helps power the product installs and configural

Has developement stopped on this David??

Not at all :) I should have a new version released tonight hopefully :)

- David

I am so pleased about that m8....

I couldn't get this to work, I got a database error when adding a category and I couldn't set a valid downloads folder.

** Updated to 1.2.0 **

This version introduces a number of exciting features into the mod that we hope you will enjoy.

Changes:
Post to Thread*** - Allows administrators to select which forums they would like new threads to go to on a per-category basis with configurable messages.

Delay Downloads*** - This will allow you to add a delay to downloads per usergroup. For example, if you put a 10 second delay on the Registered Users usergroup, when they click a file they will need to wait 10 seconds before it is available. There is also an optional advertisement option that is configurable in the vBulletin Options section of your administration panel.

Category Images - This will remove the default text based category names with an image of your choice allow for a much nicer looking downloads homepage.

Searchable Area - This is a central location where users can view all downloads based on a certain criteria. For example, they could view all files based on the amount of downloads they have.

Profile Tab - This will add a profile tab to user's profiles which will display all of their uploads.

Notification on comment *** - This feature will give users an alert when another user has commented on their upload.

Those marked with *** are pro only features.

This version also fixes an issue that was present with categories from the previous version. We hope you enjoy this update.

Upload the file attached to this post and run it. That will give you the correct value.

I am currenly investigating this problem and should have a fix provided soon.

Sorry, that should be

[SQL]
ALTER TABLE vb_dbtech_downloads_categories
ADD COLUMN parentid INT(15) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'
[/SQL]

- David

[sql]ALTER TABLE vb_dbtech_downloads_categories
ADD COLUMN parentid INT(15) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'[/sql]

should be

[sql]ALTER TABLE dbtech_downloads_categories
ADD COLUMN parentid INT(15) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'[/sql]


no ?

anyway
this is the error that comes up
Duplicate column name 'parentid'

Thanks and could climb and work perfect

I seem to be having issues with the profile portion - The tab doesn't work correctly for me.

Are you running vb 4.0.8?

There is a known issue with some profile tabs and vB 4.0.8, however the fix would break the functionality in 4.0.7 and below - we're still trying to find a solution that will satisfy both.

this is one thing thats holding me up from upgrading my live site..
vb.com and there css change to the profile tabs..

they screwed up the tabs in my option..

in return has all the tabs for the mods looking bad..

so I am stuck till I figure something out

don't get me wrong I did upgrade the test board .. but everyday I find something i don't like..

I know there are trying to eliminate the over load of css but they should of left them alone..

There was no file attached to the reply you sent me.

Sorry!

Here you go! :P

this is certainly the successor of rsjelle downloadsII, thanks
Got tired of rjelle lack of support and new feature implementation, despite his great efforts before

Excellent mod! This has enabled me to switch from DownloadsII seamlessly!

One question, though....I have attempted to alter the .htaccess file to increase the size of downloads allowed. Is this the proper way to go about this, or is there another way I should go?

if you have access to your php.ini file, def change it there vs trying to do the htaccess way. But either is acceptable.

it has many problems with me

Could you perhaps give us any examples? It's not really possible for us to fix problems without knowing what they are =(

Iain

The Thumbnail doesn't appear
also some times when I add link with the file it doesn't work and the file not upload and it show this characters ( < ) only I couldn't find where is the problem.

I tried to add ( docx) extension from the admin but it show already it's there and in fact only doc there ,, so when I try to upload file it say ( Invalid file type found. Please go back. )

Thanks for your support
Best Regards

That script sounds interesting. A question though. Is it possible to manually add downloads where the source is not an uploaded file but a file that is linked from some other webspace ?

Cheers

Wolf

The mirrors feature allows you to add links to files :)

Hello,

First thanks for your plugin!

I have a few questions! :)
Is vbSEO compatible with vbDownloads?

On your demo Web site, the categories are in two rows?
Is it possible to have one category by line?

Are the listing look/theme easily customizable?
For example, is it possible to have a listing more compact such as http://www.minatica.be/downloads/cat/2-Audiovisueel ?

looks nice - has somebody custom url rewrites for seo for this product ?

We haven't had any users complain about incompatibilities with vBSEO :)

With edits to a template I believe it is possible to have categories show on by one.

The dbtech_downloads.css file contains all the css used within vBDownloads. Editing that should allow you to achieve the desired results.
