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
Can anyone point me in the direction of where the navigation menues are created to actually use this - i.e. upload files etc I have a custom Navbar so nothing appears.
Go into which ever usergroups you want access to the downloads and set permissions, then go to blah blah/forums/downloads.php.
You will see the options show up.

It would be good if users that can manage files were able to download non-approved files.
Now you have to approve it, then download, then disprove until you checked it .
Yet another problem: if you use bbcode in the file description, and then edit the description again, it is in HTML. If you save it again, the HTML isnt interpreted.

I never thought an admin would download it before approving... the system wasnt really built with that in mind. It was more of a "check to make sure its appropriate and in the right category" thing, but I guess I could enable that. It would be very easy.

Works for me, make sure you set it up properly (select `order` from the settings) and it will work swimmingly.

I'm not interested... i think its fine the way it is. I really dont want any more in the admincp than is already there.
I upgraded to thew new version v2.0c and then today I also upgraded to version 2.0f - but im having same issue.
on trying to upload the file - it does not show me the categories... so i cannot choose in which category should the new file go .. and therefore the upload fails.
I made a test category and even that new TEST category did not show up.

The category options are actually saved to a database, but they are used by the templates. This could be one of two things:
1) you arent using the right templates
2) your uploaded files are not the right ones
