Question Is there a way to...

[zaito]

Hi there,

I'm looking to add this mod also on my community site (i'm trying for now the lite version), and i'm wondering if there's any way to disable/enable the notification that shows up on vBShout.

And i'm wondering too, if it's a way to put a new file just with an external link, not as mirror, as main link (i'm not a fan of get the stuff on the server actually).

Thanks a lot.

It is possible to add just links to a new upload and skip adding files to your server. If you do not want it to be called mirrors, simply rename the dbtech_downloads_mirrors phrase

There is not a vBulletin Option for the vBShout notification. I suppose I could add one for the next version!

Hope this helps! Let me know if you need anymore assistance.

Hi!

How i do that? (add an upload only with external link), if i send the entry, just say that all fields need to be filled.

For now, is there something i can disable for the notifications? (and thanks to see to add the option in future release).

Thanks again.

Do you have a category selected, title filled in and description box? If so then you should be able to post.

If you open up /dbtech/downloads/modules/uploadModule.php you should be able to find the following on line 469:

$shoutid = $shout->save();

change that to

// $shoutid = $shout->save();

That should disable shout notifications for you

Oki, I did an now seems to work, no notifications, and no uploaded files .

I'm not quite sure what you mean here. Do you mean you get that popup when you do not have a file in the upload section?

I click on upload, and the system return that message, i go back to upload page, and the click again, and work.

By the way, when i edit an entry, just get the upload and reset buttons, if i click on upload, just get another entry.

Hey,

Sorry for the delay The error that is telling you that you are missing required values if sent from the following code:

if ((!$title || !$desc || !$catid) && $flashupload == false) {
	Downloads::throw_error('dbtech_downloads_required_values_missing');
}

That code means that if there is no title, description of category set then uploading will fail and you will get said error. (If flash uploading is true then these checks have already been made). What this leads me to believe is that you either missed one of these values by accident or your browser is not sending the data properly. I am lead to believe that it is the latter. Could you let me know what browser you are using and could you send me a link to your site. (In future, could you file questions like this as a bug, that way you are asked these kinds of questions when making the thread! ).

As for the other problem, I have confirmed that this is broken and will get a fix out for that very soon!

The change category error is now fixed. Please re-download, re-upload and re-import all files!

Firefox is the browser i'm using, and the url is http://ff14sp.com/vbdownloads.php

The change category error is now fixed. Please re-download, re-upload and re-import all files!

I did, but i don't understand what error are you saying. Maybe i need to uninstall?

Thank you.

I'll take a look at that when I get home. The error I was talking about was the edit file duplicating bug you mentioned.

The upload button is the normal button to use. I'll change that now so it will show as edit in future builds. I'll check out the duplication bug once again, I had thought the changes I had made would fix them.

Hey,

Could you send me FTP info and Admin access to your site? It will help me debug/fix these bugs! Thanks
