads work, but I am getting two versions of everything. That is, if I choose "Save Link with DownThem All" I get two dialogue windows and if I choose "Save link with dTa! OneClick," 2 downloads of the same linked file start up in the DTA manager. Should I open a new bug report?

from downthemall-legacy.

Probably because you didn't disable the other DownThemAll! first. Try restarting the browser

from downthemall-legacy.

Still seeing double. I am going to remove DTA and reinstall the nightly builds.

from downthemall-legacy.

Yup, that was it. When I went into the extensions manager in Firefox, I saw that I had two versions of DTA installed: 3.0.5 and the nightly builds. Thanks again!
