I am planning on going thru the packages and updating once I get my new hd for my main/work computer.

Ok.

I do know kguske has done a LOT to help me with the NSN Groups and the patch 3.1 the downloads part is the only thing holding me back now. trying to add it so not just anyone can download from certain areas of my newest site.

I am very interested in this thread as well.

I would like to install it on a Platinum Nuke installation 7.5 patched to 3.1
Looking for the same functionality to drive some additional site interaction from the users prior to downloading even though they ARE registered.

Does anyone have NSN GR Downloads running with NSN Groups Universal on a PHP Nuke Platinum installation Sentinel 2.4.1 ?

Before I start taking apart my Enhanced Downloads 1.7 on my site I would love to have some validation that they will work on 7.5 patched 3.1

Will follow this thread for any updates.... tnx.

zzb,
I actually have a working 7.5 3.1 patched environment running on my development environment (just finishing up testing before I post to production) with NSN_GR_Downloads_750_103pl1. The only part that I had to redo some was the changes the patch Team made to:

Code:




if (defined('FORUM_ADMIN')) {


    @require_once("../../../config.php");


    @require_once("../../../db/db.php");


} elseif (defined('INSIDE_MOD')) {


    @require_once("../../config.php");


    @require_once("../../db/db.php");


} else {


    @require_once("config.php");


    @require_once("db/db.php");


}

In the 3.1 patch, they changed this a bit to look more like the following:

Code:




if(defined('FORUM_ADMIN')) {


  define('INCLUDE_PATH', '../../../');


} elseif(defined('INSIDE_MOD')) {


  define('INCLUDE_PATH', '../../');


} else {


  define('INCLUDE_PATH', './');


}





@require_once(INCLUDE_PATH."config.php");


@require_once(INCLUDE_PATH."db/db.php");


@require_once(INCLUDE_PATH."includes/sql_layer.php");


@require_once(INCLUDE_PATH."includes/ipban.php");

The NS Groups Download mainfile.php updates have you placing the following code at the bottom of the script:

Code:




if (defined('FORUM_ADMIN')) {


    include_once("../../../includes/nsngr_func.php");


} elseif (defined('INSIDE_MOD')) {


    include_once("../../includes/nsngr_func.php");


} else {


    include_once("includes/nsngr_func.php");


}

Instead of this, I just added it to the section of 3.1 mainfile code as follows:

Code:




if(defined('FORUM_ADMIN')) {


  define('INCLUDE_PATH', '../../../');


} elseif(defined('INSIDE_MOD')) {


  define('INCLUDE_PATH', '../../');


} else {


  define('INCLUDE_PATH', './');


}





@require_once(INCLUDE_PATH."config.php");


@require_once(INCLUDE_PATH."db/db.php");


@require_once(INCLUDE_PATH."includes/sql_layer.php");


@require_once(INCLUDE_PATH."includes/ipban.php");


@require_once(INCLUDE_PATH."includes/nsngr_func.php");

Really, all of the other code was almost untouched by 3.1 around the NS Groups code file edits (as most of the edits are additional lines of code).

Hope this helps... I have the completed files:

mainfile.php
admin/blocks.php
admin/messages.php
admin/modules.php
blocks/block-Modules.php
blocks/block-User_Info.php
modules/Your_Account/index.php

for 7.5 with 3.1 patch level and NS Group Downloads installed (this discussion above has been around NS Groups which is needed for the NS Group Downloads), however, I also have NukeSentinel 2.4.2 and some hacks also in some of these scripts. I can provide them if you really need them, but I would try going through the NS Groups install and then if that works fine, the NS Group Downloads should be a piece-of-cake to install.

Thanks Montego! This is very helpful. I follow what you are suggesting. This is helpful.
Since Platinum Nuke uses Enhanced Downloads... I will load up GR Downloads and make the mods on a test system and see what happens...

Thanks....

NSN GR Downloads requires NSN Groups to be installed first. Does this come with Platinum or have you already installed this? My comments above were related to NSN Groups. ONce that is installed properly, NSN GR Downloads is very easy to install and get working.

NSN Groups is part of the Platinum Package. The Downloads module is Enhanced Downloads 1.7 What I will try to do is back up and then replace Enhanced Downloads with NSN GR Downloads. I have that pack from NukeScripts.

I will back up SQL tables and structure as well. I should be able to make the changes without too many issues that I could not patch myself with the info you provided me above.

Thanks....

BobMarion,

I see that your Forums have been disabled. I am having too many problems getting NSN Groups 1.7.1 working on 7.6 with 3.1! I was able to get all but block and module edits in the admin area. When I click on "save", it throws a file not found error but I can clearly see the write http://xxxxxxxx/admin.php name in the browser address bar and the error message does not appear to be PHP produced. However, when I backed all the DB changes and files out, these functions work.

Any thoughts on where I should look? I've been all over the code and just can't see why/how it can be throwing this kind of seemingly Apache error.... Also, are you still planning on releasing a 3.1 version of NSN Groups?

TIA,
montego
