WatchDirectory 4.5.6 Beta 2 - Combine Tasks

We have a new beta of WatchDirectory available with an exciting new feature:
Run multiple SubTasks - a way to do multiple "things" for a detected file.
It is only the most requested feature, and now we have implemented it.

Not all plugins are currently supported by the "Run Multiple Plugins" task. We will make more plugins capable to run as a SubTask in future releases. Also note that currently, a SubTask can not (directly) use the output-file of an earlier SubTask. We have great plans for this new plugin for future releases and we are open for suggestions.

After you have installed this beta and create a new task, you can find the plugin on the "Other plugins" tab.

Make sure to read the help for this plugin!

Visit our beta forum for the download.

WatchFTP 1.0.9

We have released WatchFTP 1.0.9 with the following fixes:

Download files from FTP sites automatically
  • If you configured a task to run as a Windows Service, the userid & password were not always properly set.
  • When a task starts it will first do a check upon the configured "local directory" to see if it is accessible.
  • When configuring/starting a Windows Service task, you should get better feedback in case of errors.
  • When configuring/starting a Windows Service task, the annoying "dos box" is eliminated.

You can download the new version here: http://www.watchftp.com/download.html
En Español - http://www.watchftp.es/download.html
Deutsche Version - http://www.watchftp.de/download.html

To install the new version while keeping all your settings/tasks etcetera, make sure to install it "on top" of your previous version. The installer defaults to your previous selections, so just "ok" through all the setup pages.
