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.

One more suggestion.

Could you look at the feasability of adding a way of doing the download perms an a per cat basis, so we could have some catagorys for normal users and some for premium members depending on usergroup or user perms.

thanks

Have you edited the template that produces that page? (I think it's ecdowloads_file_addit but I'm not positive)

DementedMindz · #**645** 10-23-2006, 08:32 PM

no i even made sure in dreamweaver that it wasnt in there. Im having a hard time figuring out where its coming from.

If you look at the product announcement post, that's the #1 item I'd like to enhance. The other is multiple files per entry.

I've been loving this for a while now, and it is good to see that the new features in 5.0.4 will be pretty much exactly what im looking for

So I cant wait.

However do you have an estimated release date? or need any beta testers?

Also I was considering some paid custom work if it is even possible, to implement this into a cms that I have So all its features would be implemented into the cms. If you are interested then please pm me.

After reading the instructions and installing everything seemed fine until the import. I am geting this error:

Code:

Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /admincp/downloadadmin.php (Zeile 331)

When I am prompted to enter the absolute path I can read the suggestion:

Code:

/pages/0g/06/d0002307/home/htdocs/forums/admincp/.

which I alter a bit to point to my real path like

Code:

/pages/0g/06/d0002307/home/htdocs/forums/test/.

I have created a directory directly unter /forums called "test" and I placed "putty.exe" in that folder.

My "downloads" directory is chmodded to "777" and I have added "exe" to the list of extensions.

It does not give me an error when I enter the path and click "Import Files" but than I am lost. In the next screen under "All files" I see "(not filled out)" and all the other files are blank. Am I supposed to see the files sitting in the folder?

If I enter "putty.exe" into "File Name", check my category, activate "Import" and click "Import Files" I get the above error message.

Can anyone point me to the right direction?

Thanks!

Try taking out the "." after test/

Here's a beta of version 5.0.4. I believe it to be stable but a little more testing would be good.
