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.

jelle or pointer i was wondering when i go to add a file in the part where you add a description i guess the text area is a period in there everytime now. i havent changed nothing would you know what would cause this cause all that is in there before i go to add anything is this . if i just erase it then its fine but i hate erasing it everytime. what template is that when you click add and it goes to that page?

when i look at the source before i even write anything this is how it is showing up.

Code:

<textarea name="message" id="vB_Editor_001_textarea" rows="10" cols="60" style="width:518px; height:250px" tabindex="1" dir="ltr">.</textarea>

where is this so i can edit it?

Yes, it works fine (without any edits), it's also mentioned in the release thread

@DementedMindz: that's strange, I never had such an issue. We will look into it soon.

Alright. Thanks for your reply!

Fantastic just what i needed, thank you very much for your time...

Would it be possible to implement a download limit so that you could set the amount of times a member could download in any set period (24 hours or a week or something). This i feel would complement the timed downloads but add an important feature to stop people just downloading constantly after waiting for whatever time limit is set, If they tried they would be told they have downloaded enough for a while and to give it a rest.

This feature has already been coded and tested. Will be released soon in ver 5.0.4.

If I understand you right, you want to place downloads.php in a folder named files then rename downloads.php to index.php. You may be able to achieve that by some rewrite rule in htaccess or by finding all occurrances of downloads.php and changing them to index.php. Either way, I'm afraid that's well beyond the scope of support I can provide.

I'm at a loss for what to tell you. Here's the same code from one of the sites I help run.

HTML Code:

<textarea name="message" id="vB_Editor_001_textarea" rows="10" cols="60" style="width:540px; height:250px" tabindex="1" dir="ltr"></textarea>

There's no dot. The code is the basic vbulletin code to use the wysiwyg editor.

To make sure I understand, when you click "Add" to create a new entry, the dot is already in the description box?
