OMG, still have lots of PMs between me and him. The best guy I ever met with online, offered me help with customization at no charge. I can't believe I just realized it now that he passed away.

I migrated my data to Downloads II by running the following MySQL query against my vBulletin database:

INSERT INTO dl2_files(title,description,author,_author,uploader,uploaderid,url,totaldownloads,dateadded,size)
SELECT linkname, linkdesc, linkusername, linkusername, linkuserid, linkurl, linkhits, linkdate, linksize
FROM local_linkslink WHERE ORDER BY linkid ASC

UPDATE `dl2_files` SET `category` = '1' WHERE `category` = '0';

UPDATE `dl2_files` SET `url` = REPLACE(`url`, "/user_uploads", "");

This will assign all files to the default category which DownloadsII created following a fresh installation.

Then in AdminCP -> DownloadsII -> Settings, change the 'Downloads Folder Path' setting to:

./user_uploads

Finally go to /downloads.php?do=manfiles and click "Update Counters".

Now all you have to do is create your categories and edit your files to assign them appropriately. Definitely a time-saver vs. adding everything manually to a new script.

Hope that helps!
