If u have mp3 players in profiles or want to embed mp3 uploaded files in posts you need to have the direct links to the files.
In order to achieve this edit the downloads_my template
Replace all with
Code:
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="tborder" width="{$stylevar['tablewidth']}" align="center">
<tr>
<td>
<table cellpadding="{$stylevar['cellpadding']}" cellspacing="{$stylevar[cellspacing]}" border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="thead" width="17%">{$vbphrase['ecdownloads_name']}</td>
<td class="thead" width="17%">Date and Info</td>
<td class="thead" width="16%">Status and Rating</td>
<td class="thead" width="100%">Direct Link</td>
</tr>
$dmyfilebits
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
$navigation
and replace downloads_my_bit template with
Code:
<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"><a href="./downloads.php?do=file&id={$file['id']}">{$file['name']}</a><br/>{$file['author']}</td>
<td class="$bgclass">{$vbphrase['date']} : $date<br />{$vbphrase['ecdownloads_downloads']}: {$file['downloads']}</td>
<td class="$bgclass">{$vbphrase['ecdownloads_rating']}: $grade<br />{$vbphrase['ecdownloads_status']} : $status</td>
<td class="$bgclass"><input class="bginput" type="text" value="http://www.yoursite.com/forum/downloads/{$file['url']}" size="90%" onclick="this.focus();this.select()" /></td>
</tr>
The direct link is only shown for the users file when going to My Files and the result is this (when u click it gets highlighted and u can copy paste)
