DownloadsII · **Released**: 12-27-2009

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).

Add-ons

There are currently no official add-ons. Unofficial add-ons are listed below.

You'll find all permissions under Admin CP>Usergroups>DownloadsII.

I should've looked there, *slaps forehead*

Ok I just checked in Admin CP > Usergroups and there is no section for DownloadsII under the Usergroup tab

abdulbasitsaeed · #**265** 01-17-2010, 03:13 AM

Admin CP > Usergroups > Usergroup Manager > Select the Usergroup you want to edit > DownloadsII Permissions.

RS_Jelle,

Is it possible to add some space (maybe a <br>) after the description ends, so that there is some gap between the description and the buttons given beneath. See screenshot below.

Other than that, in the previous version, when we would want to assign a new uploader, after typing a few characters, the User IDs which started with those characters would appear as a list below. Somehow, it isn't working anymore. I am using Firefox, if it helps. Thanks!

Thank you, I found the settings.

Is it possible in the next release also to change the colour of the uploader's name, as indicated below, so that it becomes visible that it is a hyperlink?

I have update vb3.8.4 to 4.0.1 with Download II 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 (Add-on was dissable). So Downloads II 5.1.1 still stays in the Add-on view on AdminCP and the data (files, righst, categories) ist not present in the 6.0.1.

What is the problem?

Goto Admin Permission and set for you "yes" ^^

Reload admincp and now show top of right menu

I'm having a problem...
I have these extensions set....then work fine.
.eps .ai .cdr .swf .pdf .dxf .svg .aps .tif (I have the Usage of this extension set as 'file')

I have gif and jpg set as image.
But these will not show up as extensions that can be used
.."You may only upload or link to the following extensions: .eps .ai .cdr .swf .pdf .dxf .svg .aps .tif "..

I have the extensions set as 'enabled'
I also have on the control panel "Allow users with permission to view and post images." set to "yes".

Also, admin usergroup is pretty much all "Yes"

What am I missing to get the jpg and the gif images added to the list of can upload ext.

Thank you in advance

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
