Hello, my dears,
First of all thank you for all your support! You really appreciate that!
I have a small question about the Download Status Module or suggestions for improvement.
If a group is not allowed to download, this should also be displayed in the module. e.g. You do not have permission to download.
But instead of this message it says you can download unlimited. Although the group has no authorization. I switch the function in the module:
Show notice when
'No Restrictions'
off the module is hidden completely. But what is stupid if you understand me after the design what I built. There are 4 modules as a news banner above the body that are placed next to each other. So if only one module is missing, the whole thing looks stupid again.
So I have to keep this notification enabled
Show notice when
'No Restrictions'
But that's not true because the group isn't supposed to download anything.
It would be useful if the module is revised if possible with an additional function to display that you may not or cannot download it.
Or install the function in user group settings under restrictions that a slider is inserted there, e.g. block downloads or something. And that this is also output in the module.
E.g. your user group is not authorized to download.
Wouldn't it be a great idea to add this function to the module?
And thank you for the existence of JDownloads, a very powerful extension! The best extension or downloads!
I wish everyone a nice new week!
Best regards
Jens
By the way:
I have provisionally helped myself by using a language override for the text: You can download any number of files.
added the following:
You can download as many files as you want.
Or
Your user group does not have permission to download.
As I said, it would be really useful to add the function to the status module.
Thanks
Hi,
you are right, it seems that we should expand the module a bit.
Maybe i'll have some time to do it soon. But you can also remind me if I should forget.. ;)
Hi Arno,
Danke Arno, ich denke auch das es eine Gute Idee wäre bzw. sinnvoll ist
Mach dir aber bitte kein Stress, nur dann, wenn du kannst.
Ich wünsche dir was
Grüße aus der Pfalz

Hi
Which Module do you mean - there is no module with the name 'Download Status'
Do you perhaps mean the 'jDownloads Stats for Administrators' ?
Or maybe the 'jDownloads Administrator Monitoring' module that checks the Download area?
Colin
I think he means the 'mod_jdownloads_view_limits'.
Arno
Yes that makes sense.
Checked with no limits and module correctly said there were no limits. Set Limits and all reported OK. Also when limit exceeded.
