Hi,
What do I have to do to create a new trigger? At example if I want to have an event at content/download/....I have extended the AvailableOperations parameter in the workflow.ini. Now I can see the trigger in The Trigger list but if I use a workflow nothing happens.
So does anyone know what I have to do???
Thanks for your answers
Andreas

New triggers are non-trivial, but you may find a clue here:

Nothing in live is trivial ;-)
Creating new workflows is not the Problem. I want to use a Workflow to check if the download-file is only uploaded on our ezserver or is also located on our download server so I can give the user different Download Server.
So I need a new trigger at the download action and there is no documentation about creating a new trigger position.

OK paul,
you are absolutely right it is not trivial. I have spent al lot of time reading Exponential code. That’s what I found out: Not every function in Exponential can have a trigger, in kernel/content/download.php is no code that watches for a trigger.
If I want one, I can "hack" the download.php or I write my own download action. So I think I have to write my own download module, because I want to have a clean easy to update Exponential version.
Ok, of we go!There is always a new thing to learn about Exponential.
Thank'sAndreas
