Name: one_piece
Chapter: 01

it will combine those 2 text fields together (seperated by "_" or anything I want) to make it become "one_piece_01"

Also, I've tried the to put in my forums dir .htaccess with:
php_value upload_max_filesize 25M
php_value post_max_size 25M

but it doesn't work, it gave me the error "500" for the whole site, anywhere i go i got that error. If I delete it the problem is gone, any suggestion?

For the first thing, I don't think we are going to create such a feature as I think you would be on of the only persons using "chapters". We try to integrate the most requested features in the next version.

An error 500 message is a .htaccess error. I would suggest you contacting your host to ask them why it doesn't work. Maybe they've blocked it, but that's pretty strange for a normal host ...

It happened after updating to 5.0.6 version

Find in your downloads.php

PHP Code:


		
			
header("Content-Type: $ctype; name=\"".basename($filename)."\";");

Replade with

PHP Code:


		
			
header("Content-Type: $ctype");

This fixed the corruption of some zip files (also occuring only in IE), but my fear becomes true: it causes some new issues :p
Please try downloading with IE6 and IE7 (before you do the file edit). I would like to know which versions it affects etc (and try some different files: not only zip files for example).

There's also IE7, the newest version. It's an additional XP Windows Update and the default browser of Vista. Just do the file edit I gave to you in the above post and it will be fixed.

Can you pm me the url of your forum and a test account, so I can download files. I want to compare some things with other sites.

Hmm, that's very strange. Are you sure you did the change correct, saved it and reuploaded downloads.php?

Another try, but I'm pretty sure this can't affect IE only or so:
Find in /includes/class_downloads.php:

PHP Code:


		
			
        if ((strrpos($this->url, '/')+1) != strlen($this->url))

        {

            $this->url .= '/';

        }

Replace with:

PHP Code:


		
			
        if (strrpos($this->url,"/") != strlen($this->url))

        {

            $this->url .= "/";

        }

It's not a DownloadsII feature, but it's possible if you are using vBSEO (there's a topic about it at the vBSEO forums).

You need to upload them after adding the file (so after submitting the file). The "Upload Images" form is at the bottom of the file page.

Be sure the "Allow Images" DownloadsII setting is enabled and the usergroup has got the "Can Upload Images" permission, otherwise you won't see it.

An example of what you should see: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...0&d=1154030030

But you can change such things pretty easily in the templates.

I already thought about such a thing as I know it from the Moodle e-learning CMS, but I don't think a lot of people have LibClamAV installed. Shared hosts probably don't want to install it as it takes some resources.

Open downloads.php
Find

PHP Code:


		
			
    if (!in_array($sortfield, $sortfields))

    {

        $sortfield = 'date';

Replace with

Hmm, if you need such a feature, I think you just have too much categories (or you should use a better sub-categories layout) :D
Even vBulletin hasn't got such a feature.

Like vBulletin it's possible to hide sub-categories on the main page if there are too much of them.

I am receiving this error when I tried to download a file from the DownloadsII system.

Quote:

Warning: copy(./downloads//ec_tmp/xxxxxxxxxxxx.torrent) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /downloads.php on line 700
ERROR: File not found.

Black Tiger

11-05-2007 12:19 PM

@BluAzn: I had that same problem. Downloads II creates the /ec_tmp directory and the webserver needs write-rights on that directory.
You could ask your hoster to install phpsuexec or give apache write rights to that directory.

Thanks for the last reply, just curious has anyone here asked for the download file queue time limit. What i mean is a feature set a time limit of x seconds and if user doesn't click on the link to download, it'll be expired and user have to go back out or refresh the page again in order to download. I think it'll be pretty useful because it'll prevent user from using download manager to download the files and take up all the queues for themself. And also another useful feature is when guest allowed to download file without logging in, they have to enter a Verification image (words) in order to continue and download the file just like with vbulletin, when you don't log in and you try to search something you have to enter Image Verification to continue. Just wanna put my 2c on some features that i think will be useful for all since this is a download manager script.

Hi Jelle,

after a user or admin upload a picture, the thumbnail is "readable", but not the original (big) picture.
After i looked into "downloads" folder on the ftp server, i could see, that the uploaded image is chmod "600" :-(

So where is the bug in the download.php ???

regards

PS: i use downloadsII 5.06

hey, i love this hack.... i've been using it for a while... but i was thinking today. is it possible to show more to the admin that how many downloads occurred.. such as... WHO downloaded?? knowing who downloaded what give me a better perspective..

kevcj

11-08-2007 12:23 PM

TheBlackPoet - this function is already built into DownloadsII.

Go into your administrative control panel, and look for "Downloads" in the left column. Select the drop drown arrow, and click the bottom link "downloads." That page will show you who has downloaded what file.

please explain clearly how can change defuld download directory?

sorry me for my english .

Hey guys!

I just love this hack. It's probably the most important feature on my site. I do have some things I would like to see in a possible next version. I hope you guys could take a look at it and comment whether it is doable.

1. Option to put the download in the profile of the Author instead of the person who uploaded it. I add a lot of files on my site which are made by others. I have nothing to do with those downloads but when the Author isn't a member on my site, I can't assign him as the uploader and the download appear on my profile and people will think I've made it. So I would like to have an option which you can set to automaticly put the download on the profile of the Author's name and if he doesn't exist than don't put it on anyone's profile.

2. Option to use the Author's name for the person who uploaded it. I add a lot of downloads made by others but I'm always so decent to use the "Assign Uploader" option and fill in the name of the Author so it appear on his profile. Isn't it possible to have a checkbox with "Use the Author's name as uploader" when you add a download? This will make it a lot easier and takes less time.

3. I know there is the option "Sort by Weight" and it's very usefull but I would like to have some categories sorted by weight but some alphabetically. Unfortunately, this isn't possible.

4. Another neat option is to show or hide sub-categories. I know you can hide them on the main page and on the category page and I've got them both turned on. But... I have some categories on which I really would like to show the sub-categories. These categories are in a third or even fourth category. So I would love to see that you can select "Show sub-categories" for some pages.

That's basicly it. I hope you guys could take a serious look at these extra features and hopefully you can add them in the next version. By the way, if you would like to have a demo site which has a well-filled downloads database please let me know. My downloads center has 676 files in 121 categories and 185,487 Downloads. A lot of the downloads has a screenshot added so it looks really awesome when checking a category and you see all those thumbnails.

Thanks again and regards,

Bozza

I also have got this, but it displays perfectly in the browser and you can remove it (with the delete link) without any errors. I don't understand the problem? Why should it have more permissions?

DownloadsII can't add files automatically. There isn't a standard method for this like RSS for news, so I don't know how we could implement this.
I don't understand this question? You can add and modify categories in the AdminCP. Modifying the look of DownloadsII can be done by modifying the DownloadsII templates of your style.

You can put a member in it (with auto suggest), but you can also upload for example vBulletin and put Jelsoft as the author, which isn't a member (just an example as distributing vBulletin is illegal).
For question 3: This is already implemented in v6 as this is requested multiple times already :)
For question 4: I think this is a bit a complicated method? Are you having that many sub-categories?

Find and remove in the downloads_file template:

HTML Code:

({$vbphrase['ecdownloads_uploaded_by']} <a href="member.php?u={$file['uploaderid']}">{$file['uploader']}</a>)

That's not a default feature as some people are using bigger images, which will mess up the layout. I'm doing it with some template edits of the downloads_main and downloads_main_catbit templates. You need to put a higher colspan value in the first template and put the category image in a separate td in the second template.

Change the permissions on the directory called 'downloads' (under your forum directory) making it writeable and executable (chmod 777) i want explain this option(Note for Advanced users: once you have installed the product, you also have the option to place the 'downloads' folder anywhere in your web server's path.)

That's the fact that you can rename the downloads folder, which is the default name of it, to something different if you want. Then you also need to change the name in the DownloadsII settings. There are no advantages of another name, but it's possible :)

And it's the name @ Uploaded by which gets the download shown on his profile. So for example if I upload vBulletin, I put Jelsoft as the author but since Jelsoft isn't a member, vBulletin will be shown on my profile looking like I'm the author of it and not Jelsoft. I would like to see that the downloads gets added to the profile of the Author's name and if that name isn't a member, don't put it on any profile.

For answer 3: Many thanks, sorry for not noticing that it was already requested multiple times.

For answer 4: I'm having a lot of sub-categories indeed. I have tons of categories and like I said, lotsa downloads. I have to try and make it look a bit organized. For example, when you want to download some logos you'll have to go to:
Football Manager 2008 ? Graphics ? Stickerbook V2 ? League Packs ? Europe

I can't show all categories on the main page coz that will make it look really messy. But I also can't make them all show on the Graphics page coz we are still talking about tens of categories. I would like to have them shown on the Stickerbook V2 in this example. Can't you add an option when editing/adding a category that you can show all sub-categories on the page of that category.

Browser error:
"Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /forum/downloads/kaisa_3oL.jpg on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

After i changed it to chmod 666, the picture can everbody see.
I don't know find any configuration in the admincp for that.
maybe i have to fix any .php file?

thank you 4 ur support

Quick question.

I'd like to say users have 1gig of storage but the individual files upload must be less than or equal to 20mb. Can this be done?

Thanks,

Then just change the Download URL of the DownloadsII settings to match the new name, but keep its's structure (./downloads/ -> the point and slashes are necessary in that way, like it's default).

The 1GB of storage can be set using the usergroup permissions. The 20MB per file can be accomplished by limiting it with a .htaccess file in the forums directory to limit the PHP maximum upload value.

Code:

php_value upload_max_filesize 20M

php_value post_max_size 20M

For example - http://www.domain.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=320 or http://www.domain.com/downloads/file-name/

No, with the PHP setting the upload will just time-out (blank screen). But you can edit the downloads_file_addit template to set a warning for your members.

i am trying to install the file but somehow i am having problems installing this and achieving the correct end result.

In my admincp >
i see downloads
Setting
Categories
Import
Downloads.

But in my forum i do see the link download or have any function to allow downloads.

I am using vb 3.6.8 and have only downloaded the DownloadsII 5.0.6.zip file. Do i need to download the addons to make it work properly?

Thanks
