Beta Releases / Re: v16.0 Beta
« Last post by Pawel on Today at 11:43:15 »
@Mathias (Author)

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

1. File -> CustomKeymappings.xml
<keymap>
  <map extid="" ctrl="0" udc="29e331d5dbe5444eabcdcb37ba409a6b" key="F1" keymod=""/>
  <map extid="" ctrl="0" udc="985cf4f5c21d4014ac0382da45e3e3a0" key="F10" keymod="CA"/>
  <map extid="" ctrl="0" udc="a568468079cb4dc5b5123487d908e891" key="F3" keymod=""/>
  <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 + '"' + $arr" not found
2026-07-02 11:38:02.277 Script engine error => Failed to process token - "$text"
2026-07-02 11:38:02.277 Script engine error - Line : 8, Error : -1 => Code : "$text = $text + '"' + $arr[$i] + '"'"
2026-07-02 11:38:02.277 Script engine error - Line : 8, Error : -1 => Code : "$text = $text + '"' + $arr[$i] + '"'"
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 + '"' + $arr" not found
2026-07-02 11:39:30.273 Script engine error => Failed to process token - "$text"
2026-07-02 11:39:30.273 Script engine error - Line : 8, Error : -1 => Code : "$text = $text + '"' + $arr[$i] + '"'"
2026-07-02 11:39:30.273 Script engine error - Line : 8, Error : -1 => Code : "$text = $text + '"' + $arr[$i] + '"'"
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 Today at 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.

Beta Releases / Re: Create new Folder (F7) does nothing after updating to beta
« Last post by Mathias (Author) on Today at 06:48:21 »

Only the button on the button panel FAILS.  The F7 key, the Create Folder icon on the toolbar, and "Menu > Tools Create Folder" work successfully. I am on beta 16.0 build 3181 64-bit Windows desktop edition.

While we are on this topic...
Is it possible to customize the create folder icon on the button panel to create a new folder using this format: YYYY-MM-DD HH-MM-SS. I want to combine the [d] and [t] variables in one step. Can this be done? The parameters I am using only create the date. I want to combine multiple variables, ie: date and time together.

Ahhhh So then it is the Custom command MC.Explorer.Makedir script command that fails. since the button connects to that. That narrow it down.

IN the button panel you can assign custom command (like MC.Explorer.Makedir and you customize them.) For make this you now have support for creating folder using template...  click the
  • button next to input field in dialog and you see tags you can add.. then copy paste this template to the custom command for the MakeDir and use it there.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Request - upgrade Simple Machines Forum software to newest version 2.1.7
« Last post by Anti-Bacterial on Today at 01:01:11 »

Multicommander support forum uses old version SMF 2.0.19 and there are bugs in the editor. The latest release of Simple Machines Forum 2.1.7


I would like to suggest updating to the latest SMF version because as I have mentioned before, there are display issues when using the WYSIWYG HTML editor. You commented on this yourself last month in this thread: https://forum.multicommander.com/forum/index.php/topic,5189.0.html


Specifically, when I compose a post and create numbered lists or bulleted lists, the font is changed to a tiny size which is unreadable. I thought it was my browser at first, but this seems to be a known SMF bug. Upgrading to SMF 2.1.7 should fix this bug, and offer other improvements, described here:
https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=593921.0


Here are backup and upgrade instructions from the online manual:
https://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Upgrading


There are also more themes available which look prettier. It's free so there is no cost.
Thank you for all that you do. MC is the best!

I am using MC in the Beta version, and since a few updates, "Makedir(F7)" in the Button Panel no longer works. It is simply dead. No response at all. I find this very unfortunate. Perhaps a fix?
Is it only the button on the button panel. ?  Do the Actual F7 key works ? The Create Folder icon on the toolbar ?  Menu > Tools Create Folder ?

Do all places not work. or only some ?

STEP #10:
Press F7 to create a new folder on my local C: drive under my DOWNLOADS folder.  Nothing happens. No prompt. No dialog pops up. Nothing.


In the stable release, you can press F7 (MakeDir) get this dialog (see attachment).  For example, after I press F7 then I can type in ZZZ and click OK and a new folder called ZZZ is created.  In the beta, I am not prompted for anything. I did a clean install, too. How/where do I access the log?


Not sure what you're talking about dots. Sometimes after I preview/post here, the forum editor scrambles the content. I had to edit and remove the formatting then reapply the numbered list format.

Have you tried without restoring backup ?  maybe there are some configuration conflict, Just Download portable version and start it and without customizing anything.. does that work ?

Nope, can confirm F7 to Create Folder works perfectly for me —tested in Build 3176 Portable Edition (Win 10 Enterprise.)
Nice work on the Icon Override issue, Mathias, also works as expected ! 8)
Under Configuration > Keyboard Customization > Select "Explorer Panel", you should see the entry "Create Folder" and assigned to "F7" hotkey.
