Subforum-filter for search

Submitted by dired on July 12, 2015 - 4:03pm

The search should have an option in what subforum (on what page) to search, at least in the "Advanced search" on the results-page. That would be very useful, as of now, you can't do many forum-related usfeul things with the search. For example I can't search for help for a certain portable app, if I enter the search term, results of any place on the website (or forums if i selected that in advanced search) are displayed. I bet an often use case is to find something on the website in general, anyhow, to be able to use the search for the forums precisely.

Any way to install non-Portableapps.com apps onto flash drive and bee seen by PAP?

Submitted by prr on July 8, 2015 - 6:20pm

I installed the Portable Apps Platform onto my flash drive, as well as the Firefox browser. However, the graphics program I like (Faststone) offers its own portable program, and is not available as a download here at this site. I tried simply copying the folder onto my flash drive, but the PAP does not see this in the flash drive and list it in the index/start menu.

Is there any way to install a non-PAP app onto the USB drive, and have PAP see it so I can have a shortcut in the start menu?

Update Check for Filezilla from Platform... does it work?

Submitted by Michael Europe on July 7, 2015 - 4:48pm

Hi,
many thanks for your work...
I'm using Portable Apps Platform,
one of my Apps is Filezilla.
When I launch it, it says there are updates; but when I check for updates from Platform, it says no updates are available (for any App).
Do you experience the same thing ?
I'm using Filezilla 3.10.1.1 (it says the newest version is 3.11.0.2) ; Platform version is 12.0.5. My OS is Windows 8.1.
Thanks in advance...

Crash: specified module not found

Submitted by zfred on June 20, 2015 - 3:44am

On double-clicking "start.exe" on USB drive root, grey portableapps frame appears but program stops there. Popup specifies module not found. ClassID:{56FDF344-FD6D-11D0-958A-006097-C9A090}. This has only appeared since upgrading to 12.05. Have tried to uninstall and reinstall but have the same problem. PC is Windows 7 Pro. Has not been upgraded since August 2014. Thanks
