Beta Releases / Re: Create new Folder (F7) does nothing after updating to beta
« Last post by Anti-Bacterial on July 03, 2026, 20:30:40 »Thank you very much! Placing "double quotes" around the command worked perfectly. Here is the button editor command I use to create a custom folder name using format YYYY-MM-DD HH-MM-SS
MC.Explorer.Makedir FOLDERNAME=":[d] [t]"
I copied the template format into the command and surrounded it with double quotes. Pics attached for others reading how to accomplish this.

Beta Releases / Re: Create new Folder (F7) does nothing after updating to beta
« Last post by Mathias (Author) on July 03, 2026, 08:11:00 »Thank you. I am using this command in the button editor to make the directory folder and it works.
MC.Explorer.Makedir FOLDERNAME=:[d][t]
But now I want a space in between the [d] and [t]. I tried this:
MC.Explorer.Makedir FOLDERNAME=:[d] [t]
MC cannot interpret this space and truncates the [t] if there is a space in between them. It only creates the YYY-MM-DD as the folder name. Is there a way to create a folder with a space in between YYYY-MM-DD and HH-MM-SS ?
Just inserting a space in it would not work.. each paramter to custom commands is separated by space.. just like the command line.
Have you tried putting a " around them the path ? FOLDERNAME="name with spaces" ? Or that does not work ?

For sure, the problem is in Script Language.
Would be great if you find why current script fails...
I confirm. Your workaround works fine!

Look like the script fails. looks like it something changed how array indexing are handled..
as a workaround this works
Code: [Select]
@var $name = $arr[$i];
if($i == 0)
{
$text = $text + '"' + $name + '"';
}
else
{
$text = $text + " " + '"' + $name + '"';
}
Moving access of array item to own temp variable

I would like to report that MC 16 beta breaks custom scripts/commands.
Configuration:
\UFM\MC\Config\CustomConfigPaths.xml
<CustomConfigPaths>
<ConfigFileRedirect>
<ConfigFile File="UserMenu.xml" Redirected="..\UFM\1045\UserMenu.xml" />
<ConfigFile File="QuickLaunch.xml" Redirected="..\UFM\1045\QuickLaunch.xml" />
<ConfigFile File="QuickLaunch2.xml" Redirected="..\UFM\1045\QuickLaunch2.xml" />

</ConfigFileRedirect>
<AdditionalScriptFolders>
<ScriptFolder Name="UFM" Path="..\UFM\1045\Scripts" Recursive="1" />
</AdditionalScriptFolders>
</CustomConfigPaths>
1. File -> CustomKeymappings.xml

<map extid="" ctrl="0" udc="a568468079cb4dc5b5123487d908e892" key="F4" keymod=""/>
</keymap>
F10, F3, F4 shortcuts NOT working anymore!
Example F3 Action:
Log says:
2026-07-02 11:38:02.277 Script engine info => Variable "$i" created
2026-07-02 11:38:02.277 Script engine error => Variable "$text + '"' + $arr" not found

2026-07-02 11:38:02.277 Script engine error - Line : 8, Error : -1 => Code : "$text = $text + '"' + $arr[$i] + '"'"
2. Redirected xml files works fine (UserMenu.xml, QuickLaunch.xml, QuickLaunch2.xml) - but if you click on custom button that is connected with custom script (..\UFM\1045\Scripts) - script is not working, probably not called... so nothing happens.
Example button test (selecting few files on the list and pressing button that should call my app with parameters (those selected files).
Here is my multiscript:
@var $text = "";
@var $arr = GetSelectedPaths();
@var $cnt = arrayCount($arr)
for($i = 0; $i < $cnt; $i++)
{
if($i == 0)
{
$text = $text + '"' + $arr[$i] + '"';
}
else
{
$text = $text + " " + '"' + $arr[$i] + '"';
}
}
MC.Run CMD="${mcinstallpath}\..\AppManager.exe" STARTIN="${mcinstallpath}\..\" ARG="/OPEN {$text}"
Here is MC log:
2026-07-02 11:39:30.273 Script engine info => Variable "$i" created
2026-07-02 11:39:30.273 Script engine error => Variable "$text + '"' + $arr" not found

2026-07-02 11:39:30.273 Script engine error - Line : 8, Error : -1 => Code : "$text = $text + '"' + $arr[$i] + '"'"
This is MAJOR issues. Please take a look at this. Everything was working in current MC 15.8
You can test it with latest UFM (https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/apwhkbpcdnr4aayrkq5bp/UFM_15.5.exe?rlkey=mfpor3adcqqglc28zaqlucjox&dl=1)

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: Request - upgrade Simple Machines Forum software to newest version 2.1.7
« Last post by Mathias (Author) on July 02, 2026, 08:08:45 »Oh yes.., I been wanting to upgrade for a while.
But the problem is that there are some plugin/module used that blocks auto upgrades so I have to do a reinstall and reconfiguration of everything and migrate everything, .. and that is a very big job that takes at least the whole day at least. its really messy. But I probably will have to do it soon.. or I just reinstall and clear everything out... Problem is that I want to move entire forum to a docker instance.. But Im not sure it is supported.
