sBorg for a lot of people stopped working because of the change to filesonics APi.
The developer should supply a free update. Customers cannot be expected to pay every time a modification is required to make it work. All providers of sBorg clearly state that sBorg works with (in this case) Filesonic. Therefore the suppliers either change the wording or make it work for free.
My second point is that sBorg 5.5 is in beta stage. Somik is asking for bug reports of which there have been many. plus more updates. 5.501 and 5.502
Why do we have to pay for a beta version that is riddled with bugs and be without service for days with no mention of compensation for our loss of time plus the work reporting to the developer the problems with their software.
Incredible :facepalm:
For the line in bold, we were making the next version already but it was being delayed because Somik was busy with his university exams and I was busy with my job.
Filehosts started changing their upload patterns and the sBorg plugins, not compatible with the change, were throwing errors as expected. As the v5.5 was already being made, we considered it best to release it rather than releasing bug-fixes individually for the non-working filehost upload plugins. The previous version (v5.4) had 20 patches after it's release, the final version was v5.420 in case you never observed.
From your point of view, it may sound like a small update. But when you have around 100 sBorg users on your hosting and wish to perform an update on all of them, it's very time consuming. We, on our hosting, have asked clients to open a support ticket if they wish to upgrade.
Regarding your second point (again in bold), if you wish to use the updated filehosts you'll have to get your sBorg upgraded or buy an install ticket yourself and upgrade it. Kindly don't confuse yourself with update and upgrades. Updates are bug-fixes or patches that we release if the issues can be taken care of by replacing a few files. Upgrades are released when changes are made to the core functions/files.
If you have any issues with the script, kindly raise a support ticket here : support.sborg.us rather than asking your reseller or hosting provider.
I hope you get the point. Sorry for the big reply, wanted to explain this to all the sBorg users
