General Discussion

A special build of OpenOffice, called OpenOffice4kids, is now available. It's a simplified version of OpenOffice, with more accessible icons, etc., designed to help kids getting involved in OpenOffice.

I downloaded the app, and installed it into a folder with my other portable apps. The OO4Kids folder contains a single executable, from which the components are opened.

I have been using portableapps installer to create installers for various programs. All it does is create the app info and copies that and the exe to the flashdrive. I have installed numerous programs which require extra dll's to run. I hav copied them into the folder manually and it works then. I want to know if their is a way to add the extra files to the installer so that I do not have to continually manually copy the extra files into the portable app folder

Well we were supposed to have beta 6 in July and the final of 2 by the end of July.

Its now nearly September and we haven't had any.

Any progress on any of these or is it a dead duck.

Does anyone have an idea on when their database will be up and running again so I can actually download and try out some awesome themes, or say, better learn to build my own?

I'm also curious about the R34 menu mod.

Why are the app updates piling up again?
Is there a reason John is holding back the updates?

A new installer or format changes perhaps?

Hey everyone, it's been a while, but it looks like there's a crapload of apps now. So... does anyone know a fast way to install everything into the suite? It would literally take hours to install it all manually, and the "Standard" suite version only has 10 apps or so.

I looked at the 2.0 beta updater, but it seems to only update the apps you've already installed, and not actually install new ones.

Hi,
I downloaded Poodle and created some quizzes for offline use in a computer lab.
When I copied Poodle into the local harddisks in the lab PCs, and ran my Moodle quiz, I found that I could not see my audio or video files (audio was mp3 and video was flv formats, respectively)
When I was creating these quizzes on my own PC, I could view these files and there were NO ISSUES viewing, listening and playing them back.
This only occurred when I transferred the whole Thumbdrive Poodle data into another PC.

Hope all is well. I was curious to find out if there is a guide on how to update a portable app ourselves. This would allow the end user to be able to update an app while the official PA package is developed. The reason I ask is that there have been several Apps that have been updated in the last couple of weeks, but not the PA version. If I new/understood how to update the base app myself, that would be helpful.

Hello,
