Hey Guys, i've been reading through the forums and threads for more or less an hour now - but i couldn't find a step-by-step installation instruction for this very useful addon.

The ZIP File for download only includes a subfolder "armorysync" with some files but i have no idea how to include that in the existing roster installation. do i need to replace the index.php with the one from the archive? what else to do?

Would be great if someone can give me a short 1. 2. 3. description of the steps necessary.

THANKS

Another question is, do i need to start the armory synchronisation or is it done once a day automatically?

Hiya,

Put the ArmorySync in the addons directory that's under your wowroster installation (you'll see stuff like the siggen directory there as well)

Next time you go into wowroster, you'll see an 'ArmorySynch' button in the menu. Click on that, supply your roster password and it'll start synching.

In the ArmorySynch dir will be a file config.php, edit that to set which armory to use, EU or US.

Hmmm.

So I've installed the addon in the proper directory. Changed the config.php file to US and told it I'm using the DF version of roster. Still it doesn't work. I get parsing errors like

Code: Select all

Are you using the 2.0 beta? The current version of armory sync is for 2.0.

I'm using "armorysynch_fixes_253_4.zip"

Anyone with any idea hy the armorsynch button wouldn't show up? I appear to have R2 up and running and copied the Synch files to the addon dir but the but to initiate synching button doesn't show up.

Getting late and could be missing something obvious, but any help would be appreciated.

dumb question Matt, but did you go to addon config in the main config panel and install it?

If so then I have no idea what happened.

Yeah it doesn't show up there either.

Everything else is working fine once I updated to the latest beta. Very odd.

Any ideas on manually forcing an install?

The version of armorysynch we have doesn't have an install.def.php file in it so it's not getting picked up. Do we have a bad download or something?

which one did you download? This one's the one and only. I double checked that the archive you can download is the one i uploaded and there is an install.def.php
