[MOD] Download limit v1.0.1

[miralin]

when u browse your site while being logged in as admin, do u see sessionid=j3h4k23h4l2 in the address bar and all links on the page?
if so, then u must also include that sessionid to the url for dl_limit_install.php
like this: http://example.com/4images/dl_limit_install.php?sessionid=3k4jh23k4h32k4h2

Yes I see session id in the addressbar.
I tried to include it in the url but it hasn't helped
I still get redirected to the index page...

and when you get redirected, do u remain logged in as admin? if not - that' is the problem.

Hello,

the mod works fine. ... thanks again  !

I was just wondering,
if a user makes two accounts, and activates them trough email, he can download 2X the limit set by administrator ?

 

[V@no]

yes

[kief24]

on my site, the limiter doesn't count the files downloaded from the lightbox.
Is this normal ?

[V@no]

maybe missed step 2.2 or 2.7 ?

[kief24]

reinstalled it, and now it works.

thx !

but i think i found a "backdoor" in the system

let's say the downloadlimit is 30 pics in 24 hrs.
I download 25 pics
and i put 20 pics in my lightbox

I am able to download the 20 pics in the lightbox.

(After that, i can't download anymore.)

But so i still can download 45 pics. ( or any number if i download them from the lightbox before the limit is reached )

am i right ?

[V@no]

Mmmm...not supposed to happend. If mod installed properly, it would only add 5 images in the zip when you download your lightbox (in this example)

Logged in as administrator it seems that i can download more than limited
normal registered users can't.
So for me the problem is solved !
thx !

yes, that is normal, IMO admins should not have any restrictions on their sites

I have a question.

Insted of 24 hour limit would it be possible to set a total download number limit. After they have downloaded the alloted number of images they need to subscribe to a different service. Is there an easy adjustment for this sort of method? not time based, just number based?

[V@no]

mmmmm...add 99999999 minutes?

[sigma]

lol. i guess i should of installed it before askin the question.

[sigma]

hmm.

So heres what I want to do.

- Registered users get 50 free downloads.
- After they reach 50 they are asked to Subscribe to another service which gives them unlimited Downloads for 3 months.

1. How can I remove the 'time' value and just display the number of downloads still available.
2. How can I setup an unlimited download option for a certain user group.

Is this too much for this mod? I can live without #2 but #1 would be a nice to have.
