Module page

Post by Turbo_boy »

Hello there,

I was looking in the module page and wanted to click on a module and it redirected to another
page of the modules, but nothing was there.

I thought it was something with my browser so I tryed it on IE7 but even there nothing was showed.

Example page:

The modules section is still being worked on, the only thing you can do is download modules.

And even that is down now, as browsing the modules page shows:

This due to moving hosts?

That is related to the hosts moving (and another move possibly soon), I hadn't restored that yet. I'll restore the DB link here in a few moments.

It is back online. You just need to click on the icon not the name to save the file.

Regarding the download link for modules, the header:
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="<modulename>"
SHould really be:
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="<modulename>.tar"
Reason I ask is that the lack of file extension has from my experiance caused confusion, and as a result complaints of compilation errors because the users assumed it was a .c file not .tar

This problem occours with both IE7, FireFox and wget

The lack of a readme is from the module coders side not Unreal. It would be nice if module coders were required to have a readme/license to get their module on the site though.
