I've lost track of the number of times I've answered this question. Once again, if you want a Downloads link in the navbar see https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....postcount=2284 :)

I am sorry for let you repeating..
many thanx for the patience.. :)

why not just edit the thread and get a FAQ up?

it works, many thanx

well, it's in the Readme-Install.txt file. The instructions are also in the second post (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....22&postcount=2 ) with a link to that post in the first post. I guess I need Jelle to make it BIG and BOLD in the first post. hehe :)

Hello i got everything set up but when i try to access the download page it gives me this error

I am Root Admin. I dont understand why this would come up.


..//*edit* lol sorry didnt read the usergroup permission part :D Fixed now

Where's the setting to extend the limit on the length of the category name?

Could you explain how you accomplished this? I'm decent in php, but not an expert. If I had some examples to go off of, I could go from there.

EDIT: Never mind, I figured it out.

Just an FYI to anyone that was wondering, I edited the downloads_main template:

and the downloads_main_catbit
You'll have to experiment with the width though

I followed your guide but when trying to upload a 3mb file, I get "The upload failed! Upload error."

Any ideas?

Resolved - thanks.

sorry for my english but i'm italian!!

when i copy all download dir with images and files, i have a problem... because same thumbs images have permission 600, and another 644 but the down files have 777!!!

when i copy this dir, the images with 600 CHMOD doesn't copy why??
if i set this with 777 i receive the error "permission denied"

thanks

there is some way to allow the downloads to all users (not members only) in a category exclusively? :confused:

I think I fuxed up my uninstall, as now when I attempt to delete ANY thread from my forum I get...

HELP? :mad:

I hate to bump my question, but I could really use an answer to this:

Any idea? :(

Is there any way to allow registered users to create sub-categories?

Has anyone had a problem getting DownloadsII to work with any skins?

So yeah, I'm still having the problem of a messed up database due to a bad uninstall I believe. Like I said, if I attempt to delete ANY thread on my forum (as well moving individual posts between threads) I get the following error...

Is there anyway to completely remove this entire modification, including specific SQL to remove/drop ANY tables related to it to fix my database. My forums currently in turmoil because of this :(

I'm pretty much BEGGING for help on this :(

Use SSH instead of FTP - if possible - to do such actions.

Just use the "Exclude Categories" and "Can Download Files" usergroup permissions for guests.

That's not a real DownloadsII problem. You probably still have the "DownloadsII Create New Thread Add-On" installed, which doesn't work without DownloadsII itself.

No, except from giving them AdminCP access (which isn't a good idea).

It should work with all styles normally, as it's fully templated. What's the problem?

Thanks for reply,
"Exclude Categories" is not a solution,
d?ont like for seo, and I like guest view but no download the other categories,
then if guest like a downloads, he registers in the forum.

Best Regards!! :)

yes, with ssh are ok...but why che plugin add the thumb file in auto with permission 600???

I'm sorry, but that's not possible at the moment.

That's because there's no chmod for it at the moment and your server has a pretty strict umask (auto permissions given by the server).

While my main focus is on version 6, I thought it was time to get out a small update on the 5.0 branch. It includes two minor bug fixes and removes one (unnecessary) query on all DownloadsII pages.

DownloadsII 5.0.7 Changelog

CyberRanger

• Added extra 666 chmod for uploading images

Jelle

• Fixed an uncached template when using the vBulletin basic editor
• Removed one (unnecessary) query on all DownloadsII pages and tweaked count queries

Thanks for the update Jelle. :)

Thanks for the update. :up:

Nothing as of yet. I'm going to pick up a skin for my forums (looong awaited) and I wanted to check if there would be any reason why DowloadsII and the skin wouldn't jive together.

Hi,

I can't seem to figure out how to move a file to a different category once it's been uploaded...

Am I just blind or something? Does this not exist?

Still waiting for the vBCredits integration

one day someone will make that happen

Just a suggestion, it will be great if there's an error in download. The system will allow the user to download another file immediately rather than the timewait to be over before they can download again?

I just upgraded , and uninstalled the old xml and installed the new xml , now I dont have any of my downloads or Cats showing and I have lost all my user permissions, what can I do to fix this ? thanks.

I think you will need to set it all over again. you should have overighten the old xml

Hi,

When will version 6.0 be released?

btw your product rocks!

I was kinda of thinking originally it was going to be released around the 3.7 vbulletin release, but now im not so sure.

I am just wondering % wise how close is it to being finished?

it;s works fine

Just edit the file and change the category in the category dropdown menu.

For upgrading you need to use the overwrite function from the product system, as stated in the instructions. Uninstalling removes everything.

If you've got a database backup, you can restore the original dl_ tables.

There's no ETA at the moment.

Version 6 will be for vB 3.7 only indeed (no vB 3.5/3.6 support). But ... 10% of all the time for 90% of the work and 90% of all the time for 10% of the work. Finishing it is needing more time than I imagined.

What are the major items being improved for 6.0?

Hi there,

I have one question.

I'm using the latest DownloadII Version and all seems to work fine.
But if I would upload am File that has an Filesize of 6,8Mb I got this error "The upload failed! Upload error."
By smaller Filez there seems no problem and works fine.

I have read a lot of posts here, but can't find an answer for my Problem :(

Anyone an idea ?

Maybe you read the wrong posts, because it's definately talked about a lot, but no problem.:)

Fair chance is that your host has the the maximum size of uploads to 2mb which is standard in php.
You can add a line to your .htaccess file or when this does not work, ask your hosting provider to set the php maximum upload size to a higher amount.

Hi,

thanx 4 your message !

I have thought thats the prob there.

With htaccess it will not work, so i have contact the provider to change this value.

It is posible that I read the false post ;)

Thx a lot

I know that it was just released today, but I was curious if anyone knew of complications between DownloadsII and vb RC4? I was getting ready to upgrade my forums, but thought twice once I saw there were a ton of template edits.
