Hi,

I'm running latest versions of SMF and TP using the default SMF theme (with some purely cosmetic mods) and I'm wondering what the Download Manager does.

I have created a new category and uploaded a file but I can't see any reference to Downloads (or Uploads) in the forum. Does it just not work in the Default theme or am I not doing something to make it display?

Thanks,
Kevin

If you have created a category in your download section you must have it activated, so we skipp that part.

In order for the downloads to be visible to your members and membergroups you need to add the permissions for them in the /members/permissions/

And you also need to have a module block activated and then check the download to that block. That will show a link to the download section with your categories and downloads.

The category also need to have the group permissions checked (what group you want the category to be visible for)

Or if you rather like to have a download button in the link header you just add a button in the index.template.php file and add the action to the array and then the url to /index.php?action=tpmod;dl

EDIT: Don't worry - ignore post below, I worked it out.

I needed to select block type "TP module"  :)

Thanks G6.

Do you mean in TP Block Manager ?

I can't see a block type for "Downloads" ?
