What is ecDownloads?

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

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

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

Is this normal? Or did I totally screw up LOL?

Thanks again.

Oh right. You have to empty your dl_stats thing. LOL. Sorry about that.

Thank you.

Yes.

They are the same thing, just with different files. So you should be able to change from one to the other with no problem at all.

Thank you.

Are you using microsoft bimbows?

I dunno, I've tried everything.....I made all the fixes but still get a blank page when trying to access the download settings in the admincp.

[Drago912]

I can go into the categories no problem but just a blank page when accessing the settings..... :disappointed:

You didnt do all of the fixes because there is a fix for this problem. Just reopen the fix list and search for Settings, then you should see the fix. When your done please click install.

[Drago912]

I have done everything in the fix list.....the only thing that struck me was you say :

Find in downloadadmin.php:

	// ###### ELITECODERS DOWNLOAD HACK ######
	construct_nav_option("Settings", 'downloadadmin.php?do=settings', '<br />');
	construct_nav_option("Categories", 'downloadadmin.php?do=category', '<br />');
	construct_nav_group("Downloads", '<hr />');
	// ###### ELITECODERS DOWNLOAD HACK ######


Replace with:


	// ###### ELITECODERS DOWNLOAD HACK ######
	construct_nav_option("Settings", 'options.php?do=options&dogroup=ecdownloads', '<br />');
	construct_nav_option("Categories", 'downloadadmin.php?do=category', '<br />');
	construct_nav_group("Downloads", '<hr />');
	// ###### ELITECODERS DOWNLOAD HACK ######

This isnt in the admindownload.php, its in the index.php.......all changes have been made and still same result.

[Drago912]

I got it so I could access the settings by putting the downloadadmin.php from version2.0 in the admincp directory.....all is good now, just gotta get the uploads and downloads directory working........ :squareeyed:

Your query in the bottom of the changes file does not seem to work..

DELETE FROM <PREFIX>dl_stats WHERE 1

Error
SQL-query:

DELETE FROM < PREFIX > dl_stats WHERE 1
MySQL said:

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '<PREFIX>dl_stats WHERE 1' at line 1

[bspiller82]

In the user permisison in the CP it doesn't show the information I attached a screenshot. Also the downloads aren't showing anything Examples can be found here http://www.247xtreme.com/forums/downloads.php. Notice how it shows that there is files in the catogory? When you click it it doesn't show them.

Also, I had suggested that the abiblity to add to ones reputation would be a great feature and you said you'd add it but I'm not seein' it. Is this somethin' I could put together by using code from the postbit_legacy template or would it be too complex?

BTW, I'll have screenshots for everyone as soon as the last problem is fixed .
