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).

Actually went ahead and compared it for ya. And its identical to a default VB headinclude. Doesn't seem like that's the problem...

Thesdale · #**883** 08-06-2010, 09:37 AM

Yeah the only template I've got is the vb4 default template unmodified.

The site is http://www.weplayciv.com/vbtest

I've also noticed just now it's not including the footer template either.

Okay I've fixed it. I had thought the vb3 AME was disabled but it wasn't. Disabling the old AME fixes the problem.

Strange, but it worked fine before installing downloads2. Seems the two have a conflict.

Awesome glad ya found the fix

I was gonna say, was clicking around and didn't see a problem...

Thesdale · #**886** 08-06-2010, 10:31 AM

Thanks for having a look! Appreciated. If there was a karma system here, I'd add some for you.

Jelle,

Is there any way you could please, to be able to add in custom fields?
I really need a field for "version", that would become part of the browsing listings.

Also, the "date" field.... is that showing the date it was created or updated?
I modify a lot of downloads frequently, and I need the date to show when I update them, otherwise the actual creation date will throw off all my users.

Right now I am forced to put the version and update date within the download description, which is becoming such a pain

Thanks for the great addon

Drakah · #**888** 08-08-2010, 02:04 PM

Well I tried putting in a "dateedited" and a "version" field, but I failed very miserably, sadly.
Hope you can help!

Thanks!

I've installed this mod and it generally seems to work OK. However, my users all get the following error whenever they upload a file. The upload always seems to work OK but they ALWAYS get this message. I don't get the message when I upload.

All of the permission settings are correct as far as I can tell.

This is most likely because the files are set to be moderated until approved. It's a permission setting within the usergroup.
