[F] Download Section. - Posted By dog199200 (dog199200) on 4th Mar 08 at 9:31pm
I have a download system almost setup and everything as you can see here but i can't finish it, the categories are linked to thread in which people can post there own download for people to download, but i need to be able to track how many posts have been posted in each board so i can keep the amount of downloads up to date. And if it is possible can i get a code so that a person can upload stuff and when they click onto the thread it instantly begins to download what every that person uploads, and don't worry about the security issues with this, i will check every file and make sure no viruses have been uploaded before i release them into the download section, hell even if you cant get me a code i'd be happy to take ideas on how i can go about setting this up {Smile}

Wait for the API for the number of downloads thing.

As for the other thing ... Hmmm... I don't think it could be done... {Unsure}

ok and i guess i'll have to see what ross thinks about it, i know the odds are low and all...hmm do you think it would be possible to mod the file attachment code to run off my own host so i can increase the amount of data that can be uploaded in an attachment?

Unfortunately not no, sorry. How big are the attachments?

well umm, well idk 175 megs...some where around there, thats why i was wondering if i could use my own host so it wouldn't take up so much space, because for all the stuff i could upload it would be a total of at least 18 gbs in anime eps...

Just making sure, are these legal versions of the anime episodes? Just wondering, as the vForums ToS states that no sites may contain, or links to sites containing, warez or other illegal content. {Unsure} {Wink}

they are legal, they can right off of the disks themselves, i left them as is and just uploaded them, that isn't illegal right? I know ir is if i use my own copyright and/or sell the videos.

I believe you need proper licensing to display copyrighted material to the public, but that's something you'll have to check with the owner of the anime.

ah ok will do, but there is other stuff other then just that, like audio and wallpaper and pictures, stuff like that that i'll need to be able to set something up for.

As long as you've got everything abiding by the ToS, then do whatever needs to be done. {Smile}

Just don't want to see you lose all your hard work, is all. {Wink}
