Flashgames module and Xoops 2.0.13.1 problem

When I installed flashgames Version 0.9 RC1 in XOOPS 2.0.10 RC2 and it worked perfectly.

However, when I installed in XOOPS 2.0.13.1 I cannot create any CATEGORY nor cannot configure or change preference. Since I cannot create categories hence I cannot submit any games as well.

Is there any changes in version 2.0.13.1 which doesn't allow flashgames Version 0.9 RC1 not to work properly?

Please help. Thank you in advance!

[Note: I gave the same comment in flashgames release news which is really old, I'm afraid that it is not the right place to seek for help. Therefore, I'm posting here again for help].

What could be the reason? Since XOOPS 2.0.10 RC2 is hosted with another host I'm wondering if the problem has to do with the host of XOOPS 2.0.13.1

Please help me.

Thank you in advance!

I got it to work in 2.0.13.1 sort of....

try uninstalling it and re-uploading and installing it.

Could have been an ftp geek or something....

Thanks adrock, let me try uploading it through ftp. I did it through Cpanel and it didn't work...

Besides, I found one more folder which needs to be chmod to 777..

--------------------------------

Den Ordner "Flashgames" in das Modules Verzeichnis kopieren und über das Admin Menü installieren
Die Ordner /games und /cache benötigenb Schreibrechte (chmod 777)


/cache folder... I couldn't find English version of installation...

1st Edit : I chmod /cache and /games folder to 777 but still I cannot the problem remains the same. I wonder if it has to do with my hosting...

This XOOPS 2.0.13.1 isn't a fresh installation, it was upgraded from 2.0.10 RC 2.

I have modules like XOOPS Protector, shoutbox, news 1.4, Guestbook, xcGallery, polls and newBB2... should I try uninstalling XOOPS protector or not?

well...mine let me create a category...but none of the blocks that came with it worked....also the only way to upload a game was through the front page of the module, it did not recognize the games if you added them via ftp

If I remember, the only thing that really worked in the admin section was creating a category....nothing else really worked.

xcGallery 'may' be causing some problems....look and see if xcGallery and myAlbum can be run at the same time (somewhere in the forums), because the flashgames module is a hack of the myalbum module that allows flash embeding in the page, and has removed all of the picture functionality from view...but not from the database....
(iiick!)

Hey! There's an idea! adding flash inclusion to the XOOPS core so that it will automatically display the flash items, like it currently does with images....then we could make a game forum or something and do it that way!

Yes, it worked like a champ in XOOPS 2.0.10RC2 but not in XOOPS 2.0.13.1.

I wish I can atleast create category. I don't mind uploading it from module page. Because in admin the upload url isn't correct which I found while playing with flashfames in 2.0.10RC2...

Yes, for this may be I need to look the forum more. But xcGal and flashgames are working well together in 2.0.10RC2!!

I couldn't ask this much to the core developers. Whatever we get I'm thankful...

Thanks a lot for taking time to respond.
