My Downloads v1.2 - A Download Manager for VBulletin
 

Well well.. have I been busy in such a short time.. hehehe.. I listened and i changed... here's a newer version, more integrated it is..

What does this script do ?

This script indexes your download directory of your website and put this information
into records on your database. Now you can track who is downloading your files and you get
information how popular each file is.

version 1.2
- Use of templates in vbulletin
- The download database is integrated into the forumdatabase
- Use of vbulletin stylesheets
- Auto index of subdirectories ( 1 layer ) into download-categories.
- Auto clean up of log database when file is removed from the database
(The Cleanup button has been removed)
- IP address logging added
- Gifs are made transparent
- Non admin auto update option
- Some other small tunes...

version 1.1
not released

version 1.0
Features:
- Auto index of the download directory
- Easy add descriptions to files
- Easy database cleanup of deleted files
- Restrict the usergroups who may download
- Tracking of downloads.
- Display download history of a file by admin group.
- Database cleanup by admingroup

Nice to know:
- Easy to install for not-dummies
- Its just one php script

The package:
- download.php - this is the actual script ( you can rename this )
- mydownloads.sql - database strucure
- mydownloads.template.txt - Vbulletin template
- ./gifs/ - gifs
- install.txt - this file

Nice idea, but I just tried it, and it doesn't work.
Cannot detect files in download folder.

Btw, might be better off using templates and phrases, instead of hardcoding everything.
Also, might want to create the 2 tables in the existing vb one, easier for a lot of people :)

Are u seening the UPDATE and CLEAN buttons ? if not.. probably you are not member of the admin group.
did u check $dir='./download/'; ?

About the templates.. you are right. Actually this is my first vbulletin script. I have to find out about those phrases. Think about modifying it in the future.

Nope, I cannot see the buttons. I am admin.

Download dir is correctly set I should think,
I tried full path too, likewise no go :(

If you dont see the buttons then somehow you are not validated to see them. Line 14 of the script defines group 6 to be admin. Check if your admin group is 6 otherwise change this number in the script.

I will ginny pig this out. Let you know about errors.

ok so is this a download manager? like you upload files to it and they can download? lol

or is this from another program?

Before I try this out, can you index files from another server. Say if you have a media host.. Could you link the links off of that..?

It would be nicer if i can add a location of a file, and that would be downloadable :)

This looks really promising
