Major Additions - DownloadsII

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.

It's also coded 100% XHTML 1.0 Transitional valid, just like vBulletin itself.



Instructions & Support

Requires vBulletin 4.0.4 or higher. Not fully compatible with lower vB 4 versions.
It works fine with both the new editor in vB 4.1.4 or higher and the old one in previous vB versions.

Read the instructions in the next two posts before installing/upgrading this mod!

You can find an installation/upgrade manual in the zip package (Readme.txt).

I try to answer most questions asked in this thread. Please don't send any pm's if I don't ask for them. 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 some screenshots of the front-end and back-end (AdminCP part) of the DownloadsII software.

You can find a live demo on my own site: Minatica.be Downloads (Dutch).
Though keep in mind that we are running a restyled and modified version of it.

Changelog (version 6.0.9)

Jelle

• Added support for vB 4.1.8 bit processing with 'each' construct (backwards compatible)
• Fixed comma listing for vB 4.1.8 (using "old" method)

Older changelogs are included in the zip package.

Help!!! I can't upload large files??

This is probably the most asked question. It's mostly caused by some default PHP settings: check "PHP Max Post Size" and "PHP Maximum Upload Size" at your AdminCP home.

Then have a look at this post for the solution to up these values.
Also have a look at this post at vB.com (but ignore the MySQL part as DownloadsII is only using the file system).

I upload this file and works fine.

Well I'd prefer an update that doesn't require the depreciated vbulletin files, but if other users don't report errors with the old file I guess I'll add it back, just hope it doesn't screw anything up

Playing the waiting game for now

DownloadsII 6.0.8 adds support for the new editor in vB 4.1.4, though it still works with the old editor too. Additionally, the sidebar CSS has been updated. It now uses vBulletin's own sidebar.css instead of replicating it (and running behind when they update it).

Update: 6.0.8 was updated to fix the display of the rating popup in RTL languages.

DownloadsII 6.0.8 Changelog

Jelle

• Added support for vB 4.1.4 WYSIWYG class (backwards compatible)
• Updated sidebar CSS
• Fixed rating popup in RTL languages

Thanks for the upgrade

I upgrade Downloads in my site and I test the problem with WYSIWYG, and now works fine

Thanks and regards!

RS_Jelle, thansk for prompt update. One question: is it somewhere in your plans to add tags? This would be a big "step-up".
