DownloadsII · **Released**: 07-01-2006

There's a vB4 version of this mod available: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=231427

DownloadsII

DownloadsII is a download database that integrates into vBulletin. It allows you to upload files, add images to them, create categories, link to external files - and more. It is very flexible and has many options.

Because a lot of people keep on asking this:
This mod works with any version of vBulletin 3.7.x and 3.8.x!

It's also coded 100% XHTML 1.0 Transitional valid, just like vBulletin itself.

Instructions & Support

You can find an installation manual in the zip package (Readme-Install.txt).

We try to answer most questions asked in this thread. Please don't send any pm's if we don't ask for them, as we said we try to give a high level of support in this thread. Don't forget to click the install link, so you will receive important update notifications.

Screenshots & Live demo

At the bottom of this post, you can find 6 screenshots of the front-end and back-end (AdminCP part) of the DownloadsII software. You can see the newest version in action at the Minatica.be Downloads (Dutch).

Changelog (version 5.1.2)

Jelle

Backported CSRF security fix from the vB 4 release
Added permission check for Update Counters
Fixed PHP warnings when running PHP 5.3
Removed the imagecreatefrombmp() function. It doesn't exist.
Added permission check for rating submissions

You can find all the changelogs of this and older versions here.

Help!!! I can't upload large files??

This is probably the second most asked question. Have a look at this post for the solution.

It doesn't work with GARS?!

If you also use the latest version of GARS, you will get the "Fields marked in RED must be filled in!" error when uploading a file. I provided a fix here on the GARS forums.

Addons

We are offering 3 addons for this mod at the moment (have a look at the bottom of this post for them). DownloadsII contains 5 hook locations for the vBulletin plugin systems, so you can add extra functionality without file edits.

Do you want to help expanding DownloadsII (if you are a coder)? Check out this post!

Notes

ecDownloads Buddy is NOT compatible with this version. If you are using the Buddy, you should UNINSTALL it before installing DownloadsII ver 5.x.x. The Buddy's features are now integrated into DownloadsII.
DownloadsII is a direct derivative work from Ron1n's ecDownloads.

Name: one_piece
Chapter: 01

it will combine those 2 text fields together (seperated by "_" or anything I want) to make it become "one_piece_01"

Also, I've tried the to put in my forums dir .htaccess with:
php_value upload_max_filesize 25M
php_value post_max_size 25M

but it doesn't work, it gave me the error "500" for the whole site, anywhere i go i got that error. If I delete it the problem is gone, any suggestion?

For the first thing, I don't think we are going to create such a feature as I think you would be on of the only persons using "chapters". We try to integrate the most requested features in the next version.

An error 500 message is a .htaccess error. I would suggest you contacting your host to ask them why it doesn't work. Maybe they've blocked it, but that's pretty strange for a normal host ...

It happened after updating to 5.0.6 version

Find in your downloads.php

PHP Code:


			
header("Content-Type: $ctype; name="".basename($filename)."";");

Replade with

PHP Code:


			
header("Content-Type: $ctype");

This fixed the corruption of some zip files (also occuring only in IE), but my fear becomes true: it causes some new issues

Please try downloading with IE6 and IE7 (before you do the file edit). I would like to know which versions it affects etc (and try some different files: not only zip files for example).

There's also IE7, the newest version. It's an additional XP Windows Update and the default browser of Vista. Just do the file edit I gave to you in the above post and it will be fixed.

Can you pm me the url of your forum and a test account, so I can download files. I want to compare some things with other sites.

The fix doesn't works.
Nobody can downloads files from IE

May be this will help you?
This the screen of the error.

Hmm, that's very strange. Are you sure you did the change correct, saved it and reuploaded downloads.php?

Another try, but I'm pretty sure this can't affect IE only or so:
Find in /includes/class_downloads.php:

PHP Code:


			
        if ((strrpos($this->url, '/')+1) != strlen($this->url))

        {

            $this->url .= '/';

        }

Replace with:

PHP Code:


			
        if (strrpos($this->url,"/") != strlen($this->url))

        {

            $this->url .= "/";

        }

Impossible to open this internet url. URL is not found. Please, try later

PS i can downloads any file, uploaded not by DownloadsII, but inserrted to it as a link.
So the problem isn't in the server

Nate Dawg · #**1889** 11-03-2007, 05:50 AM

Can you have static-download URLs?

It's not a DownloadsII feature, but it's possible if you are using vBSEO (there's a topic about it at the vBSEO forums).

Ricsca · #**1891** 11-03-2007, 01:07 PM

When upload the file, I do not find not any manner to load the thumbnails...

Why?

Thanks
