Silent updates
« on: 27 05 2014, 10:53:26 »
Silent updates are now implemented in PluginUpdater. With this option enabled Miranda will download the updated components automatically and notify about it with popup, no user interaction required. The real update will occur when Miranda is restarted by user whenever he wants to.

Sweet!  ;D  8) Love this option. Will it function so that we somehow are noticed? Like that Event Area reads "Updated plugins" or something so we know when a restart might be needed?

skitungen, It will show popup after finished updating.
I was developing mainly Facebook, Omegle, Steam, Dummy and MobileState plugins. Now I'm retired. Goodbye, everyone. ~ You can still find me on Facebook.

Thanks! :-) Keep up the good work!  :DRINK:
Will we be able to make it stick so it doesn't go away with default time set as well?

I think you can change interval in Options / Popups / Plugin updater for all PU popups :)

lol .. good one! Will this new version be downloadable now/soon or will we have to wait for next stable update of miranda? (read somewhere that you "flush" out plugins as you release new version of miranda).. I mostly just run stable version.

"starting tomorrow" was regarding popup. New version is already here with today's dev update. And of course no updates in stable versions - this is why it's stable - no new features there. If we would update stable version every day - it would become dev version. So one should decide - what does he want more - new features here and now or more or less tested version with no surprises.
