[Softpedia.com Template (Test)]

Hi Francisco,

 

I recognized something strange: some downloads are extended with the words "Free Trial", although I can't see this anywhere on the Info-/Download-page (and I really don't like it)!

 

You can test this with http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/DAEMON-Tools-Download-5319.html.

 

Is there any way to stop this behaviour?

 

Best regards and thanks for your precious work

P.S. There seems to be another problem that I can't figure out with DriveImage XML: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/Hard-Disk-Utils/DriveImage-XML.shtml

???

 

So SP refers to SF, right? Could you please tell me what exactly I have to do when using your script? Do I have to leave any fields blank? Or do I have to modify anything in the XML-file?

 

Sorry for bothering you that often.

Thanks, I corrected it and now I can import the template - but I've still got another problem

 

I tried to download Audacity from SP and inserted all desired information in the pop-ups - this is the resulting XML:

The download doesn't work, maybe you can tell me why?

Hi,

 

I get this error when I try to import your template:

 

 

It seems that Ketarin (I use the latest version 1.0.6.272) has a problem with the character "\" in this line: <ExecuteCommand \>

 

Do you have an idea what I did wrong?

 

Best regards

[[REQUEST] How to build a template for CHIP.DE?]

Thank you very much for your try-outs...that's really some bad news

 

The thing is that I really like to have a download-archive like Softpedia.com, which provides mostly german applications. I'm not download from CHIP.DE very frequently, I prefer direct-downloads from the manufacturers - but I though it could be a good idea to start with an "All-In"-platform.

 

Does anyone here know an equivalent to Softpedia.com im German?

 

Best regards and thanks again for your precious help

Thanks again - you were faster than me editing my posting. Maybe you can read this:

 

Edit: the template doesn't work When I open the "Variables"-window it seems that there is a problem with the download-URL.

BTW, this is the error-message I get from Ketarin: Invalid URI: the URI-string is too long. ??? And after this sentence there the source-code of the whole CHIP.DE-page...

 

I never dealed with Expresso before - seems like a hard piece of work. Do you've got any tips where to start?

[[REQUEST] How to build a template for CHIP.DE?]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!! This is really awesome Thanks a lot for your lightning-fast reply.

 

Is there a chance to modify your template to work with placeholders and various URLs (with the pop-ups) like you used in your latest Softpedia.com-template?

 

I really appreciate your good work and your precious help

[[REQUEST] How to build a template for CHIP.DE?]

Hi guys,

 

I wondered if it's possible to write a template for the in Germany well-known download-site CHIP.DE?

There are surely some great templates for MG or SP, but I can't download german versions there

 

This is an example-link to download the latest Glary Utilites 2.13: http://www.chip.de/downloads/Glary-Utilities_32044559.html

 

Maybe someone can help me with this? For example I really don't know how to use "regex" etc.

 

Best regards and thanks in advance for your help
