Disregard, because it seems the problem is solved right now.

jobbe, i am having same problem all the time, i have several usergroups for DownloadsII
Can you tell me what you did to fix that problem with "crossing" permissions?

Thank you

Helo...I got an request..

Been longggggggggggg enough ..many of us are waiting for system "pay points per download" system
i believe many of us will be gratefull if DownloadsII get intigration with vBCredits - Ultimate Points System
So user have to pay points(which user earned bu post)for each downlad.

Thanks

thank you ..

Nice mod...but i wanna make some changes and dont have any idea how to do...

How it looks, all files are uploaded into the ./downloads/ folder...
I've made a lot of categories (for a lot of files), so i created ./downloads/subdir/ and uploaded some files into this directory.

When i go to ACP > Downloads > Import and set [..]/public_html/forum/downloads/subdir/ as path to import, no files are listed in the overview.

Aren't subdirs supported for this script?
Coz...well... it would kinda suck, if i would have to upload 1000+ files from different categories into only one directory.

-----

Also... i wanna add a picture to the file-details page.
For example... the file is called 'application_v1.exe' and i do have a directory ./downloads/images/ with a file called application_v1.jpg...how can i realize that this image is shown up in the file-details, when it exists and otherwise a default-image is shown there?

The php-code is no problem so far...
I just need to know in which part of the code i can get the filename to compare it with the images and where/how i need to set the "$fileimage" variable for the templates...

Thx so far...

I would also like to be able to use subfolders for storing files if possible.

Superb Mod. Just what i was looking for.. But although i have marked as install, i wont be using it till support for really large files (greater than 100mb) is added. an ftp option wud be terrific!! Keep up the great work :)

Also can you add java applet based uploading for large files. That would be a very useful feature apart from ftp.

Please do add that option in the next release. Waiting eagerly.

Edit: Can something like this http://upload.thinfile.com/resume/ be integrated into this mod for uploading file?

This is an excellent hack that i've been using for a while. Recently though, my forums were hacked. Somehow a hacker managed to get a malicious file onto my server's filsystem, which then proceeded to delete all files within writable folders (777). Luckily my host does daily backups so it wasn't a train smash for me.
I don't think he found a backdoor through the DownloadsII hack, but I would like to know some more information with regards to security. Is it all possible for a hacker to use this hack to upload mailicious files? How secure is this hack and the writable downloads folder?

hmmm....

I am missing something here.

I installed it as directed but I don't see a downloads section anywhere on my forum.

Did you made the necessary edits to the navbar? Read the readme file again. All edits are given. you can also access the download page via www.yourforum.com/forum/downloads.php (ie if your forum url is www.yourforum.com/forum)
