404 when opening file included in article

[comfix]

Just installed the download plugin and seems not to be working.
I add the code in a K2 article which appears fine, but when clicking on the download button, I get a 404.

These errors:

Hi, can I see the site where this occurs? Disable displaying of development warnings (warnings for developers) in your Joomla! configuration, such warnings should not have any influence on running the code

https://www.phoca.cz/documents/50-phoca ... tic-method

Do you still get the same problems when you disable development warnings?

404 in fact does not have any dependency to the warnings as if there is a php fatal error, script is broken with error 500. 404 means that the article was not found.

These are now disabled, I've created a new file and still same error:
404 - View is niet gevonden [name, type, prefix]: article, html, phocadownloadView

Code which I add to K2 article:

Code: Select all

{phocadownload view=file|id=4}

I have also SecurityCheck Pro running, maybe this blocks it?

Hi,
did you create a menu link to Phoca Download Component (List of categories)?
See this article. It discribed the problem for Phoca Gallery & Phoca Gallery Plugin but for Phoca Download & Phoca Download Plugin it's the same: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/16-jooml ... -in-joomla

So if you are using module or plugin which works together with component (e.g. modules and plugins for Phoca Download, Phoca Gallery, etc.) then you need to create menu link to component, so module or plugin can find Itemid of the component menu link and can create the link to component correctly.

Kind regards,
Benno

So I've created a new menu with the link to the file and now the module seems to work fine and the download is found. Thanks! :)

You're welcome!

Kind regards,
