vb.org Archive - Major Additions

I upgraded my forum to v3.64 and the downloads to v5.04 last night. All other things in the downloads database work fine except the search page. Searching doesn't show any results.

See Post #843

What is the exact path of the file you're trying to import? You've to put thw right path in order to import a file.

Thanks Icy. That did the trick.

CyberRanger: In the next version, can you make it so the files in My Files and Member Files show the file category? My members often request this. Thanks.

Two questions, I've searched this thread and found nothing, so either my search skills are lacking, or it has not been ask, hopefully it is the latter :)

First, Can we store files in a folder not accessible via the web? For instance, my boards path on the server is something like:

/home/username/public_html/boardfolder

Can I add files that I have uploaded to the server via ftp that are stored in a directory such as:

/home/username/downloads2/

And then have them listed as a valid downloadable file?

This leads to the second question. Assuming I ftp upload the file, then link to it later, is there a size limitation I should be aware of for adding files?

That is currently not supported. On the list to be included in a future release.

Once you ftp the files to your downloads2 folder, you should then us the Downloads->Import feature in the admincp.

No size limitation with in DownloadsII when you link to a file. However, if the file is stored on your local server, I'd recommend using the import feature instead of linking to it. The "link" feature was really intended for files that are stored on a different server.

this is where my zip file is located (the file which I would like to import): /www/forums/downloads/stat.zip

so the path will be : (/home36b/sub001/sc28591-FTHE/www/forums/downloads/stat.zip)

The warning I get : Warning: opendir(/home36b/sub001/sc28591-FTHE/www/forums/downloads/stat.zip) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: Not a directory in /admincp/downloadadmin.php on line 290

I dont understand what could be wrong

the path (that you put in the field on the import page) should be /home36b/sub001/sc28591-FTHE/www/forums/downloads/ without the file name at the end. Once you click "Import Files" you will get a listing of files in that folder.
