View Full Version : Download link in the games?

I've noticed on most of the invision powered boards they have a download link on each game which enables you download the game you're looking at (this is how I've got nearly all of my games). This is usually set up for affiliate sites or premium members etc, often limiting the amount of games you can download per day.

However on the Vbulletin sites I visit I see there isn't such a feature available.

Does anyone know of a mod/hack for doing this so I can allow downloading of games for certain usergroups etc? I've searched for quite a while on this one, and I haven't found anyone who has downloads for the games.

You have to wrap a conditional around the download link that only allows access to it by the usergroup you specify. For example:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 9">
<a href="yourdownloadlink">download here</a>
</if>



Assuming that usergroup 9 is your preferred download group. Other usergroups would even see the link.
