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.

Changes in 3.2

- Too many to list... its a whole new world

Known Bugs:

- Missing phrase in add file (on nav bar)
- No file protection, add it here if you want: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=174
- Missing phrases (ecdownloads_can_edit_all and ecdownloads_can_view_disabled) in admincp

Install

Make the file edits in ecDownloads.txt
Upload the contents of 'upload' to your forum directory
Run the downloadinstaller.php file in the admincp (install/rebuild styles and phrases)
Create a directory called 'downloads' (or whatever you put in your settings) and make it writeable and executable

This mod is too buggy to be reliable. Updates and bugfixes should be incorporated immediately in the download package. Instructions should be much clearer and easy to follow..

There are other solutions to this (non vbulletin) that can be implemented, at least thats what I will do. So... *uninstalled*

Im not trying to hack down on the time and effort gone into this by the creator, just sharing my opinion to rest of the vbulletin users. Maybe it can get better, the idea is good.

Fixed this myself. In admincp/usergroup.php, around line 205, there was a mis-spelled phrase.

Change:

PHP Code:

    print_yes_no_row($vbphrase['ecdownloads_can_eidt_all_files'], 'usergroup[caneditallfiles]', $ug_bitfield['caneditallfiles']); 


To:

PHP Code:

    print_yes_no_row($vbphrase['ecdownloads_can_edit_all_files'], 'usergroup[caneditallfiles]', $ug_bitfield['caneditallfiles']); 


That will fix the text for "Can Edit All Files".

The last line is supposed to read "Can View Disabled Download Section." The vbphrase it is looking for is "ecdownloads_can_view_disabled". However, the vbphrase (under type Permissions) is actually "ecdownloads_view_disabled". You need to either modify the existing vbphrase or add a new phrase named "ecdownloads_can_view_disabled".

:ermm: I don't know then. My install is working fairly good. I don't consider it that buggy for the value that is added.

BTW - the author is focusing on the 3.5 version ... so give him a break!

Make sure you do the fixes from that are at the top of the page: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...chmentid=33210. That will fix the blank settings link. Check your settings then try the user groups again.
