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).

The bmp function will be removed in a next release. Just convert the image to another format (and remove bmp as an image extension).

Nice catch
Marvellous - thanks! Problem solved!

hello jelle, thanks for this great mod. its a primary plugin i use and pretty much my entire site revolves around this.

my question is, would it be possible to add custom fields? how about a progress meter for large uploads?

thanks for your hard work.

Would it be possible to show the total number of downloads in a category AND all it's subcategories? For example, I have a category for each letter of the alphabet, and the only thing in each letter category is more categories, for manufacturer names (not actual downloads). The actual downloads are in the manufacturer sub-categories, but I would like to show the total downloads at the top level, rather than "0" like it shows now.

i.e. http://www.musclecarmanuals.com/downloads.php

Thanks for your work on this, it's great!

Though it's not the best solution indeed. To solve it completely, images and downloads need to be separated. So you can really protect the downloads directory from direct downloads.
Thanks for the hint!

I have disabled images and have added .htaccess "Deny from all" which stops anyone from accessing the dir or files unless through the downloader.

I followed the upgrade directions and I everything seemed to go somooth I tried to pull up the page and I got a generic database error page when I clicked on the link to the download section.

Them I uninstalled the old one. Renamed the download folder and tried a fresh intsall per the directions. I got the same error. Any suggestions on where to start again?

My browser(Firefox 3.5.x) cannot get filesize info. It says "Unknown time remaining". I wonder if it is Download II's problem or not.

Hi,

I am using the VB4 Publishing Suite, and the "Downloads" Tab on the Navigation is just right after the Forum Tab. May I know how can I shift/re-order the "Downloads" Tab, so that it will appear behind "Blogs" Tab?

Thank you.
