Hi i'm adding a new js file to the scripts folder but it is not being added to the manifest. How can i recompile the js files so that my new files will be added to the manifest and be detected by the easydiscuss component?
perhaps my easydiscuss version is outdated or you are mistaking easydiscuss with easysocial because easysocial has the folder structure that you are referring to above.

Actually that is correct path as my colleague mentioned at above, may i know what is your current Easydiscuss version? is it using Easydiscuss 3.x?

If yes, can you try open this file JoomlaFolder\media\foundry\3.1\libraries\closure.php


    const URL = 'http://deployer.stackideas.com:1280';



//replace with



    const URL = 'http://oauth.stackideas.com/compiler';


Then run this following compile url -> http://site.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&compile=1

if the issue still persists, can you provide us with your Joomla backend and FTP access so we can better have a check?

And guide us which is your custom script file you put at?

Try run this URL on your backend : http://replaceYourSiteDomain.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&compile=1&minify=1

hi i ran the url you suggested and it didn't do anything much, my old minified files are still there, and they do not contain any of the new code i added to the various js files found in /media/com_easydiscuss/scripts.
(The old minified js file is still being served!) and there also is nothing newer to serve.
any other suggestions perhaps...?

Which folder did you add the js to? You should place it in /media/com_easydiscuss/scripts/site/src/ if you want to add this script to the front end, and /media/com_easydiscuss/scripts/admin/src if you want to add this script to the back end.

Also, take note that:

http://site.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&compile=1 (This compiles the back end)

http://site.com/index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&compile=1 (This compiles the front end)

The reason that we have 2 different script files is because we don't want to add the extra payload of the back end scripts into the front end.

I also ran the compile URL on the front end and I got "Error: 0 No HTTP response from server"

Hi it worked, I received this response:

array(4) { ["static"]=> string(100) "/home/digitalfrontiers/public_html/stageit/media/com_easydiscuss/scripts/easydiscuss-3.2.9744.static" ["optimized"]=> string(103) "/home/digitalfrontiers/public_html/stageit/media/com_easydiscuss/scripts/easydiscuss-3.2.9744.optimized" ["resources"]=> string(91) "/home/digitalfrontiers/public_html/stageit/media/com_easydiscuss/resources/default-3.2.9744" ["minify"]=> bool(true) }

My current easydiscuss version is 3.2.9744. Thanks for the help, cheers!
