I have a small question. How do you add that linke "add a file..." above the Latest File column on the left?

Example : http://www.bhraja.ca/forum/downloads.php

I think this was done by editing the template downloads_panel_side. The link was placed at the very top of the template.

For example, if you wanted the words "Test Me!" to display where you have the link the template would look like:

Yes i did. I simply ftp-ed the filed to the server and linked them manually.

Is it possible for you to tell me what template changes need to be made to get the category icons to look similar to http://www.minatica.be/downloads.php

As far as there being a separation from the icon and the cat name

thanks

Hi,
my forum is running the 5.0.4 version.
I should like to upgrade but I am a bit scared :)
I have several important downloads, is there a possibility I lose them by upgrading ?

thank you

No chance at all. Simply follow the instructions. The only way you'd lose data is if you did an uninstall. Don't do that and you'll be fine!

It worked great, thank you ! :)

is there anyway you can give us ETA on the new version, please? Christmas maybe?

After the upgrade, I did not lose comments but I noticed the comment counts are showing 0.

Trying running "Update Counters".

i get this error when add a file

any ideas ?

That line (1392) is when the hook dl_post_upload_add is called. Are you running any of the DownloadsII add-on's?

yes i use DownloadsII PM and DownloadsII Create New Thread
i bet i miss sone settings :S

Yes i did. I simply ftp-ed the filed to the server and linked them manually.

the hyperlink for the most popular download is in this format >> http://www.xyz.com/forums/www.xyz.co...?do=file&id=19

I did it...
still 0 :(

is it possible to have keyword impleneted on every download files. it will certainly ease alot for ppl to get what they want.

That's pretty strange as the url is created like this:
So we take your vBulletin forums url and add the downloads part, which should work fine :)

Is your forum url correctly set in the vB options (without an ending slash)? Have you modified the DownloadsII templates?

Reupload (and overwrite) all the 5.0.6 files again to your forums FTP. You should have missed the /includes/class_download.php file which was updated to fix the 0 comments counter problem (after running the update counters).
I tested the fix and it should really work :)

@All: I just tested it and DownloadsII 5.0.6 works fine on the new vB 3.7 beta 2.

Hi Jelle

I have checked the url and it correct format. And i did not modify the quotes for the link.
I typed the location of the file in "Link to a File". Will it be convenient if you could view my site?

Thanks

Yes, that would be better :)

User are getting file not found errors on some downloads

Yes the downloads folder is 777 and all the files are 666. We installed VBSEO at around the time the downloads stopped working. Whould this have anything to do with some of the files not being found?

Yeah ! worked great.. thank you :)

thank you Jelle for your help :D

hi guys,

one of my users is trying to upload a 80mb file.. the upload works but there is no trace of the file. Any ideas? Is there a limit of mb that can be uploaded?

Thanks :)

Are you SURE the upload worked? Normally, your web server won't permit that big of an upload unless you've modified the config files or .htaccess.

From prior posts in this thread:

Like Jelle has said already, you need to create a file named .htaccess (note the period in front of the name). Put the following two lines into the file:

Upload the file into your forum directory (the same location where downloads.php is located.)

This will increase the size of the file you can upload to 30MB.

Thanks Cyb i'll try manually and give a look for the file you talked about.

with this mod, is it possible to restrict who can use the downloads per user group.

Yes.

Sory for them bump. Does anyone have any idea why downloads is not now findiing files?

I installed the plug in, add files is fine for me. However, I'm trying to import a mass amount of files and I get this specific error:

I have no idea what that means or how to fix it >.>

Do you see a listing of files when you click on import? If yes, are you selecting any of the files before you submit the page?

Nevermind, I seem to randomly fix it. However, its different now.

Be sure to check the "Import" box at the end of the file's listing too for each file.

The above error doesn't have anything to do with Downloads. Your mysql server instance is mad.

Yeah, its not liking big files to be uploaded it seems. However, since my current host limits HTTP speed, I need to figure out a way to allow uses to use download Managers with this mod. I've tried it and it only allows them to download downloads.php.

Hey now that 3.7 beta is out, will this work with this, or will some changes need to be made for it to work.

Thanks.

I tested it with beta 2 and it works fine (didn't test it with beta 3 yet, but that can't be a problem normally) :)

Thanks dude, my question got lost a few pages back :) Just testing it out now on our site and this mod rocks. Once I work out how to donate will send something to the author in the new year :)

Okay back to working out how to put the link into the forum so our massive 9 members can have a play with it. (We aren't live yet).

Very easy mod to install.

Uhmmm Stifmeister where the heck do you edit permissions?

Can't seem to locate anything in the ACP, though at this stage of my vBulletin education it's a place off the edge of the World. One of my other Admins is screaming at me not to change anything :D

They are in the "Usergroup Manager", just edit every user group and give them the permissions you want. ;)

Ohhh awesome feature for vB when you quote it doesn't include other quotes in the post :up:

Thanks dude, eventually will get around to working out the ACP.

Yeah that is standard vBulletin behaviour. I guess you've used Invision before? :p

Thanks for this mod I likes it very much ... it's save all my troubles to hunt for places to upload my files.

*Installed*

Thanks ~
