Download File Manager Support Thread

I've just submitted the file to the contributions area and it's awaiting approval.

This module is designed to work with Zen Cart 1.5.x (although it is compatible with earlier versions, just needs admin/boxes). It's purpose is to allow admin to upload downloadable files to the /download directory directly from admin, there's no need to use FTP.

Here's a screenshot:


The plugin can be downloaded from the Plugins section.

A very handy mod, thank you what a great idea!
My only question (so far!), and i know you hint at it in the README...

this plugin expects you to use /download directory to store your files. If you're using a different directory, you'll need to update the plugin

could you give a few pointers as to which files/edits need to be changed/made please?

Sure. Changes are required in:
dfm_filelist.php - line 33, 63, 135, 136, 137, 138
upload.php - line 15

Basically, I just hard coded the path to the download directory. There are nicer solutions, but I built this real fast for a client to help them upload their files and then just packed it for everyone else...

That's great, I'll give it a go later

Like any good Zenner I'm trying this in Localhost (WAMP)...

after installation I constantly have the message box

Download File Manager v1.0 install completed!

at the top of my admin area.
Then upon attempting a PDF upload I receive an error log

 Warning: filesize() [function.filesize]: stat failed for /my.pdf in C:\wamp\www\test\MYADMIN\dfm_filelist.php on line 129

 Warning: filesize() [function.filesize]: stat failed for /my.pdf in C:\wamp\www\test\MYADMIN\dfm_filelist.php on line 14 

The manager displays the green tick/check symbol but the file does not make it into the 'download' folder (tried with default Download folder location too).

I just tested on a clean 1.5.1 and no problems...

The message box on top shouldn't show more than once, but you can delete the admin/includes/auto_loaders/config.dfm.php

Error logs - can't tell for sure, but I'd say it indicates a problem with your path. Since it's a local wamp install, I'm assuming you have all the required permissions...
