Thank you for this! One additional tip to anyone making the plunge: if
you have to rescan your library for 7.4, import your trackstats AFTER
the rescan.
Like Erland I'm running Ubuntu and completely purged 7.3 before I
upgraded, so I had to rescan my tracks. When I imported my trackstat
file first it ran really slow and was filling the log with:
Code:
--------------------
Plugins::TrackStat::Storage::saveTrack (977) No matching alternative path
found for file:(my file path)
--------------------
I restarted the server, let the rescan finish, THEN imported my
trackstat, and it was great.
I have a question on a different plugin though Erland: in 7.4, Database
Query is not letting me create new queries. That is to say, there is a
list of queries, but no means to make new ones. I do note that in the
plugin settings dialog for Database Query, there is a value for Data
queries directory but no value for Data queries templates directory.
What should go there, and is that the problem with not being able to
make new queries? Not that when I copy 7.3 files (which I backed up)
into the data queries directly, they do show up in the query list, but
there's no way to do it through the web interface.
Thanks again!
