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 cant upload images for files. It just refreshes after uploading and the files dont show.

[sadiq6210]

About the DWNLOADS profile tab in member profile, I want to make it appear all time even the user didn't upload any file.

Which (if condition) should I remove ?

@TheInsaneManiac

To upload images as FILES you must set the extension to be File and Image in the AdminCP -> DownloadsII -> Extensions - If it is set to Image only it will only let you attach them to the file as an attachment.

If you are just trying to attach an Image to the file and it isn't working this could be that you do not have the required extension set up in the same place, but that's where to look.

Hope this helps

is thier away to upload the files i need via FTP to this mod?

[TeknoSounds]

you can upload via FTP, then use the importer script to import all the files from a directory...but normal users wouldn't have access to this.
