OK well I've had this mod running on the forum since my forum started (not long ago) but credit where it's due this is an EXCELLENT mod.  I don't use half the features it is capable of, but as a downloads management system, it is easy to use / manage from both an admin and users point of view.

I don't claim to have tried all the options out there, but in my view its better than the two 'built in' downloads setups of several portals I've tried.  That's just my opinion, nothing objective I can point to.  And perhaps it's to be expected given it's a dedicated downloads mod.

Anyway this comes highly recommended from me !!!!

Well done SMFhacks !

Installed & operates perfectly on SMF 2.1 Beta 3+ (current Github)! 

Honestly guys, between SAVE & Download System, my forum is pretty much 100% in SMF2.1...  Well done!

I do have one error in my error log though.  This error showed up once immediately post installation:
    8: Undefined index: downloads_menu
    http://localhost/vgf21/index.php?action=admin;area=packages;sa=install2;package=1498409867.zip;pid=0
    File: {yada yada yada}/VGF21/Sources/DownloadsHooks.php  Line: 111

   
I haven't noticed any impact on operation, seems to work perfectly. 

All of our downloads, ratings, etc., everything from 2.0 is available.  SEAMLESS...

Does it happen all the time or just one time?

Only the once.   

Looking at that URL, I think it was logged during the install process.

Minor nit, but you get error log entries if a user presses the ratings button without selecting a rating. 

They get a friendly warning.  No need to log an entry in the error log as well. 

Error message details:
8: Undefined index: rating

What is the update process please?  Is it just upload and install the new one, or do I uninstall./delete the old one first?
(It'd be cool if this info was included in the description of the mod, for easy reference)

Thanks

Either way works. If it is a major update I state what to do.

So don't uninstall, install new version, and there should be no errors.
Assuming that works, do I then 'uninstall' the old one, or just 'delete' it from the package manager ?(but not files of course)  Thanks

Hi,

I installed the download system but when I want to  add a download it says: "You need to create a category first before you upload a download." Where do I create that category? I have this on smf 2.0.11 and 2.0.15 at different servers.

TIA

vbgamer45

Click on downloads in the menu then there should be link on that page to add a category.

Hmm, I removed manually the memberlist from the menu and I added "index.php?action=downloads" in the menu. Could you provide me the link for the category?
