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).

Add-ons

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

Can you help me?

That's strange. The phrasegroup should be there if you were running DownloadsII 5.x when doing the upgrade.

Did you uninstall the DownloadsII v5 product? That's the only thing I can think of at the moment. If you did that, you lost all DownloadsII data (on your test site), so you can't upgrade.

What v5 version did you run?

Thanks your answers.
Yes, i delete it.
I use the newest of your mod.
Now, I make a new test site!

That's always welcome
I can add your translation to the package if you want. Keeping it up to date if there are any language changes would be much appreciated.

Btw: is the RTL support working well? Please report any RTL bugs.

I installed this mod and with the first file I uploaded, it said "The file(s) uploaded were too large to process."

Is there a way for me to set the limit on how big a file can be? The file was 818 MB.

Thx - Excellent work!

Have a look at the first post ("Help!!! I can't upload large files??"). There are two links with solutions for this problem

I did what the first link said, created an .htaccess file and suddenly I couldn't access my forums. I delete the file and I could access them again...
