lovely, installed on 3.8 RC2 board, works like a charm..

Tx.. Installed.

can anyone tell me how to increase the file size for uploading, i followed the instructions in the post provided using a .htaccess but all that did was give me an Error on every page i went to?

can someone provide any hints or clues as to what i did wrong or what i need to do?

Basically i opened notepad and added the code it said, changed it to 1000 on both lines and then saved it as just .htaccess i then uploaded it to the forums folder where my Download.php is located and it showed as HTaccees.HTACCESS file, but all it did was screw up my board. what did i do wrong?

EDIT: would it be possible to allow users to add a small logo or banner to their downloads so when a user has clicked on a file to view the author/description and the download link, they get to see a picture (so people can screenshot it to show what it looks like etc or to have a logo/icon?

You need to contact your webhost. Anybody suggesting how to do php overrides here is taking a pot shot in the dark about what host you use and how your host has the server setup. Check your webhosts forums, the info is almost always there, if not a email asking how to change php values on a per directory basis will do the trick.

Ok, thanks for the info. Ar you talking abou tweaking the downloads mod or my skin?

Trying to customize the layout and look of the downloads page and running into some issues. I am working on the xhtml output. If you check the panel bit its meant to be a list item where as its outputting as a tr> etc. The panel sidebar is working fine but its just the actual panels "bits" that isnt being applied.

So, In summary i am changing the downloads_panel_bit, but its having no effect. i changed the downloads_panel_side no problem but for some reason the panel bit is possessed by a demon spawn and refuses to apply. I'm not using any caching currently.

Any ideas? Beuller.....Beuller?

Click the "Update Counters" link to empty the cache ;)

errummm

Under AdminCP->Maintenence and the category "update counters" or one of the plethora of options under that category?

It's not in the AdminCP, but in the frontend (at the top right, below the navbar of this screenshot).

I am such a dork. I knew that but totally forgot about it.

Thanks so much for the help.

I noticed upgrading erased the list of top contributors. Not a bid deal really, but thought I'd mention it.
