Subfolder path not working with multiple plugins on same article

[ttiemann]

NOTE: I posted this question on your website within comment section as I couldn’t gain access to this forum.

There may be a bug when you add more than one Easy Folder Listing Pro plugins {} to the same page.

If I use folder parameter by itself within one article it works fine. It even works with multiple ones having different main folders.

However when you link to a subfolder and have multiple plugins {} on an article the subfolder displays default images folder and all contents.

For example folder=’images’ and folder1=’images/banners’ in the same article will display the very same content. The 2nd item (folder1) will not just display files within banner folder.

However if you display folder=’images’ and folder1=’layouts’ (Main Folders) the content is different for each plugin display.

@ttiemann. Thanks for posting. I am a bit confused. I use multiple instances in a page all the time and they work as expected. Have a look at my demo page.

There is no such parameter as “folder1”. If you want to do multiple instances you can do something like:

{easyfolderlistingpro folder=&#039;images/someplace&#039;}<br /> <br /> {easyfolderlistingpro folder=&#039;a_folder/a_subfolder&#039;}<br /> <br /> {easyfolderlistingpro folder=&#039;images/another_subfolder&#039;}

1 2 3 4 5

{easyfolderlistingpro folder=&#039;images/someplace&#039;}<br /> <br /> {easyfolderlistingpro folder=&#039;a_folder/a_subfolder&#039;}<br /> <br /> {easyfolderlistingpro folder=&#039;images/another_subfolder&#039;}

Oh, please let me know what version of Easy Folder Listing Pro you are using. If it is the latest version (v2.7), please re-download it and re-install it.

I’m using 2.7 version for Joomla 3 – My understanding of your documentation suggest

To have multiple uploaders on the same page, just add each instance according to the following format:

{easyfolderlistingpro parameter1=’value1’|parameter2=’value2’|…|parameterN=’valueN’}

So I just need to add an “a_” in front of the folder/subfolder to make this work? Is it correct to also say if I want 3 on a page I would use “b_”? Or am I missing your point entirely?

I will re-download the latest version and reinstall?

Thank you for the insight. I’m not sure what I was thinking : )

Basically just use the same syntax {easyfolderlistingpro folder=''} but with different paths.

After re-downloading and re-installing this now works

{easyfolderlistingpro method=&#039;list&#039; | folder=&#039;images&#039; | level=&#039;2&#039; | subfolders=&#039;Yes&#039; | preview=&#039;none&#039; | linktofiles=&#039;0&#039; | time=&#039;0&#039; | date=&#039;0&#039; | size=&#039;0&#039;}<br /> <br /> {easyfolderlistingpro method=&#039;list&#039; | folder=&#039;images/banners&#039; | level=&#039;2&#039; | subfolders=&#039;Yes&#039; | preview=&#039;none&#039; | linktofiles=&#039;0&#039; | time=&#039;0&#039; | date=&#039;0&#039; | size=&#039;0&#039;}

1 2 3

{easyfolderlistingpro method=&#039;list&#039; | folder=&#039;images&#039; | level=&#039;2&#039; | subfolders=&#039;Yes&#039; |  preview=&#039;none&#039; | linktofiles=&#039;0&#039; | time=&#039;0&#039; | date=&#039;0&#039; | size=&#039;0&#039;}<br /> <br /> {easyfolderlistingpro method=&#039;list&#039; | folder=&#039;images/banners&#039; | level=&#039;2&#039; | subfolders=&#039;Yes&#039; |  preview=&#039;none&#039; | linktofiles=&#039;0&#039; | time=&#039;0&#039; | date=&#039;0&#039; | size=&#039;0&#039;}

@ttiemann. Ok. I am glad you figured it out. Maybe I can make the documentation a bit clearer. Please post your suggestions so that I can make it clearer for everyone.

The only thing I would say is to always use 1 for Yes and 0 for No. So, don’t put subfolders=’Yes’, put subfolders=’1′. Hope this helps.
