please, can you integrate this feature? It is really very useful.

I've searched this thread and not found a way to update the counter in the postbit. My test user has uploaded 5 files. All counts show that there are 5 files, except in the user postbit, it shows three.

I tried running the query "UPDATE dl_main SET downloads = 0" as posted here, but that did not fix the postbit counter. Any thoughts?

i have the problem yet ...

I seem to be having an issue where I have 4 download categories and several user groups. Some user groups have access to a few categories and other user groups have access to other categories. If I have a user that has access to multiple user groups then that user can only see his download category not everything.

So if I have download categories A, B, C, and D and I have user groups 1, 2, and 3:

Usergroup 1 has access to downloads A, and B
Usergroup 2 has access to download C
Usergroup 3 has access to download D

If I have a user that has access to usergroup 1 he can see downloads A and B - Perfect
but if I add usergroup 2 to his profile then all he sees is download C - Not so good

Now usergroup 1 download permissions are set to show categories A, B
usergroup 2 download permissions are set to show only category C

It seems that downloadsII uses the most restrictive permissions on usergroups to decide which to display instead of being inclusive.

This is the SAME issue as #3746


Any ideas, or help would be appreciated.

I spent about a week implementing and evaluating both DownloadsII and Links and Downloads Manager. I really like the layout of the DownloadsII file area better than LDM. The presentation is better and it's more intuitive. But the absense of a progress bar made it a choice I couldn't go with. LDM has a very well implemented progress bar for uploads so the user's browser doesn't just sit there churning with no feedback during large uploads. In addition, LDM's developer is more responsive in his forum. Of course, DownloadsII's developer does this for us all for free so it isn't fair to complain. But (at least at present) it seems LDM is better supported.

If DownloadsII ever adds a progress bar like LDM's I'll probably switch over.

I am trying to add my IntelliTEXT (Vibrant Media) ad's into the downloads mod. But I am having trouble making them show up. I use conditions so that the ad's aren't everywhere on my site, just on the showthread template. But I want to add them to my downloads as well.

What should the condition look like or more to the point, which template should I be using for the if condition?

This is what I am using now.

As a matter of fact. I can't get Google ads to show up either.

This is a great modification .. as many can attest to! :up:

I had one question. My 'collapse_tcat_collapsed.gif' image is a very light image that doesn't work against the background of the 'download area' (see attached image).

How can I change the path? I want to change the image to something else and need to point it to another image.

Thanks again for this great mod!

Hi. My users are getting this error when trying to download:

//EDIT//
Nevermind. I changed the permissions on the ./downloads//ec_tmp/ folder to 777 and now there is no error.

Is there any way to not show the sub-sub-categories on the main page? I would like to show only one level of sub-categories on each of my pages.

Thanks!
