Thanks for all your support, I hope you enjoy this. It will have 1-2 minor bugs, but nothing major. Have fun, and make suggestions.

IMPORTANT NOTICES

- Upgraders should remove the CRON that they originally set up
- Look at the fix list to the right -> see if it has been updated since you downloaded

Linked downloads would be great. also being able to have different file extensions. I have a lot of video and audio files I would like to put up without having to zip all of them

If one more person asks for different file extensions or linked downloads they will not be included in the next release. I have said time after time that I will add them soon.

Um? You make no sense.

First of all, I posted this to help some people out... not to get suggestions. I have no obligation to you or anyone else.

Second of all, I was happy to have constructive suggestions the first few times, but you are the 5-6th person to post th exact same thing. If you dont care enough to read just ONE of the pages on this thread, then dont post at all.

[White Knight]

Im just going to drop from this conversation. Good Hack. Hope it works for someone else out there.

Do you think you can add Title to the mod? So you dont need to use File Name for the title.

[Ron1n]

That is already the case.

File Name = the files title....

I read threw this entire thread and found my problem only stated once, but never found a fix for it stated afterwords, if there was one i appoligize for asking twice but here's my dilema:

When I upload files, i get the message "File Successfully Added", but the header puts out the error codes:

"WARNING: move_upload_file(home/public_html/downloads/GFX asdf basdft [].rar): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /includes/dl_add.php on line 54"

and

"WARNING: move_upload_file(): Unable to move '/tmp/phpdy7S0I' to 'home/public_html/downloads/GFX asdf basdft [].rar' in /includes/dl_add.php on line 54"

I have my upload URL as: /home/public_html/downloads/
and my download URL as: /downloads/

the actual presence of the download is there, but when I click download to download it, it brings me to a 404 error page: http://www.mydomain.com/radio/downlo...&id=3&act=down

i downloaded release D and then updated to release E and still get these errors, all help would be appreciated.


Edit: Also one error I found, and this might be due to the error I stated above but, on the main page where it says 'X' files in 'X' categories, after I deleted all the files i supposedly uploaded, that setting did not reset, it still says I have 8 files in 1 categoy when i deleted them all.

I cant think of anything right now... if those are the true paths then everything should be working. You can try chmodding the download folder so that it is readable and writable by the public and by the server. As long as those are the actual paths everything should work.

Are there any spaces in the filename, directory name, or file author? If you upload to 'GFX file author.rar' but it gets saved in the database as 'GFX file author.rar' you would get the download error... but that upload error doesnt make sense.

Just to clarify... when you upload the file, does it upload every file correctly but give you the same error message?

Could you try uploading to your forum url /downloads/ and see if that works (i.e. forum/downloads/). In that case, you don't need to use the actual paths, but can use relative paths such as './downloads/'. You can always use relative paths, but I didnt want to confuse people.

[Durtay]

I've tried using alternate path names, i tried moving the download folder into my forum folder, i tried chmodding all files to 777 and that didn't work. And I get those error messages after i perform the upload action, but the file does not actually upload to my server as I checked the download folder via my FTP client and no files are in the folder. I even tried uninstalling the entire hack and reinstalling, nothing has worked as of yet.
