Buzztouch Server™ Plugins - Download link

Hi BT, Some time ago, you provided a download link for all the plugins zipped in one file. Now you reached 20 plugins and it is getting harder to download each of them one by one and checking if the version on the site is at least equal to what you have downloaded before. It would be great to put this link again on the BT Server Plugin page. Thanks for considering it. Vali

Hi. You can use the 'check for updates' in your self-hosted control panel to see if what version you are running and if it's up to date. You could also load the list of plugins and look at the versions. In other words, put both screens side-by-side and look at the lists (the list in your control panel shows the version and the list at buzztouch.com shows the versions so it shouldn't be too tough). Why did we remove the 'download all link?' We removed the download all link for a few reasons. Consider what would happen when there were 30, 50, 500 plugins. Super huge download, not good for users, not CHEAP for us ;-) Figured getting everyone used to the process early on was better than waiting until it was too late! Funny. We think a better approach is...and we've been working on this....to have your self-hosted panel connect and check for new versions automagically and let you know when something has changed.

Noted :) I know it wasn't feasible on the long run. Reminder for anybody reading this topic: http://crunchies2011.techcrunch.com/nominate/?ODpidXp6dG91Y2g=
