What is ecDownloads?

It is a download database that integrates into vBulletin. It allows you to upload files, create folders, link to external files - and more. It is very flexible and has many options. Sorry, no screenshots. Maybe if someone is nice they will provide a link to the latest version of ecDownloads for everyone to view it.

Known Bugs:

- Missing phrase in add file (on nav bar)

gr8 hack! any way to import links from "FILES AND LINKS"

[Bhuwan]

Ron1n - great job . But there seems to be a b ug which makes the "hidden" links no longer hidden, unfortunately.

I am not sure what your talking about. You mean unapproved files appear to be approved? I havent heard of that error before, could you please tell me how it happened?

I was testing this out, and usernames with " ' " in them create errors when injecting the name into the database when they download a file.

*Fixed... left one file modification out*

Ron1n, above you say

- Images (next release.. finished but not included (skin issues))

What issues are you having with that?

I'd sure love to have thumbs/image previews of the downloads available.

First off, I must say this is such a great hack, I love it and so do my members. I primarily use this to host movies, lots of my users have been requesting a comment system, is this been thought of as a feature in an upcoming version? If so, that would be great!

Also when trying to use file names with " ' " in them you also get an sql error. Not sure if that's already been posted.

Is there a way this mod could have unlimited subforums or at least a second level of subbies? I need that second level... <_<

Alright, I have been using VBDownloads or quite some time. Unfortuneately I have a lot of files now. A lack of a search feature is really hurting me.

I just upgraded to the lastest version only to be disapointed in not having a fixed search page.

I havent had time to go through 40ish pages and see if anyone has a hacked a search page in... So, has anyone? And if so, can you link me to the post that shows me how to do it?

Also, whats the easiest way to change the max file size? It wont let me upload files larger than 3mb and I cant find it anywhere in the downloads section of my admincp.

Thanks guys.

[memobug]

I found I was unable to edit links. When I go to manage files there is no method to change the target URL. I had to go into phpMyAdmin and tweak it manually.

I don't know which version I have, but I have been using it about 2 months. Maybe the version could be added to the admin template for vbdownloads or perhaps the release dates could appear next to the version ids on the first post?

Regards,

Matt
