Are extensions created with Extension Builder 7.1 not compatible with WWB 18? After changes and publication, my extension no longer works.

All extensions should be compatible. This functionality has not changed.

If you need further assistance then please be more specific.
What does 'my extension no longer works" mean? Is there an error? What exactly does not work?

I have an extension for a video player that uses 3 xsl files: one for categories, one for movies and one for series. The same extension is used by both wwb17 and wwb18 on PC. The problem with wwb18 is that it no longer publishes one of the tables created by one of the xsl files and it no longer works. The same extension when I use it with wwb17 works perfectly. The serious thing is that I switched to wwb 18 and all the settings from wwb can no longer be recovered to return to wwb17 and it is work done in 3 weeks...
My test web for wwb17 : http://test.workpage.ro
In page source can see 3 tables: playlist and 2 "all_playlist_items", one for simple movie and one for serials. and work but with wwb18 first from 2 "all playlist items" not show and give error

This functionality has not changed in WWB18. xsl still works the same.

Maybe you have used different output HTML formatting settings?
It is very difficult for me to help you, without knowing exactly what you have done.
If you need further assistance then please provide a DEMO project.

The serious thing is that I switched to wwb 18 and all the settings from wwb can no longer be recovered to return to wwb17 and it is work done in 3 weeks...

If you have enabled backups then you will find a backup of the project in the backups folder.
Although I am sure your extension can work the same as in WWB17.

I left the extension untouched

I was referring to the HTML output format in the project settings.
The software has thousands of options and millions of combination. So, you will need to be more specific.
If there is a problem in the software then it will be fixed, but I can only help you if I know what you have done.

Unfortunately, the project will not help you without the actual extension and even if I send you the extension, you would have to waste too much time creating categories in the extension, entering the data in the 2 playlists and then testing it on the 2 versions of wwb (17 and 18). so you can see the error. I can do this if it helps.
I have not changed anything in the html settings. They are identical to those on wwb17. Thank you.

What I need from you is:
- the extension that has the problem (or a simplified version of extension).
- a demo project that works in WB17 but not in WB18 with all parameters filled in.

Again, it is important that you are using the same settings in WB17 and WB18.
In that case, the exact same code should be generated.

If i try to use extension new instalation...that work...but extension converted from 17 to 18 version not....i try to copy extension with all setings in a clean page = not work . But when i try to use extension with new install = work.... so all i need to do is make all settings again...

What do you mean by 'new installation'? On a different computer?

I really need to know more details to be able to help you. This could have already been solved if you provided the requested information.
Nothing has changed related to extensions, so this is most likely a configuration issue.

I'm attaching the extension, but it's not finished. To recreate what I did, use it in wwb17 on a simple page and then open the page in wwb18. For it to work in wwb17, it is enough to create a category and for that category to insert a movie (link even to youtube) in Playlist items and another movie (link) with the same category in Playlist serials. Then open the project with wwb18 and see that it no longer worked for you.

Can you please also share a DEMO projetc (wbs) so I do not have to go through all the settings?
or simplify the extension (remove all properties that are not relativant) so it's immediately clear what I need to do.

Unfortunately, I cannot remove enough properties because they have variables that in turn must be modified with fixed elements. But it is enough to add/modify in Playlist settings only to the headings categories, Playlist items and Playlist serials. Links to the test site are used in the attached project and should work. I mention that the project and the site are in wwb17 and work. If open and publish in wwb18 not work.
Project: https://www.mediafire.com/file/5fgir1dv ... t.rar/file
http://test.workpage.ro

I get the exact same results in WB17 and in WB18. The generated code is 100% the same for me.
What do I need to do to make it not work?
Or, where do I need to look to see a problem?

What differences do you see?

Here, although there are several playlists, I only see one playlist .. the one with Playlist serials, not the one with playlist items from the extension... which is why the error bar appears..

https://workpage.ro/page2.php

Sorry, but I have no idea where to look. There are so many settings and code.
Can you please tell me exactly where to look?
You will need to be more specific.

What is the difference compared to version 17?
What do I need to do to see it?

if you open page source from http://test.workpage.ro can see to table <ul id="all_playlist_items">. First is generated from Playlis_items setting (with .xsl file) and secound table <ul id="all_playlist_items"> is generated from Playlist_serial setting(with other .xsl file).
If you open page sourse from https://workpage.ro/page2.php you see just one <ul id="all_playlist_items"> generated from the secound table Playlist_serials. And for that not work.

Was this code generated with the same HTML settings and project?
There are many differences between the pages. Many objects have different IDs.

All I am asking is the same page generated with the same settings in WB17 and WB18. These looks like completely different pages.

Also, note that an HTML page cannot have multiple object with the same ID. This will result in invalid HTML structure.

My wwb 17 project has transformed by wwb18 and do not have original proiect..(backup). Also work If i try to use extension. cannot recover inițial settings.
Code is the some...objects not

But.. you have send me a project was created with WB17!
That project does not have the problem (for me).

If you load that DEMO project in WB17 and WB18, do you see any differences in the code?

Is bad cannot copy/ paste extension content settings.....
Forget that....will do from begining ....are my mistake dont make backup...thanks
