I migrated my data to
Downloads II by running the following MySQL query against my vBulletin database:
Code:
INSERT INTO dl2_files(title,description,author,_author,uploader,uploaderid,url,totaldownloads,dateadded,size)
SELECT linkname, linkdesc, linkusername, linkusername, linkuserid, linkurl, linkhits, linkdate, linksize
FROM local_linkslink WHERE ORDER BY linkid ASC
UPDATE `dl2_files` SET `category` = '1' WHERE `category` = '0';
UPDATE `dl2_files` SET `url` = REPLACE(`url`, "/user_uploads", "");
This will assign all files to the default category which DownloadsII created following a fresh installation.
Then in AdminCP -> DownloadsII -> Settings, change the 'Downloads Folder Path' setting to:
Finally go to /downloads.php?do=manfiles and click "Update Counters".
Now all you have to do is create your categories and edit your files to assign them appropriately. Definitely a time-saver vs. adding everything manually to a new script.
Hope that helps!
