Scippy One,
I don't know if this is helpful, but getting something out from a Codeplex .Zip Archive is not so complicated as it seems at the first moment.
I give you an example with the helferlein_form project (https://archive.codeplex.com/?p=helfe...). When you unzip the downloaded archive, it creates a directory structure like this:
+---discussions
+---issues
| +---1003
| +---1008
| +---1009
| +---(etc)
+---license
+---releases
| +---0
| +---1
| +---10
| +---(etc)
+---sourceCode
| +---helferleinform
| +---(etc)
+---wiki
+---Render
+---681735
+---687658
+---913204
+---(etc)
Most of these folders speak for themselves, therefore I don't go into details. To get the latest release pack, open the file releaseList.json in the releases folder using a text editor, and look at the last entry:
{
"Id": "17",
"Name": "02.03.10",
"DevelopmentStatus": "Stable",
"Description": "!! Issues fixed\n\n* (etc)",
"ReleasedDatge": "0001-01-01T00:00:00",
"ModifiedDate": "2014-09-01T10:57:48.097-07:00",
"Files": [
{
"Id": "d73f0027-5eed-4110-84c7-4419d9d2fba8",
"FileName": "helferlein_form.02.03.10.pa.zip",
"Url": "./17/d73f0027-5eed-4110-84c7-4419d9d2fba8",
"Type": "Application",
"UploadDate": "2014-09-01T10:57:10.297-07:00"
}
]
}
In the subfolder 17 you find a file called d73f0027-5eed-4110-84c7-4419d9d2fba8. Rename this to helferlein_form.02.03.10.pa.zip, and that's it.
Happy DNNing!
