Strange. Can you make sure you are using latest version? You could find that in the top of the index.php file ... I checked the code quickly, and can't immediately see why this would happen, although I could have overlooked something.

thanks Karl , just looked at my index.php and it seams that the update is applied

Karl

Just an update to this topic while I am diagnosing it.

There seems to be a problem with Javascript location.reload(true) which in some cases loads a cached version of the document, which explains why you would see wrong version number in the response. I'm not quite sure what circumstances causes this, but it's actually quite difficult to bypass. See this post:
stackoverflow.com/questions/2099201/javascript-hard-refresh-of-current-page

I have now added the following, hoping it will force browser to reload non-cached version of the document:

location.href = location.href.split('#')[0] + (location.href.indexOf('?') > 0 ? '&' : '?') + 'version=' + new_version;

@Dans34 If you read this, please let me know next time you update if it works! 🙏

Karl

This should be resolved in latest release Files Gallery 0.8.0. The page should now reload without using cache after updating.

Hi,

augras i updated to the last 0.8.2 and got the message at the and «Successfully updated to Files app 0.7.0».

It think it's not working yet because the updater you used was technically still using the 0.7.0 version, and therefore did not enforce a refresh without cache. I think it should work next time you update.

augras

I will test with the 0.8.3 update but it is not detected.

Karl

augras I will test with the 0.8.3 update but it is not detected.

It might take a couple of hours before the "bell" appears, because Files Gallery checks latest version vs NPM repository, and this file does cache and might take a few hours before it gets updated.
https://data.jsdelivr.com/v1/package/npm/files.photo.gallery

From here, it already shows "latest": "0.8.3", but it might take a few hours after each release.

You can always update manually of course simply be replacing index.php.

augras

Ok, i wait the bell to test if the update message is the good one.

augras

The bell is always display but no notification for an update.
I cleaned the cache, but nothing.

Karl

augras The bell is always display but no notification for an update.

What do you mean, the bell is the notification for an update.

Please send me a link so I can check, else I don't know what's going on ...

augras

Karl What do you mean

to update from 0.7.0 to 0.8.2 the bell was displayed and there was the number 1 in it : today the bell is displayed but no notification, no number in it, and the automatic update is not possible.

This is another bug from me 🤨 There is actually a dropdown menu available for the updater, but it became hidden after I added an auto-positioning fix for all dropdown menu's. In browser developer tools, if you assign display: block for the dropdown-menu element, you will see that the dropdown appears with latest info, and allows you to update automatically.

I will have a new release available later today or tomorrow. For your current version, you will need to update manually.

Karl

Ok, so this has now been fixed in update 0.8.4.
https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/files.photo.gallery@0.8.4/index.php

It won't work in your current version 0.8.3, so you will need to update manually.

augras

In _files/css/custom.css i added
.dropdown-menu { display : block; }
and the menu was displayed.
I made the update automatic but at the end the message is still with the old version number and not 0.8.4

You will need to refresh the page manually, and I may need to assign text "Please refresh browser". The problem is that the Javascript-triggered refresh serves a cached version of the HTML document, and I can't do much about that. The issue is covered in the below topic on Stackoverflow:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2099201/javascript-hard-refresh-of-current-page

I will do some more tests in next release.

Ok, thanks.
