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.

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.

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.
Great Mod. But I'm having a Issue. After Installing, I tried to go to Download>Categories I get a White Screen? Same with Import and Downloads. I can get to settings, but that is as far as I can get? Can you guys Help? Please?
In some back pages, I posted this problem, I continue with the same problem and I don't view if is solved (sorrys if has posted the solution of the issue):
When the users go to download some download, when click in Download button, this generate a url with hash, for example:
The user have a message of security token, and can't acces to this download.
But if this url I cut the final part: &act=down&actionhash generatin only this url:
I've been using this mod very happily for several years until today when I tried import some files after upgrading from vbulletin 3.8.7 to 4.1.3 recently and received the following empty import page...
Any thoughts on what might be wrong? Everything else seems to be working fine?!
I have a constant and annoying error with this mod and I quite don't know how to solve it.
the apache error log shows:
Code:
... PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in ../ajax.php(69) : eval()'d code on line 102, referer: ../search.php?searchid=****
This shows up in different locations as search, showthread and other.
The line 102 goes down to line 1 of the ajax_start plugin of this mod here and ist shows a simple
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
Like dancing to a good rhythm, I can travel with it to differnet lines by inserting and deleting comments, but I simply don't know, what the real problem is and why I seem to be the only one in the world having this problem.
It would be kind of anyone pushing me in the right direction, because I don't want see these damn error logs any longer!
