Re-released for vBulletin 3 with permission from TWTcommish (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?u=422)

This hack shows you who has downloaded a particular attached file.

This hack was originally released by nguyenvu27 but was taken down because he didn't get TWTcommish's permission and it was fraught with bugs and errors.

Well I fixed it, made it an image instead of a button, included an image, made it cross browser compatible, and got TWTcommish's permission.
Enjoy ^_^

HTL Version: See Attachments

[edit]
Thanks for moving it!

[*arie]

yay! thanks.

[FleaBag]

Nice work, will definitely come in handy.

[MindTrix]

Nice one, some screenshots too the first post would be nice aswell please :) If you want this moved to vB3 aswell, PM an admin incase they don't notice

[Boofo]

Can this be made so only Admins and Mods can see it or is it like that already?

[Rein Masamuri]

Can this be made so only Admins and Mods can see it or is it like that already?
Ok, this took me a while to do because of the weird "yes and no" phptoHTML in the <if statements of vB3
This took alot of trick coding (ok, for me it was trick coding, not for all you regular coders out there :p)

If you want Mods and Admins to see it only, simply replace the postbit_attachments template with:<tr>
<td><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_attach]/$attachment[attachmentextension].gif" alt="<phrase 1="$attachment[attachmentextension]">$vbphrase[file_type_x]</phrase>" width="16" height="16" border="0" style="vertical-align:baseline" /></td>
<td><a href="attachment.php?$session[sessionurl]attachmentid=$attachment[attachmentid]" target="_blank">$attachment[filename]</a> ($attachment[filesize], <phrase 1="$attachment[counter]">$vbphrase[x_views]</phrase>)</td>
<td><if condition="$show['modcplink']"><a href="whodownloaded.php?s=$session[sessionurl]&attachmentid=$attachment[attachmentid]" onclick="NewWindow(this.href,'name','240','300','yes');retu rn false"><img border="0" src="$stylevar[imagesfolder]/attach/whodownloaded.gif"></a></if></td></tr>

If you want admins only, replace modcplink with admincplink

[Boofo]

Thank you, sir. I will install it and let you know how it goes. ;)

[gmarik]

Does it connects guest download IP's?

[MGM]

Nice one! I always wanted the one for vB2 but a certain hack I had interfered with it ;)

* MGM clicks Install

MGM out

[Rein Masamuri]

gmarik, you can view someones IP address in their posts or in the admin CP. I'm not quite sure how you'd want it added to the hack :\

[mitomcua]

Does it work with vb3 rc3 ?

[Rein Masamuri]

Yes it does

[Rein Masamuri]

Updated!
Who Downloaded is now HTL (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=60735) compatible!

[eXtremeTim]

Added htl version in to htl :) Good job.

[nguyenvu27]

Nice job ! i'm very happy . Rein Masamuri Thank bro ..:D

[Rein Masamuri]

And thank you for the original coding.
I wouldn't have been able to do it by myself ^_^

[esfron]

Does it work with RC4 ?

[Rein Masamuri]

Does it work with RC4 ?
Yup, works fine in RC4 though the postbit template may be slightly different.

[ChuanSE]

still no screenshot?

[Akex]

Nice work, i'll install it :)

[goldminer]

This is awesome Thank you so much I was looking at the one made for vb2 and really wanted to put it on vb3.4 and being new didn't have a clue this has eased my mind and helped a great deal Thank you so much.

[Rein Masamuri]

not a problem ^_^

[Gizmo]

A real good job, this hack must be useful. Thanx for it! :)

[Beermonster]

I'm using RC4 and get nothing when I load the whodownloaded.php it just says "No downloads found." :( any ideas?

[Rein Masamuri]

Are you calling it from the postbit or are you going to whodownloaded.php directly? It requires that you call it from the postbit so the attachment ID matches.

Ah!! I'm calling it from the whodownloaded.php directly, a bit of a noob question but how do I call it from postbit?

TIA

[Rein Masamuri]

It should be put in your postbit_attachment template.

[Flashinblue]

Excellent, thank you. I only replaced whodownloaded.gif with something that suited more the looks of my forum

[Rein Masamuri]

heh, it was expected ^_^
I originally did this for someone and decided to release it here and didn't think to change the image.

[PWolfrum]

Hello,

is it possible to modify the "Who Downloaded" Hack so that it writes the username of the downloader, the filename and date of the download to a seperate file ?

We need that function in our forum at the local university, in order to monitor the downloads of files, that are made accessible through the forum (mainly lecture materials and recorded lectures), for statistical purposes.

Thank you very much in advance.

With best regards.

[Rein Masamuri]

That'd require more PHP than I've learned so far but I give permission for another hacker to hack my hack haha ^_^'

[PWolfrum]

Hello,

@Rein Masamuri:

Thank you for your quick reply.

As a vB3-newbie, I have the following question:

Wouldn't it be possible, to insert an addition to the attachment-function of vB3, which would, if an attachment is downloaded, write the needed data to a textfile with comma as delimiters (and with a newline at the end of each line) ?

Thank you very much in advance.

With best regards.
Patrique Wolfrum

[PWolfrum]

Hello,

i spoke with my professor and he meant, that for him it would be sufficient, if the modification could "capture" the username and the download-date. Writing the data to a separate textfile wouldn't be that important.

Could this be done with your "Who downloaded" modification ?

Thank you very much in advance.

With best regards.

[vbIce]

What happened to the HTL file? I get error message when I go to the link.

Can someone please let me know if the HTL is still available or not?

Thank You

[Choclo]

[Experience]

[JaNa]

Worx Perfect,

Ah HTL always makes it easy :D

[welo]

Installed on 3.0.1. Works fine.

[paulomt1]

@Rein Masamuri:

How I can add the date and time of download?

Thanks for your help

[Intex]

I'm interesting in using the hack, but a screenshot would be nice to see how this works as I have a rather unusual style. Thx.

[Intex]

Installed and works well.

[Deska]

Install this hack looks fine (no error) but it still show me No Download although 25 times downloaded, :(
Btw, I use vb 3.0.3.

Any updates maybe?

Thats a vbulletin thing. In the options I believe it offers instant thread updates or hourly. something like that.

[Deska]

Thats a vbulletin thing. In the options I believe it offers instant thread updates or hourly. something like that.

I guess not.
Although 2 day pass, still show like that, so I guess not vbulletin options about thread updates.

One thing that I mean about no download is in who downloaded pop up windows.
Any idea?

[gvtexas]

I too am having trouble with this. Installation went fine. Popup shows nothing, nada, blank. After testing with several accounts, nothing is populating the download column in the mysql table.

Any ideas how to resolve this? V3.0.3

Cheers,
Gary

Edited, 9/12/04 - I got this to work finally. Turns out it was a small error on my part in copying text into a template. Going back over my steps found the problem, and it works fine now.

[welo]

Same deal here. Has something to do with what is being replaced in attachment.php. For instance line 124 of the latest attachment.php says:

WHERE attachmentid = $attachmentinfo[attachmentid]

While the hack instructions tell you to replace it with this:

WHERE attachmentid = $attachmentid

Cuases the whole system to break, and it cannot be fixed just by swapping it out with that new query condition (above). I already tried.

[Isaiah33]

still dosnt work for me it installs good but says no download it...s

[Hades-1]

Ever since i installed this hack i noticed that the thread shows the filename then the size followed by a cooma with nothing, even if its been viewed

IE:

blah.mp3 2.35MB, {Who downloaded gif}

Any ideas on this?

[LEAD_WEIGHT]
