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.

Yes, it's the real deal. I need to make a few more tweaks before adding it to the general release but it is good to go for your situation.

Wespointer can you help me with one issue?

All my old downloads will show this The author is uknown.
Unknown (uploaded by Broken->Arrow)

When I choose edit it shows the author.

Let me know, thanks.

I'm puzzled why you would get this. I'll keep looking and let you know if I find something.

Looking at the old template it calls the author like this

PHP Code:


			
{$file['author']}

On the new template

PHP Code:


			
{$_author}

If this helps any.

Attached is ecDownloadsII ver 5. I went up to version 5 so people wouldn't get confused with version 4 being the last version of ecDownloads.

Please PM me with any problems or to let me know it works good. Please DO NOT discuss ver 5 here (yet!)

What it does:

Adds everything from ecDownloads Buddy back into ecDownloadsII.
Plugs a security hole that could be used for a DOS attack.
Completely re-writes the method for downloading files.
Cleans up the "Downloads" section of the admincp (thanks EvilHawk!)
Permits safe_mode to be on

No old templates are changed although a new one is added. If you are using ecDownloads Buddy, you MUST uninstall the Buddy before installing this.

CyberRanger · #**116** 07-15-2006, 01:36 PM

EvilHawk helped me with some phrases that went screwy and some edits that I did but then included the wrong @$%@%# file.

Here's a new ver 5 file for testing.

Robbed · #**117** 07-16-2006, 05:36 AM

Wespointer.

I changed this code

PHP Code:


			
if ($file['_author'] == '')

        $_author = $vbphrase['ecdownloads_unknown'];

    else

        $_author = $file['_author'];

to

PHP Code:


			
if ($file['_author'] == '')

        $_author = $file['author'];

    else

        $_author = $file['_author'];

Instead of getting uknown on my old downloads it's shows the authors name but it's not linked. Just the new downloads are.

Is it ok to change this code, Let me know.

Hay i was using Ron1s 4.1 version.
I uploaded your downloads.php as you said by overwriting the existing. (Thats only thing i did)
Then i add the ecdownloads buddy thats all.

When i click on Update Counters it says

Quote:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ec_demo_mode() in /home/.bocephus/lk1/mydomain.com/forum/downloads.php on line 1090

How to fix this?

NOTE: for this to work safe_mode_gid must be set to yes (on).

i can change chmod only to 3-letter code.

I tried it with chmod777 and the new downloads.php file. the error message:

Warnung: copy(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 1194 is not allowed to access /home/www/web224/html/forum/downloads/ec_w2t owned by uid 30 in /downloads.php (Zeile 505)

Warnung: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/www/web224/html/forum/includes/class_core.php:2984) in /downloads.php (Zeile 506)

thank you for your help!

ecDownloads is really all I need for my forum.
