before u make this insult , do u know what is the duration between first try in publick 3.0.0 beta and the gold one?


sorry for myself that i be down to your level , i think that i talk about download script not talk to down level

BrB :ermm:

Ron1n hey man. Nice release, keep up the good work.
Do you know when next version is out?? the search function is vital for me, i really need it as I have a huge download database!!!

and btw dont care about the people who say that you rip.

need help,, I think my templates may be fubared,,, I only get a blank screen when trying to access http://ampsquad.us/forums/downloads.php?. Is there a fix. I followed installation instructions to the letter.

disregard,, just removed the addon, and reinstalled it now works

Hi,

Is there a way to automatically fill in the author box when you go to upload a file (to save users time since they're just gonna put their name in).

Also, is there a way to make it so that you can click a link next to the authors name to give them reputation?

Thanks!

Ron1n : is their a way to include a picture in the comment of the file, with a HTML tag or vbulletin tag like https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/ hosted somewhere else (I don't need an upload addition or anything else, only include an image :)

Also, is their a way to add a texte somewhere on the home of the download page with some instructions ?

@ThomaS: yea - in the next version

@everyone: i released it... https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=91696

Thanks.

I didnt think of that because a lot of people upload things by say... google or microsoft. However, its a good idea and I will use it.

Yes, another good idea. I will add that too.

By the way: EXPECT A 3.0 for 3.0.7 by this weekend. I still need beta testers for this version so please MSN ronin@elitecoders.org if you want to help out. Dont PM me or email me becuase I usually dont have time to read either mailbox.

Sorry Ron1n, my english wasn't clear at all, so let me explain some of my notes in more detail.

Before approval I am not able to check the file, since I can not download it. (maybe my configuration is wrong, please correct me if I am wrong)

I mean: if you have tree categorizations (parent and child catagories).... for example

- Medal of Honor (Parent category)
-- MOH (Break Through)

Go to Manage Files and filter "Medal of Honor" category and you won't see any files from --MOH (Break Through) child category

My apology, but I do not know what you mean by that...

Another user should be able to leave comment for file/document. Sort of review..



I wanted something simple, like announcement or "I agree" check box (or I declare).... something that will inform user that he should be aware of copyrights etc...


P.S. I will gladly install 3.0 ASAP and get search and another features you already made

In downloads main page, the file counter say I have 0 files while I atleast have 20 but in sub-category. Will this be fixed in vbdownloads 3.0 (3.0.7) ?

Main thing I'd like to get working is the stats, they show 0 downloads for every day for the last 112 days which is odd as the total downloads shows 17517. This is the only thing that has steadfastly refused to work since upgrading from v1.0

Anyone has the upload template? I installed this on a clients site and the upload html is not correct after upgrading. (----- instead of cat. names)

Ron1n,
Seeing that vb3.5 is still in beta stage i believe and it also has very few hacks that have been ported, i was wondering if you can update the hack but leave it at vb3.0.7. Does the hack for vb3.0.7 include comments for downloads already? Because that is ALL i need!

same here Ron1n

How would you add the links to the bavbars?

news?

Anyone know how to link the downloads? I have a bunch of downloads on another server...anyway I can link them? The reason I do this is because the site and downloads are so big that this prevents a crsh from too many people downloading shutting the site down. If anyone knows anything abut how I might be able to link say something like... www.server2.com/files/something.zip to the downloads directory that would really help me. If this is not installed in the hack it could be an idea since many sites do this. Thanks for your help =]

news?

I am having a problem with this hack.I followed all directions and successfully installed it on a test install of vB (glad i didnt use my real vB forum yet) everything seems to be working fine everything shows up in admin CP,i can add,edit,delete downloads ect.but when i go to the actual forum to the download manager and click a catagory it doesnt do anything but go to a blank white page.anyone else had this problem or know what could be causing it?

When i click the links to the catagories....

all i get is this.....
http://img343.imageshack.us/img343/4718/test25nz.th.jpg

note all that shows up in the page source with the blank page is

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

also note i already tryed completely removing and reinstalling it as well.I use vB 3.0.7

where is Ron1n, I need the version 3.0 urgently!

I think he must be busy.i attempted to contact him via msn as posted on a previous page as i was interested in beta testing for the new 3.0 and also reguarding my problem but he wouldnt reply back.

By the way a freind told me the script may not work because the server is a windows server instead of linux.anyone know if this could be true?

http://www.sweta.net/forum/downloads.php?do=cat&id=3

Blank Page :confused:

Update-I finally got this script working,warning to all users.It seems this script will not work on windows servers.I tried installing it on my server space and kept getting blank pages but when moved to our new server which runs on linux it works perfectly fine.

:EDIT:Also i have a request/idea that i think would be a nice added feature for future released.

It should have a sort of import option.for example say you have already uploaded a folder of JPG's to your server and want to add them into this download manager.It should allow you to bulk import all files from that folder into your download manager listing.Would be really nice :)

is version 3 releazed for 3.0.7?

bah!! where is he. i need version 3 for 3.0.7!!

agreed...

HI folks,

i have a big Problem with vbDownloads!

-> http://www.r32-club.de/index.php?page=?=dload

I cant open my categorys :( evertyime i click at a category i became only a white site in IE :-/

i re-installed vbDownloads many times, but i have everytime the same problem.

can someboda help me?

greetz&thx

Are you on a Windows server or Linux?If you are on windows this could be caused by improper settings for certain permissions.I had the exact same problem but once i tested it on the linux server it works fine.

Hi,

I installed your mod v2.0 and it works like a charm. However, the category does not show the number of correct files inside it.

It will show the number of correct files if it is CATEGORY --> FILES
It will not show the number of correct files if it is CATEGORY --> SUB-CATEGORIES --> FILES. It shows that I have zero file when indeed I have more than that.

im on a Linux server. I dont find the problem :-/

I have the same problem, it will be fixed in version 3.0. But where is it??

What do you mean by where is it?

I assume he means vBdownload 3.0 thats compatible with vB3.0.7 because Ron1n posted this on page 43-44 and that was back on July 6th

BTW... xhybrid - greetings to "pierre" ;-) when will I be able to drive one of those HGP-Golfs :D

Seems that this "hack" is a little bit buggy - hey? uninstaller even didn't edit mysql tables right way - did this manually to get this out of my system.

on my production systems it does not work at all (all windows(!)) :disappointed: - seems that there is no way of getting this to run on windows systems. question: who runs this script working on windows/ IIS6 ? fun anyone? i'd like to try again if someone has it running - but i don't believe... on my test system (lamp) it runs - but lack of documentation made me even more mad - oops - sorry - but someone like me (n00b) could save time in stead of testing this out. no critics - i like people spend lots of their time doing thinks like this one here - but I prefere havin' status "beta" on top of this post/ modification.

my problem is - there is no real alternative...

After several Hours I installed this great Hack.

Now I´ve 2 Questions.

1.) How can I add a new Box for Text between the Head and the Categories? In the Image you can see, what I mean.

2.) Is it possible to add any Subcategorie under a Subcategorie?

For example:

Categorie
- Subcategorie 1
-- Subcategorie 2

Thanx for help.

Now i´m sitting here allmost 3 days for installing this Hack...

Now I can do everything but I can´t download the Files.

My folder "downloads" have CHMOD 777 and I already integrated the Line:

chmod($INFO['u_url'].$newfilename, 0755);

into my dl_add.php

The File is named "Test" and the Author is named "-".

If I click on the Downloadlink I got this:

You don't have permission to access /forum/downloads/ - JAD [15331].rar on this server.

All Files I add has CHMOD 600??? Why this?

Can anybody help me at this Problem?

I have the same problem :(.

Have you given given the usergroups permission to download files in the usergroup manager?

If you mean, that I give permission to download, upload, manage and rate Files für Admins, registered User an other. Yes they all have these permission.

Is there anonther Place to change something?

I´m thinking the Problem is the CHMOD of the uploaded File, which are 600 an not 750 or 777.

And another Problem ist the Filename. I choose Filename "Test" and Authors Name "-". The File ist packes as an RAR File.

If I upload this File everything ist alright, but if I watch at the Server the File is namend "- Test.rar" with an Space between - and Test. Is this the Problem cause you said there have to be no spaces in Filename.
