BFC-Download

[thanhdia]

General Info:
My third mod release. I think of this as a simple download area for users and admins to include files that their members can download. It's just a stand alone download area with no inclusion of an image gallery, link directory, etc.

Description:
BFC-Download adds a separate page to list files for download that users upload or admins/mods upload. Category listing, file listing, access only granted through a special usergroup field in the database whether a certain usergroup can download that file, then usergroup permissions to tell whether they can even view files or download files. What else can I say? Give it a try, I'm sure you'll enjoy it just as much as I've enjoyed creating it.
