Major Additions - DownloadsII

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.

Notes

• DownloadsII is a direct derivative work from Ron1n's ecDownloads.

Addons

• DownloadsII ver 5.0 vbAdvanced Add-On

tuaguild had that issue aswell, u gotta revert the downloads templates on admincp

[RedGTiVR6]

I'm having the same issue with the security token....only, there's no way for me to revert....the downloads template hasn't been changed at all...it's still black (not red like a modified one)

this appears to be related to file size....no?

it looks like the security token is added toll templates that have value="$session[sessionhash]"....

[RedGTiVR6]

Also, I'm noticing that the smilie box doesn't move on the downloads templates even if you have the smiliebox below editor mod installed (like it is here on vBulletin).

Any chance of incorporating that?

If you have that mod installed, it lets you show more smilies without breaking the way the page looks....but if you go into the downloads section, the same number of smilies show up only to the side of the editor box....which causes the page to look all funny...

Any ideas how to fix it?

I have uploaded tons of files on my site using this...however since I have updated to vbulletin 3.7 this is my first upload... when I try uploading a file on there now, it will do the normal upload routine but when it is done it goes back to the blank form like I havent uploaded anything so I can upload another file...the file I uploaded...never appears anywhere??
