Check your error_log to see if it helps, if not try WP-DBBackup as an alternative plugin.

Hi there,
I am using WP-DBManager and have updated to the latest version.
All work fine but “E-mail database backup file to: email@adress” won’t send any Backup file.
With click on Email button it opens a blanc page and nothing happens.
Any idea what is going wrong?

Thanks

@Displayname: Wouldn’t it be easier for you to search for it? http://lesterchan.net/wordpress/2008/06/09/warning-cannot-yet-handle-mbcs-in-html_entity_decode/

I’m also getting the Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in /wp-postratings/wp-postratings.php on line 637. My host uses php 5.2.5 so it should work. Any known fixes?

The dashboard widget is working for me in 2.6. check out my WP-ServerInfo.

BTW i have tried your http://lesterchan.net/wordpress/2008/03/19/dashboard-widget-without-controls-sample-plugin/ plugin and it seems it does not work on 2.6 (what is bad, as i am unable to find how to make a dashboard widget without other plugins).

Noted, I think I going to change to /files/ instead of /files/downloads/ as that is the default directory for wp-downloadmanager =D

Whoops, the second modification is not complete: it works only on MU.

This is the correct one:

if (isset($blog_id)) {
if(!is_dir(WP_CONTENT_DIR.’/blogs.dir/’ . $blog_id . ‘/files/downloads/’)) {
mkdir(WP_CONTENT_DIR.’/blogs.dir/’ . $blog_id . ‘/files/downloads/’, 0777, true);
}
}
else {
if(!is_dir(WP_CONTENT_DIR.’/files/downloads/’)) {
mkdir(WP_CONTENT_DIR.’/files/downloads/’, 0777, true);
}
}

My school is starting soon, I so I am guessing end of the year when 2.7 is released.

By: Nemo

Nemo — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 08:19:27 +0000

@Lester: good, I am glad of that. The 1.40 release will be the next one?
Regarding the slug, well, I guessed that!

Bye bye.

By: Lester Chan

Lester Chan — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 08:04:20 +0000

@Nemo, Thanks for the modifications, I will add them into 1.40 =D Regarding the slug name it will require more work then id to check for it.

Ah, one more thing: it would be nice (but not strictly necessary) to change the “nice urls” in wp-downloadmanager from “/download/” to “/download/slug-of-the-download-name”. What do you think about it?
