Download Log (for Attachments) by BOP5 (VB 4.x)
 

Brought To You By BirdOPrey5 / Qapla.com

This is the FREE version of my Download Log mod. Check out the GOLD VERSION for more features.

This mod is compatible with VB 3.8.x and VB 4.x.x.

Current Version 1.1.3
1.0 - Initial Release
1.1.1 - Fixed bug
1.1.3 - Critical Bug Fix

Live Demo: Attachment Download Log - JUOT - Joe's Ultimate Off Topic
Notes: Demo is on VB 3.8 forum. For demo I have enabled guest viewing of the logs, this is an option that can be turned off.

The purpose of this mod is to allow you to track what attachments get downloaded- All attachment downloads can be logged although by default the mod is configured not to track image attachments. Thumbnails are always ignored.

On each attachment download the following are logged:

• Username of Downloader
• IP Address of Downloader
• Filename of Attachment
• File size of Attachment
• Post # Attachment resides in
• Uploader of Attachment
• Date/Time of Download

Note- Attachments made outside of posts are still logged but post # is displayed as "N/A."

The FREE Version has the following features:

• Complete Attachment Download Log
• Sort Log by Username of Downloader, Username of Uploader, and Date/Time downloaded
• Automatically add link to Download Log to "Quick Links" only for users with permission to view the log
• Give permission to view the log based on Usergroups (primary or secondary)
• Optional scheduled task to delete old entries from the log
• Fully phrased for easy translation
• Prevent logging of duplicate downloads

The GOLD Version has the following additional features:

• Sort Log by Filename, File Size, Post #
• Clicking on attachment "Views" in a post will link user to the Log to see complete list of who downloaded that file
• Specify custom date and time formatting
• Give permission to view Download Log to specific users(by user id)

Hi, I installed it but where appears the link to reach the log file? thx

It should be under Quick Links -> Attachment Download Log.

I will upload a screenshot to the first post.

I see nothing, something is wrong in my settings?

What VB version are you running? If 4.2.0 do you see it listed in Navigation Manager?

My bad- I uploaded version 1a, will fix the problem. :o

hehehe, now it's ok, work fine! thx

for the same downloaded file, the member name appears 16 times! is this normal?

At the same time? I occasionally see the same name appear twice, back to back- it is when a user gets impatient and clicks on the file multiple times before the download starts, but 16 is kind of extreme.

Dealing with duplicate clicks is something I was going to deal with in the next version.
