[MOD] Download limit v1.0.1

[Fastian]

First of all, Sorry for replying that late.

@Fastian:
For testing purpose, in download.php below <?php insert this:

Code: [Select]

echo "<pre>";
print_r($_SERVER);
exit;

Yes I do see [HTTP_REFERER] => some address With some other info. And that address is the one from where i click the download button.

@Fastian:
If you do, then in global.php above

Code: [Select]

if (defined("SCRIPT_URL") && SCRIPT_URL != "") { insert:

Code: [Select]

echo $url;
Then on every page you go, it should show you on top the previous page URL and not url to index.php

When i do this, i get

Code: [Select]

index.php
Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/domain/public_html/wallpapers/global.php:232) in /home/domain/public_html/wallpapers/includes/sessions.php on line 100And then on every page i Visit that index.php is there along with the warning message.

If all that is correct, then there is somewhere in other files you've modified, variable $url is being altered...that what you should start digging

Now should i start digging  ?? If so, give me some idea, what kind of modification it could be ?

It looks like you uploaded your files in binary mode (or perhaps on auto-mode but was automatically considered as binary mode during the transfer of your files). If it's the case, you might want to manually switch to ASCII mode in order to get rid of these errors in the future.

Try add the echo $url; above:

Code: [Select]

if ($url == $self_url || $url == "" || !preg_match("/\.php/", $url)) {
Still, I'd like to test it myself

Ok, I found the problem. The mod_rewrite mod you are using has a side effect...I didnt even know about it till now.
So, since you are using .htm instead of .php extensions, you'll need replace in global.php:

Code: [Select]

if ($url == $self_url || $url == "" || !preg_match("/\.php/", $url)) {with this:

Code: [Select]

$ext = strtolower(substr(strrchr($url,"."), 1));
$ext = substr($ext,0,(strlen($ext)-strlen(strrchr($ext,"?"))));
if ($url == $self_url || $url == "" || ($ext != "php" && $ext != "htm")) {

P.S.
you can remove the echo thingie

If I were really embarassed, I wouldn't quite resolved the same issue on that other topic.

So, the only reason you showed that URL was to show that once you were actualy correct? man, you have issues...
STOP THE SPAM!

[Fastian]

Thanks V@no
Now its working just fine. No more redirects to home page. The above code works well.

Well I guess changing the default way of displaying pages has it's price. I hope nothing more is coming from that mod

I have problem here. Sometime, the download limit doesn't work due to the cookie. It means users can download as many as they want although i set the limit. I have tested it myself. After I clear the cookie, the download limit works again. Is there anyway to prevent it? thanks

[V@no]

Is there anyway to prevent it?

No, untill you write detailed step-by-step instructions how to reproduce it...

Will this mod work in the new 1.7.2? Thanks 

[renicolay]

I'm also wondering if this mod will work with 1.7.2.  I would like to upgrade.  Does anyone know?

[ladytaz]

Nevermind ..... I got it to work, I figured it out myself.   



Enquiring minds would really like to know ... 

I attempted to add it to v1.7.2, but at least one of the files is a bit different.  I tried to improvise, but it did not fully work.
The mod shows up, but does not count down, downloads stays at 0, nor will it stop downloads at the cut off limit.

Hi,

Cant find code at step Step 2.3.
I'm running version 1.7.2.

Is there a problem with my php file, or the mod was designed to another version?
