Ok REALLY PISSED at my host but I'm trying to calm down. Apprently BLUEHOST does not let you change the my.cnf file and can't do anything.

I need to locate an addon or plugin that doesn't keep a MySQL connection open the entire time. Sorry for being a pest but this whole experience is likely causing me to cancel bluehost all together but before I do so I want to see if theres a way around this.

Where can i edit the navigation bar for VBadvanced portal? On my front page the downloads go to: mysite.com/downloads but in the forums it goes to: mysite.com/forum/downloads which this is correct? How do I fix so no front page of portal got to
forum/downloads?

Thank You

AdminCP -> vBa CMPS -> Default Settings -> vBadvanced Global Options -> Navbar Replacements

Add downloads.php to the list ;)

Thanks so much!! WOrked like a charm now I learned something new! :)

Hi, I was also wondering how to make it so the "preview pic" on the side redirects to the download page. All my files are hosted off server, I noticed on your site clicking on the "preview pic" makes it redirect to the actual download page of the file. Whereas on mine when someone sees the list of files and clicks on the "preview pic" it redirects them to the page of the file that is hosted off server and not vbulletin. Like this:

http://www.minatica.be/downloads.php?do=cat&id=6

See the pics on the side? Clicking them brings you to the download page of the addon. On mine they bring you outside the site. I want users to be able to see the info by clicking on the pick, rather than being brought outside the site so quickly.

any word on adding swfupload functionality for a progress bar? i think it would quadruple the value of this addon.

Just installed this having used it on forums elsewhere - excellent mod !

Couple of questions (being a vBulletin Admin noob) :

1) increasing the file size - the .htaccess file - what filetype is this ? (sorry, not a web programmer etc)

2) I have a user who wants to make an ebook available for download. This has a folder structure etc and lots of hi-res pics in it - total about 320Mb (half a cd). Is it practical to make this available via Downloads II on a forum or not ? If so, best to offer as an iso file ? He has a pdf but the images are compressed and as it's about photographic art he really wants to have the hi-res pics available

3) assuming the above ebook is made available - likely impact on forum performance when users downloading (not likely to be many at any one time) ?

Thanks

Hi guys.

Hoping someone can help!

I recently moved service providers and since the move when anybody goes to download a file it comes up with the following error:

ERROR: File not found.

The directory is /forum/downloads

In the config it's set to ./downloads/

I can add files and it will place them in the downloads folder.

I can access the files directly by going to /forum/downloads/filename yet downloads app can not seem to find them?

Any ideas?

I've also replaced ./downloads/ in the config with the physical location of the directory /public_html/etc etc etc and still the same error.

Thanks for any help

Quick Question:

Is it possible to configure a category so that a user group can see the files but not download them

Any word on this? :)
