Will this support download mirrors?

looking good kutgw

No, it wont support download mirrors.

Did you get Dean's permission to make an upgrade if anyone used his mod on 2.0? Or your just gonna stick with your brand spankin new one

i think hes making his own , and you can mod any of those scripts just not release them

right?

that is why, Im asking him if he got permission also, I want to use this mod more and have my downloads restored from 2.0.4. D2-Downloads

Will the Download Manager settings be with all the other settings in the ACP, or will it be part of the Components section?



I think that the Description should have its own box, like Terms and Conditions and Comments.

someone could probably make a converter for you , ill need one if i get the chance, ill write it...that is ... if i dont have everyone resubmit but who knows

This mod will have different permissions for ipb groups to other categories in download system?

Example:

different mask permissions, how in IPB:

'view category in category list',
'show files in category' ,
'upload files in this category',
'download files from this category'

It good feature, i can't find it in any IPB download system mods.

looks very nice, although would be much better if it supported mirror links...

kind regards,

Finally a non-overloaded downloads system. I will definatly be using this.

Looking good.

Nice!

I suggest admin can set a default logo image for categories, so that when users uploading files without the logo image, there will be a default one. (not a global one, coz there are different categories)


I suggest the download system can be set more than one ftp download link. For example, I have 4 ftp servers, they all have the same folder structure. So if I upload one file to all the 4 servers and when I download it from the dl system, there will be 4 download links. Don't know if it's possible.

Err, let me get done with the beta first, I am currently working on the ACP part.

Awesome DL System! Upmost Integration is all I can request. Good job!

any news on this?

Yeah,
I have an estimated release on October 3 to October 6.

I will only want to move to this if i will be able to trasnfer all the downloads from deans downloads section to yours. Is this possible?

I cant even use deans (IPB 2.1.1). Anything would be awesome right now. Good luck with this. Hope to see some progress.

Dean hasnt released it for 2.1.1.

Meaning you cant use it, like he said.

I cant wait, even if dean re-releases the download system for 2.1x I'll still want this one

Im going to contact Dean today.

I am very proud to announce that the Beta is finished and will be released upon fixing bugs.

You can see a demo of the Beta at IPSStuff Very Soon.

Obviously, because it hasnt been released...

I saw the IB Unique one. I just don't know if I would want to pay the price. I havent even looked closely at this one other than noticing a lot of you seem to think this will be good.

If you keep the downloads in a public folder and randomly generate a name for it, people can still download it.

If you use an md5 hash of a random string in a directoy which uses a document as a directory index it's very unlikely someone is going to do so. Storing it outside a publicly accessible directory is probably not possible on some webhosts. I'm sure you can deny access to the files via Apache with a .htaccess though.

Why would anybody pay when you can just use deans for free?

That's just like saying why would anybody pay for IPB when you can just use MyTopix for free.

This isnt costing anyone. Its free. I have designed this to store a users file in their mid directory so its like:

downloads/1/file.rar

Beta 1 is going to be installed on IPSStuff Today.

Yes, but if you give the link to someone...

Use a script to send the files through, like attachments in IPB.

Are you going to create a convertor so i can use the downloads from deans database on yours?

I highly doubt it, Dean's dl system is not his priority.

YES IT IS, I WILL! Im UNDER MOD QUEUE AND I CANT POST!

Wow, this looks great!


I am new to the world of Invision and was checking out some candidates for an 'intranet' project. What I was missing with the otherwise perfect Powerboard was a good download system. It doesn't seem to have that now, it seems.

I wonder, since it is not 'officially supported' (do I say this correct?), if there will be problems when it will?

Idea for new feature: have an option to have a download a 'common project'. For example, suppose I have a big story that an entire team wishes to work on and revise. I dont want people to work on it at the same time and then upload it. So it would be nice if I download it, it 'locks', until it is uploaded again, so no 2 people can work on it at the same time (or some other system).

Cheers and keep up the good work!

Your wrong, he said hes doing it before the final release and it would be a high priority because most people use deans and would want to convert their downloads.

But is it at the final stages, that is why I used the word priority.

Nice module. Maybe a bit late on the suggestion front but is there a search capability? Didn't notice one on the screen shots.

Backing up Michael C here, generally mods which are charged for receive much higher support levels. Just starting to roll on 2.1.1 mods and have three very simple ones available at the site in my sig.

Good luck with this one dude, will pass on the url to a few tech sites who would most definitely be line for using it.

I will be creating a search engine for it before the final in hopes.

Beta 1 is completed. Soon released.

u can add protect hotlink ?

It has a special storing method. When uploading the file, it uploads it to downloads/(member_id_of_uploader)/(file)

So you can easily keep track of files

I dont know whether I would risk a BETA or not. I wouldnt mind having a download system soon though. Just to have it. I dont have much activity lately and never have used a download system.

yay ! I am waiting !

Ok, I'm installing beta 1 some time today since my boards back online, if you guys saw above I think he's only allowing 2 beta testers and I'm number 2

is there a download link for the beta?

that a no?

Link please to beta
