Thanks a lot :D

All is fine now. Except it wont except the extesion bmp even when I add it to the list??

Suddenly we are getting file not found errors. The files are physically there, 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?

Thanks in anticipation

hi i just moved servers. all of the download links are telling me Error: File Not Found.
I know its correct because all of the thumbnails work, its just the download link to actual files.

Can someone please help?

Hi DownloadsII Users :)

If i change a Users nickname in vbulletin, the database tables of DownloadsII did not change. the column
dl_downloads.user
or
dl_files.uploader
or
dl_comments.author
or
dl_images.uploader
are existing with the old "username".

Is there any possibility to mass-update / mass-sync all nicknames in the DownloadsII tables with the actually existing nicknames in the vbulletin user table?


Thank you 4 ur support :)

I have this Mod, but I have noticed something with happening with it. I have it set up so that a member with less then 30 posts can only download one file per day. The thing is, I've notice that there are some people that are able to beat this and are downloading multiple files in a single day. How are they doing this, and how can I stop this from happening?

EDIT:
Also I have noticed that whenever we add a file, some files become unapproved, or unpinned. Is there a way to stop this as well?

I know the amount of questions is accumulating so I am unlikely to get a answer, but is there anyway to get the thumbnails bigger?

Thanks

Could I suggest an optional captcha prompt (e.g: a random question) for every download?

I'm having trouble getting this going on a clean install of 3.6.8 (no other hacks... yet). The install went smoothly from what I can tell, but I kept getting the standard vB "nopermissions" when going to downloads.php even though I have set them several times. When I went back to do it again, I noticed all of them are back at the default "no" and continue to revert back to this. Obviously, the permissions I set are not making it into the database...

Well, it doesn't appear specific to this hack as I've just installed PhotoPlog and I'm getting the same problem for it's permissions. Hopefully, some commonality between the two will make the problem easier to find...

After a little more digging I'm finding it's a little more complex of a problem. I don't know how the number-value in the database is calculated from the form inputs, but that is probably where the problem is happening. I get a different outcome every time I try a different combination of permission-options... ranging from all yes, to all no, to completely random ...and some permission-options work just fine if they are the only ones changed.

The stock permission sets are unaffected by this, it's only these two (now) add-ons.

/me keeps digging...

Hello
im having a major issue due to high load im experiencing. The hosting company strongly recommended me to move all files to ftp as the cpu is being extremly drained and causong the server downtime almost everyday.

But the issue is that i cant rename all files to ftp since i have uploaded all files on admincp and import and theres no url for me to edit that :( please advice

Since upgrading from php4 to php5 I keep getting the following errors and very substantially the value of increasing wait_timeout and max_allowed_packet in my.cnf hasn't helped. Any thoughts? All help gratefully received of course...

hello ! Upload Your Files To External Server setting ?

Disable vBSEO and try again :)
I don't use vBSEO myself, so I don't know how it works with DownloadsII.

Check the chmod of the downloads folder and ec_tmp subfolder. They should be 777 (writable). The files inside of the downloads folder should have a 666 chmod normally.

There's no mass update method for this at the moment. Running those queries manually is an option.

We should place a plugin in the AdminCP so it runs those queries after a username update.
[high]* RS_Jelle notes it down :)[/high]

1. Check the "Use strict daily download limits." usergroup setting. Probably it's set to No and the amount of allowed MB's to download is a higher value (or unlimited, -1).
2. That's controlled by the "Can Avoid Moderation Queue" usergroup permission.

That's not possible at the moment. You can change it in downloads.php, but this doesn't affect old thumbnails then (and you can't recount them at the moment like vB attachment thumbnails).

That query isn't created by DownloadsII, but by vBulletin (on each page). It's a server configuration problem.

Installed and GREAT mod! I got a question...

I want to allow only a certain usergroup to use this... I call "Privleged Members" which is usergroupid=9. And I only want that usergroup to see the download link in the navbar... Is there way to put an if statement in there so only they see the link? Thanks...

Use this:
For multiple usergroups:

[EDIT]
Problem Solved, my host messed up NTFS file permissions so the mod could no longer read teh files using the ANON user

sorry!!!

i don't know if any one asked this, but i'm getting an error in the adminCP.
i get this:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ']', expecting ',' or ';' in www/forum/admincp/downloadadmin.php on line 287

when i got to Categories, Import, and Downloads. is there a fix for this?

today we find to errors .

cant upload any file and we dont have idea why .

also if you look in attach pic thats the error browser show now.

any idea what where to look .


things that change since last week we replaces apache with litespeed and turn off zend and update gars .



update:

I restore site to before I update gars and now is working again but still get error in attachment.

That's strange... I applied this multiple usergroups and I am the admin (usergroup=6) and I don't see it in the navbar when I go to my forum. Also, is there a way to shorten that vbphrase? My navbar is getting kinda packed with stuff... thanks so much!

hello ! Upload Your Files To External Server setting ?

Great Advice!! :up::up::up:

It allows to Increase the FTP Upload Limit!! ;)

Thank You Very Much!! :up:

:)

This looks great :)

I currently use LDM for my downloads, how do the two compare?

With DownloadsII can I do the following:
- Restrict certain download groups (I want everyone to see them but only group Z to be able to download.
- Does anybody use this with VBSEO
- Are there stats for user and admin (Hot, new, most in catagory,.,,,,,)
- Integrate into VB search

Thanks

would you please tell me what I should write in admin cp ?

I mean what shold I write as the directory link ?

please reply on my previous msg

i really need a feature to edit the links please

Can I get help with this please?

sorry but there's no feature to do this. If you've uploaded the file, you can't convert it into a linked file. You only option is to put the file somewhere else, then edit it's downloads page and put the new link in.

little typo:
should be

if it's a vbphrase, simply search for the phrase (Language and Phrases -> Search in Phrases), find it, change it. :)

sorry to be a bother, but can some one help? i keep getting an error in the downloadadmin.php file. it tells me there's a "
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' on line 287"

which is:
is there a way to fix this? i would be most greatfull for any help. thnx. i think the problem is value="
.$_POST['dir'].'" but i'm not sure how to fix it. anyone???

Thanks... that worked!

I've it's only happening when you try select the "Import" option, then you probably don't have the import directory set right. If it happens when you click on "Categories", then I suggest you download the product again and re-upload downloadadmin.php

thnx, i'll give it a try again.

Cool feature would be to have the script send the file to one of those online virus scanners of your choice to scan it. Best mod I have used by the way. Easy installation and very professional good work!

of course it's a very nice hack as I try before ..

I installed !!

But if a user upload a virus files ... there isn't a way for other users to report it ?

I mean it would be very useful if you put a report button in files download area.

thx

<font color="Silver">I've just noticed, having been using it for months now that there is no open to attach a file, more importantly an image.
