[Pro] action: AddSelector.act3

When downloading the action “AddSelector.act3” I’m not really sure how to implement AddSelector.act3 into FRW.

Any advice please!

First, you’ll probably need to change the filename extension to .fwaction. Once you do that, double-clicking the action file will install it in Freeway. To use it, click on an object on the page and use Item / Actions to select and apply the Action. The interface will appear in the Actions palette whenever that element is selected.

I’m trying to install the ScriptyAccordian action…
http://scripty.walterdavisstudio.com/accordion/

I followed instructions to Save the file ‘Accordian.freeway’ but it remained grey (unselectable).
So I trued changing the extension to accordian.fwaction
I can now select it and it also has the correct cog wheel icon.
However when selecting Edit > Actions… > Install actions, I get the message that the item is not correctly terminated.

Can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong?
Thanks,
Adrian

The ScriptyAccordion Action is an Action Bundle, delivered as
a .fwactionb file. There are numerous files inside it, in a specific
file structure, and they should just work with any version of Freeway
greater than 4.

First, locate the broken version you have currently installed in
Freeway. Look in /Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/
Freeway 5/Actions/General using the Finder. Locate the
ScriptyAccordion file and delete it.

Next, download ScriptyAccordion again, and un-zip it, and then drag
the fwactionb file/folder over the top of the Freeway icon in the Dock
while Freeway is running. It should prompt you that you are about to
install an Action.

Download the action from here ScriptyAccordion - ActionsForge

You will then get the correct action ‘ScriptyAccordion.fwactionb’

Doubleclick in Finder to install

I have spent SOOOO much time over the last week trying to get this to function. I need help. Can someone PLEASE check out my contact page ( http://habmarketing.com/fmp/hab-contactnewform.html ) and let me know if they’ve got any ideas. I can also give anyone the FW code behind it.

I don’t care about this specific GUI, just something to protect the form from spamming. This can’t be as difficult as it’s made out to be.

Bart this should really be in its own thread to get a proper response.

If you start a new thread and outline for us exactly what problems you are having and how you put this together then we can have a proper look.

But that contact page is scary enough without the mega-captcha you are using on it.

I thought my Subject would have created a new thread, or do I have to do that on the website?

What’s scary about the contact page? :-))

The subject is not the key that’s used to “thread” the messages, not
here or in any standard e-mail application either. Each e-mail message
that is a reply to another message contains a header called In Reply
To, which has a value that is the message ID of the message you’re
replying to. This message ID is a salad of letters and numerals and is
hopefully globally unique.

Your mail application looks for this header and uses it to sort the
messages into threads (if you’ve enabled that feature). The Web forum
uses this header to find the parent thread and add your message to it.
We used the subject line as the thread key for about 5 minutes, and
discovered it was a shockingly bad experience for all concerned.

To start a new thread from Mail, simply address a new blank message to
the list address: freewaytalk(at)freewaytalk.net and give it a subject
and body.

To start a new thread from the Web interface, click on the list name
in the left-hand nav, scroll to the bottom of the page, and (if you’re
logged in) you’ll see the ‘Start a new thread’ form.

Hi Walter,
Would it be worth bouncing the message back to the user if the subject
didn’t match the others in the thread? Is changing the subject in a
thread a useful feature that I’m failing to make the most of? :slight_smile:
Thanks,
Tim.

It might, but there’s no guarantee that a reply from mail would have
the same subject line as the message it is in reply to. Some e-mail
clients use “smart” reply subject shaping, so you don’t end up with
‘Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Some original subject’. Others do not, and so the
subject would change each time.

If I tried using a regular expression to see if “this subject line
contains the original subject line” as a form of substring matching,
then there’s a lot of other edge cases that open up – caused by a
well-intended fix to the original problem.

On the Web, I’ve kept the problem from being a problem through
interface design. There is no Subject field in the ‘Reply to this
thread’ form, and the mail message that is sent by that form to the
list uses the subject from the original parent message, with Re:
prepended to it as its subject.
