Anomaly uploading file from Internet Settings

Post by nking »

I am trying to use tnetwebtags.php and the setup requires placing tnetwebtags.txt in C:\Cumulus\ this information is then in reflected in “local filenames setting”, but I’m not seeing the data on my website. When I look in the Cumulus folder I see a new file tnetwebtags.txttmp which is being created with the fields populated. I thought this might be because I had “use ftp rename” ticked, but removing the tick makes no difference as the tmp file is still being created/updated whereas the original txt file is not.

I am currently having issues with my server regarding php so I may be jumping to the wrong impression that Cumulus may not be processing the file as expected. Anyone else using this feature with build 927?

Your populated tnetwebtags.php is in your web 'root' directory ;)

The anomaly is me :oops: I had assumed that the remote file would be placed in the directory specified in site options. :bash:

You have to specify the full path for all the 'extra' files, so that you're not restricted to putting them all in the same place.

Neil, I just checked and the file is there (in the folder where the other Cumulus files are located). It also contains the up-to-date data.

With the TNet webtag files, you have two ways of checking its data:
- a view of the source code with the values replaced using the following: 'tnetwebtags.php?view=sce'
- a detailed view of the tags and their values using the following: 'tnetwebtags.php?parse=sce'
