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.

Installed, working great, thanks for the AMAZING mod. This is 10 times better than what was available a few years ago.

And like a lot of users I had to increase my PHP upload size for it to work with files bigger than 7MB. Dreamhost(my host) by default limits it to 7MB, but you can use a wrapper script to edit your php.ini file and increase the max allowed size(I've heard on Dreamhost you can do 250MB or more).

www.gamescrim.com is the site if anyone wants to see how it looks on a gamer/darker style site.

saYRam, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

whats it?

Request for next version!! Please do add some kind of ratio system.. like on old bbs! no need to be kb based, but would we awesome having users to upload one file in a specific category before they can download one from the same category.
if the user want those stickers' scans he has to upload some scans himself..
thank you for this great mod and keep up the gooddaaa workaa! =)

I agree with ratio option also adding option based on (vBExperience) points will be great so user cant download file if his vBExperience points not meet the minimum points required by download category.
