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
have to do a full database restore as this dropped some tables that where used for my attachments hack.
There is no reason for you to do a full database restore because my hack only uses 5 tables and modifies 2 others. Maybe in the future you should find out what your installing before you install it?

I did those admincp stop messages at the last minute, sorry I must have screwed that one up. Heres the fix: search in downloadadmin.php for 'vbdown_settings have been edited successfully' or whatever the EXACT error message you get is, and change it to vbdown_settings_edited. Then, in your admincp, add a 'control panel stop message' named 'vbdown_settings_edited', and have the content be 'Settings edited successfully.'
You need a trailing slash / at the end of downloads. In addition, you dont need to have anything besides ./downloads/ in BOTH fields, because your downloads directory is in the /forums/ directory.

not calling your hack at all m8 - it installed fine on test board but when took it to live site it messed up my attachments on the board as they where using a table called download from another hack.
Also i do check everythin i install - hence why always install to blank board first.
OK.. i do have a problem actually, it keeps saying i can't upload a file type but it says it must be so and so.. and its one of those types..
That is because .mpeg is a four letter extension, and I didnt know those were common. In this case, just remove the dot and it will work. I will add an actual support for this next time.
EDIT: I fixed this for you in version 2.0b

Never had this problem, but I will check it out today.
EDIT: I tested this on my board and it worked fine. I think you need to go to downloads->setttings-> and then set 'Order' to `order`
Hopefully that works. If it doesn't, message me again and take some screenshots of before and after. Thanks

The files link to other server is great, but I'm wonder what is "semi-antileech" means, would anyone please clarify this for me?
Would I be able to see the files location by looking up at the "Temp" folder in IE?
Yes, as you would with basically any download script. This just prevents people from knowing the file location of uploaded files unless they have a full brain. What I did on my test server is password protect the directory that the files are in, so that even if they did know the file location, they would be unable to download. If you have any suggestions for antileech systems please tell me and link me to a tutorial/example.
