Hello, I have installed the first two patches from Andreas, and a German translation created. Warning - this is not an official version. More information and Download at: [[http://tokeek.de/doku.php?id=wiki:dokuwiki-plugins|Tokeek.de]], please test and feedback to me.

Any reason why in my DokuWiki installation (''2009-02-14'') the plugin just won't create the ''_media/*'' files? (thus reporting all my files as 0 downloads) --  --- //[[luis.machuca@gulix.cl|Luis]] 2010/01/13 21:27//

I have found two things which didn't work for me and I suggest to fix this in the plugin as well.

**1) In //admin.php// function //handle()//:**

Original line:
<code php>
$this->mediafiles = $this->glob_recursive($conf['mediadir'] . '/*.*');
</code>
Corrected line:
<code php>
$this->mediafiles = $this->glob_recursive($conf['mediadir'] . '/*');
</code>
Without this modification no media files and directories are found at my site.

**2) In //admin.php// function //handle()//:**

Add this code directly after the "//foreach// ..." loop statement:
<code php>
if (is_dir($mediafile)) {
    unset($this->mediafiles[$idx]);
    continue;
}
</code>
Without this statement directories will be shown as downloadable files on the download statistic page. This doesn't make sense.


**3) In //action.php// function //_showcount()//:**

After the line
<code php>
$fn = substr($href, strpos($href, '/_media/')+strlen('/_media/')-1);
</code>
add the line
<code php>
$fn = str_replace(':', '/', $fn);
</code>
After rewriting the URL when using the mod_rewrite feature in .htaccess the colon needs to be replaced by a slash too - like in the other cases.

>Constants in objects start working with PHP 5.
>One way is to update (that's the better way to go. php4 is out of support), the other is to go to line 16/17 in admin.php and action.php, delete them and put this above the class definition:

><code php>
define('dlcount_DATADIR','_media');   // below $conf['metadir'], no trailing slash
define('dlcount_SUFFIX','.meta');
</code>

>Then go throu the code and replace every self::DATADIR and self::SUFFIX with dlcount_DATADIR and dlcount_SUFFIX

Should be fixed now. ---//mARKUS//

  function all_files($dir)
  {
    $files = Array();
    $file_tmp= glob($dir.'*',GLOB_MARK | GLOB_NOSORT);
    foreach($file_tmp as $item){
        if(substr($item,-1)!=DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR)
            $files[] = $item;
        else
            $files = array_merge($files,all_files($item));
    }
    return $files;
  }

I changed ''glob_recursive()'' a bit ... please try the latest version. ---//mARKUS//

It not produce errors now, but not working well. :( It's looks like no media files are on my server. I switch back to my previous modified routine and all is fine. ---//Geby//
