One last question must a user be registered on the forum to access the download or can this be turned on and off depending on catagory etc?

EDIT

Plus also can you we add an image next to the download link? For instance we want members to be able to download maps (for games) and would be nice to be able to upload a still shot of the map.

There are two sorts of permissions protection used with this hack
- Who can see/access a download: This is controlled using the standard VBulletin forums permissions system. You choose a forum that is visible to the usergroups you want to be able to see each link/category of links. You then associate the link/category with that forum. By default, this system is turned off, so everyone can see every entry.

- Who can create/edit/etc links. This is also controlled by usergroups, but these are set directly within the hacks admin page.

- Yes you can put images (using standard bbcodes) in any of the fields.

- Being able to comment on entries has been suggested by others. It's just not something that I have got round to coding yet. I'll make no promises.

If you download the hack, in the zip file, there's a full set of instriuctions which should answer your questions.
