heyyy nowww..... i know my subscription is expired but im imposing a "pre purchase question"
Id like to buy a subscription short of the next level Joomla coming out but i need to know that MC is going to be able to work for my in my environment.

So. Any info?

Hello!

I'm not sure if HTTPS could cause an issue,
If you go to Music Collection configuration, do you have the "Use CURL for Discogs requests (BETA)" enabled?

Originally it wast not selected.
I activated it and tried again. Same result.
Once i click"search on Discogs" nothing happens.

Im pretty sute im using the correct info from Discogs API
I need the OAuth token = This would be the Shown at the bottom of this page https://www.discogs.com/settings/developers (For me when i am logged in and have APIs created)
and
OAuth access token secret = This would be the "Consumer Secret" at Discogs

Am i correct?


I did however have something entered in the HOMEPAGE and CALLBACK urls locations of Discogs. I see those are optional so i removed that information as well

No idea huh? Again the only thing that has changed is that the site went to HTTPS and i havent seen other that Joomlathat.com using an HTTPS with this so far.

Its possible there was an update to a particular file which i missed.

I think i found the issue. Seems possibly to be the PHP version i am using (Currently 7.3)
I can bump down to 7.2 but i think the problem will be eliminated if i go as far down as 7.0

The reason i say this is because:
Example:
1) i upload 7 different songs by 7 different artists but all into the SAME album folder (songs/The-Mutual)
2) in Admin i go to Components > Music Collection > Albums
3) Click "SCAN FOLDER"
4) Under FOLDERS FOUND click "The-Mutual"
5) On the right side click "Process all these files using their ID3 Tages creating new albums and artists if necessary"

The next screen shows me "operator not supported for strings"

If i go back to the Music Collection Albums page in the admin area, there are only 4 artists + 4 songs added. The rest are missing.

This error "operator not supported for strings" seems to be an issue connecting with PHP 7.1+
According to Joomla. This error occurs when a Plugin or Module is out of date for the PHP Version

i wonder if its possible the DISCOGS button isnt working because the website is managed by a CDN

I have found the issue.
Its all because of PHP7

See here the latest error showing up on the PUBLIC side of the site:

Deprecated: Methods with the same name as their class will not be constructors in a future version of PHP; plgMuscolJomsocial has a deprecated constructor in /homepages/38/d692002752/xxxx/xxxx.com/plugins/muscol/jomsocial/jomsocial.php on line 25

This error is causing two issues.

A) Any module showing SONGS will not show up.
B) The FACEBOOK COMMENTS plugin will work but still kicks out this error
C) The plugin that sends a FEED UPDATE to JomSocial, will work but again it will kick out an error on the PUBLIC side of the site.

I imagine with these errors happening, its the same reason why my DISCOGS button doenst work either

so no response then?

thx

Just red this one...
But I can say MC does work fine with php7 and discogs search..
At least my site works just checked it
