What I'm going to do going forwards is default the AdvFN prefix to "www" unless an external file changes it to be something else.

 

For example, as of the 2.1.2012.02.04 version (not released yet), if you were to create an external file of smf-AdvFN-Prefix.txt that contained just "uk", then it would use "uk" as the prefix instead of "www". If the file can't be found, it stays as "www".

dont forget to use the latest version of the SMF add-in that Randy uploaded onto his SMF group page.

Advfn is now redirecting all US users to us.advfn.com which is causing issues with retrieving info from advfn.

That updated version fixed it, thanks. I see what you changed too, keeping up with that must be a pain :)

 

I was even able to paste the changes into my own highly modified version so I'm back up and running.

 

Thanks, great service as always,

@darkgreen,

 

Send me your paypal email and the version you are using.

I'll send you a fixed one.


I sent a PM. The message is in my "sentbox" but an "unable to save" message appeared when I sent it.

 

Another way to look it up in case that didn't work would be the paypal invoice ID, I mention I'm "darkgreen" in the "Instructions to merchant"

I am also seeing this and I am up to date on maintenance fees, I believe.

 

It looks like MSN changed it's asp links format perhaps?

 

The EPV data call builds:

http://moneycentral.msn.com/in…..mp;Symbol="&Ticker

 

When I navigate to the data manually it looks like the Ticker string builds as (for ticker GLW): symbol=us%3AGLW

 

Looks like my title is also v20110905a, but I'm not aware of missing any updates.

Can you email me what version you have?

Your 1 yr period expired about a year ago so you didn't get the update.

I'll try to send you an updated one for your version.

I am in Canada and recently (one or two month) I got all these #values in EPV and DFC. It was to my 100% satisfaction before this issue arose. this problem is for any ticker. Can you help me to resolve this? Thanks
