1. Will there be options to allow comment approval on downloads?
2. Will there be a dead link report button?
3. Will there be comment reporting?

1. No, not at this moment though. But comments will be improved (quick reply editor, better permissions, ability to edit them).
2 + 3. There will be definitely a general report button for each file. So you can use it for the comments too. I'm not sure if I'm going to add another button per comment.

I pruned it manually, it was taking up some space. Any reason why it wouldn't clear when the hourly cron job runs?

As you may want to keep your statistics. That's the point about statistics, otherwise they would be useless
vBulletin itself is also logging registration, new thread, post, ... stats.

i want the top contributor and all that to show on forumhome like in the options..
but it doesnt..
can you give me the manual edits plz?

That's not possible at this moment. But there's a vBadvanced CMPS add-on and you can integrate the CMPS on your forumhome.

Some forumhome integration might be added in the future. As 5.1.0 already integrates in the navbar (button, search), postbit and user profile (stats, list).

I view now that, my forum, in downloads, not appears the credits, any credit, and I don't know if this, is because I installed a translation. How can made for appears the credits?

In other "problem", I view in other forums that, when acces to Downloads and acces to category for view downloads, all downloads appears with an icon/image, with this:

And the url that call to this icon/image is:

http://www.mydomain.com/forum/images/buttons/collapse_tcat_collapsed.gif

But in my forum, not appears this icon/image, and the url that call a "some image" is:

http://www.mydomain.com/forum/images/buttons/avatar.jpg

I don't know because my url for this icon/image is different and I don't know how solved this.

Thanks and a regards.

As I said, the avatar.jpg image is nowhere in the DownloadsII code, unless you edited it yourself. Check the ecdownloads_download_pic phrase which contains the image name.

My members have asked for a couple of things regarding this mod... So, I have a couple small questions and also a couple of small suggestions for the next version if at all possible.
Question 1:
How would I get ALL downloads to sort by Alpha?

Request 1:
I am not sure if it has been requested or not, but for the next version my members would like to be able to have alphabetical navigation. Perhaps instead of page numbers be able to jump to jump to files that begin with the letter A for instance. A, B, C, D, E, F, etc...

Request 2:
I would also like to see a field that would be on the submission screen that can be added by the uploader tha can point to a "Support" type thread. On my site, we require users to create an announcement/discussion thread before submitting an upload. I would like to be able for people when downloading a file to see (and be able to click) the link to the "support" thread on the forums.

Request 3:
An option to create a new thread in a specific forum when a new download is added would be nice as well. I know that there is an add on for this, but official support would be nice.

Again, Thank you very much for this mod!

Q1. Try setting "Sort by Weight" to no.
v6 has serious improved sorting (category based, each category can have different sorting, ascending/descending on all possible fields).
R1. This is not going to make it - I think -. That's more something for a glossary mod (or the vB memberslist).
R2. The add-on can add automatically such a discuss link to the description field of a file.
R3. The add-on is "official" as its coded by CyberRanger, coauthor of DownloadsII.

i have two diff. webhost - i put files on my 2nd host..
it will be nice if this mod can import/list files from 2nd host with permission..

pls give a thought about it

The storage and download part is the last unfinished thing of v6. I was basing it on the attachment system, but with vB 4 coming soon, I stopped working on it. vB 4 will have the new asset manager, so I'm going to look how integration with that goes.

I also hope they are going to fix the lightbox integration
