[MC] Downloads Manager

[MC] Downloads Manager [Paid] 1.2.3

No permission to buy ($55.00)
Overview FAQ Updates (11) History Discussion
There is not a countdown option currently.

Rate limits are set for members and guests. There is a usergroup bypass permission for which groups can bypass the rate limit. I do not currently have a per user group rate limit option.

A basic statistics widget is included.

Currently, admins cannot see who downloaded a file, but that is coming in a future update.

Matt C. updated [MC] Downloads Manager with a new update entry:

1.1.0 Released

A new update has been released that adds new features, expanded API/webhooks, and many improvements and bug fixes.

New Features
  • Per-download criteria gates. Authors can now attach a criteria gate to an individual download, in addition to any gate set on its category. The two are evaluated together, with author and team member bypass. Admins get a per-gate "allow on downloads" toggle and can restrict which user groups may apply a gate.

Sorry about that! I reuploaded 1.1.0 on my support site, please download and rebuild.

I had a small suggestion: Why not put the banner at the top of the index page (like in the image below)?

That's not a bad idea, adding cover images to the grid layout. I may have to add an option to require banners.

I don't know if it's a bug, but when creating a download criterion, it displays a flashing message: "Your changes have been saved."

Here's how to reproduce it:

  • Create a criteria gate for a visitor.
  • Select a criteria.
  • Save.

When a guest tries to download, they will get a flashing message.
It's not a serious issue, but it's a little confusing.

I'm able to reproduce this on first try, can you create a ticket on my support site?

Isn't this XF resource manager with a different layout?
Click to expand...
I find it better than a resource manager. Only the appearance is similar.
The features, options, moderation, and even the download administration are truly superior.

In my usage, this addon covers 100% of my needs, whereas XFRM is really limited to fast resources.
I see XFRM as an add-on for quickly downloading files or creating quick tutorials. As for Download Manager, I think it should be considered a tool whose primary purpose is downloading (even if it's not mandatory). Indeed, if downloading isn't the goal, XFRM is ideal.

On the surface, it looks like it. It actually has 3 index layouts, one of which is basically RM's layout.

But it has a many different integrated features that I've wanted for a long time. I've also included many features from this suggestion thread by Alpha1.

Thread 'XF Advanced Downloads Manager'

The Xenforo Resource Manager is not intended as a downloads manager. This is something that comes up in XFRM support discussions. XFRM has mandatory functions for versioning, updates, support URL, which are not applicable to a normal use case of Downloads manager. XFRM also lacks many important functions that you need to host a downloads section for a community. The XFRM is too basic for this purpose. My suggestion is for a new far more advanced addon.

This is why I suggest an Advanced Downloads Management System. Something similar as DownloadsII or LDM or DBT Downloads for vbulletin...

I urge you to look through the feature, screenshots and Documentation and see just how much you can do with this.

If you would like to play around with it, I can give you temporary access it via a private dev site with admin access.

Matt C. updated [MC] Downloads Manager with a new update entry:

1.2.2 Released

We have released a new version focused on performance and stability along with a few changes.

Important change that will affect every add-on:

All of our add-ons are now using Core Library in order to maintain shared helpers and utilities across add-ons for easier maintenance and to keep add-ons cleaner. Core Library also covers our branding for all add-ons in one switch without having to turn it off in every add-on.

This update will require Core Library 1.0.1.

1.2.3 Released

We have released a new maintenance update focusing on stability. This update requires Core Library 1.0.3.

Changes
  • The admin audit log now uses the shared audit log from Core Library, so it looks and works the same as the audit logs in other add-ons.
  • Filters live in a Filters menu, and each active filter shows as a chip you can remove on its own.
  • Filter by actor using their username. Entries by deleted users can still be filtered.
  • Filter by content type, content...
