[Over done] Deleting completed links shows the dialog box again
Deleting completed links shows the dialog box again..
Hello why is this stupid problem come back again? And this time I can't find showdeletelinksdialogoption in advance settings.. please dev, we do not want this stupid dialog box appear each time.. -disable it or put a -checkbox - I do not want to see this again. When we delete stuff we don't want it done permanently from hdd. If we do, we would use explorer for that!!!! How many times do we need to say it? Just let us use the program without treating us like babies.. by popping up these stupid annoying dialog boxes.. Last edited by madmax2; 13.11.2013 at 13:20. |

the new dialog says i can set the option so that that dialogue won't show up again. but where is this option and how is it called. Previously there was an option called "GraphicalUserInterfaceSettings: Show Delete Links Dialog Option". It's gone now.
Here are the Screenshots (german): second dialog: expert settings filtered with "dialog": So at this time there is no way to delete downloaded links without confiramation except for pressing STRG+DEL |

I only know, that coalado changed this yesterday.
In menu manager for Delete menu items there are new options: <Bypass the "Really?" dialog> <Delete Files from Harddisk, too> I didn't set them, because I don't need these options, therefor I don't know how they work. I don't know, whether it's enough to set them for one delete menu item, and then all will be the same, or have to set for every delete menu item. Maybe it worth a try. |

You can't set this option for
-delete links - finished Also need to set this option for each delete -delete -delete submenu please just give us one master option/setting like in advance settings like before -showdeletelinksdialogoption We do not want to be bugged by these stupid dialogs.. Delete any links in linkgrabber No way to disable this.. -Are you sure you want to do this? Delete selected links There needs to be a way to permanently disable these stupid confirmation boxes.. cos it is driving me nuts.. Prior to the most recent update, there was none of these confirm boxes, or we could disable all of it from advance settings. Now we need to do it for each menu item. And some can't be disable at all. Also it is likely the menu settings will be reset after each update anyways. Last edited by madmax2; 14.11.2013 at 15:18. |

I too came here looking for a way to remove this option and to not show the dialog at all.
There should be an option to set a default action from those shown presently BUT to have the option to disable the prompt via a check-box. It would also be ideal to have the option show again following any updates that change the behaviour of the setting to ensure that the user's preference isn't altered to a state that causes data loss of their links and/or files. Besides that, why add an apparent safety feature (appears to me to be a cumbersome 'delete confirmation' type dialog) like this and then have it's default button set to the un-safe option of delete and not cancel as it defeats part of the purpose of the dialog appearing. |

Only delete the links from the JD but not permanently delete from HDD. If we want permanent, we would use Explorer. Now the developer can disable any confirmation dialog boxes, cos it won't be necessary anymore. |

that user is asking for an option to set something other than just removing the links from the list. what this thread is talking about is that the dialog comes up EVEN though a default has been set. simply put, the dialog is annoying and unnecessary. following on from what madmax2, pressing delete or another such method of removing links, completed or otherwise, should be silent because a default action has been set already so there is no need to have a dialog come up requesting confirmation of an action for each and every link/package. |

I would have said this definitely more friendly, however the main concern isn't too wrong.
My suggestion like in a previous version: a checkbox "use this setting for all further actions - and never ask again" or something like that in advanced settings. I think 99% of all users would like to remove only link-packages in jD and not any files from hard disk. So, maybe "remove" is a better description than "delete".

While I don't like the dialog box either, I find it a little strange that users are complaining about the confirmation dialog always appearing when deleting links, but when a user deletes a file via M$ Explorer, you get a confirmation dialog there as well, each and every time, with no way to turn it off (AFAIK).
Obviously there is a minor difference, in that these are only links and not files. I've done the above setting, so the next time a download is completed, we'll see if it works. |

But there is only a need to set it for once. Also we are deleting actual files, so it important to have a confirmation. With JD, there is like 5 to 6 delete options... And each needs to be set. Also when most ppl delete, they are mainly interested in deleting the links, not the actual files.. To be bugged by these confirmation is annoying!!!!!!!! Quote:
We want an advance setting like before.. So it disable all confirmation dialog boxes.. We don't want to checkbox each of those delete submenu That's more work for us! then the next update it resets again. Also some can't be checkbox.. -delete selected links in linkgrabber.. Just bring back an advance setting to disable all dialog prompts You are not getting the point/problem of this thread!!!!! Last edited by Lram32; 15.11.2013 at 16:45.

How is this thread been marked as solved when it clearly hasn't been!
It seems that jdownloader's development could use some more rigorous ITIL type incident\change management processes so that issues, concerns, etc., can't have their reports closed under the resolution of 'oh well, sh*t happens!'. At very least I would expect an explanation from a dev as to why the global 'disable all delete prompts' option is no longer available or as to their thoughts about how each and every delete option needs to have it's own dialog disabled (and potentially have them default'ed after an update). |

I've never gone looking for that setting as I prefer to be prompted. Didn't even know it existed, even after all of the years. It has saved my a$$ more than once, though I have hit OK even though I shouldn't have.

What exactly do you want?
Disable all delete links confirm dialogs in linkgrabber and downloadlist? GreeZ psp EDIT Please make a list of all dialogs which you want to be able to disable the confirmation dialogs for. Also add screenshots.

that's all we want. No need to make a list of all dialogs. Since the main complaint is the removal of the "disable all delete dialog" in advance settings.. |

Basically imagine if your mp3 or media player tried to remove your files off your drive when you removed them from a playlist!! That would just freak people out, no amount of "just read more carefully" would solve that because something that destructive shouldn't be an easy option in the first place. Its about user expectations and consistency in interfaces. Please remove this "feature" as default, no files should ever be deleted by the download gui list manager unless you go out of your way to make it that way. Mipony used to have this problem too, I pretty much uninstalled that program once I realized it had wasted a lot of my time when I cleaned up the download list and found out it had gone and deleted my files off my disc, its just bad user interface design. It shouldn't be advanced to turn it off, advanced option should be to turn on the dialog with options. Default shouldn't prompt the user with something potentially dangerous, and basically force them to double check each time they delete to make sure they don't screw themselves, its an extra bit of stress, sure they can eventually find the advanced to turn it off, but it shouldn't be the default, it should be the other way around.

It's not that easy. If you want, count how many "The are you sure Dialog is missing" and how many "I hate these Dialogs" reports we have.
They are both existent! What I did to make everybody happy (I hope so):
Anything else

I'm sorry, but I don't understand - if I enable "Help Dialogs", then I avoid help dialogs with "do not show again" ? ie. if I want help dialogs with "do not show again" - as it was previously, if I remember well, should I enable or disable this option ? |

It's not that hard, just search delete word
The dev, seems to have fix this issue that can satisfy ppl -ppl who hate the dialog confirmation box -ppl who love it. thanks dev... now I can turn off all dialogs with one advance setting. |

searching for delete won't find the new setting I had to undo, it's called "GraphicalUserInterfaceSettings: Rly Warn Level".

I do agree, that naming it Rly is bit weird..to use a messaging shorthand.. |

Some thoughts:
The best solution is the grouping of settings - such as "window management" or "bubble notify". In Advanced Settings good searching words are needed in the option names or values, to help to find the coherent settings. In this case for example "delete", "warning" , "deleting/warning". Readability: For example "GraphicalUserInterfaceSettings" is too long : no need for the "setttings" word, GUI is enough, like Log, Reconnect, BubbleNotify. Something like "GUI/xxxx" could be useful, there is too many "GraphicalUserInterfaceSettings" . |
