Joomla! 4.x Coding • Re: I can't get the <update> mechanism to work.

According to the docs here:
https://docs.joomla.org/J3.x:Creating_a ... ic_Module can be a translatable string and even pulled from the language.ini file

Then, according to the docs here:
https://docs.joomla.org/Special:MyLangu ... fest_files should be the component name but further down it uses plain english.

Then, according to the docs you posted earlier and found here:
https://jdocmanual.org/jdocmanual?artic ... fest-filesIs plain english "Hello World Package"

I did change the updates->update->name to match the module manifest. Still no joy.

Also, according to the docs you posted earlier and found here (deploying an update server):
https://jdocmanual.org/jdocmanual?manua ... server.mdIt says in the update.xml that is required but it doesn't say it has to match anything

Further down, under there's this line:
"For example, the following matches versions 4.0.0 and 4.0.1." but there is no "following" example.

A little further down from there under the NOTE, there's this line "If you want to include version 3.10 you can use an | like this: . If you want to show the updates for all 3.8.x versions and all 3.10.x versions you can use" but there is no example of what to use for either "| like this:" or "versions you can use"

In running the custom logging and using the updater tag, I don't see that my update server is getting hit. That looks like it stopped and I've no idea why but if I check the mysql tables it shows the "last checked" timestamp to be set to the same value as all the others.

So, I've run through both sets of docs, mucked around with as much as I can muck around with and I've gotten nowhere.

I'm open to any other suggestions.
