WordPress Download Module

February 17th, 2010 Comments off

I have created a site for a client, but need some help. Have a look at attachment.

On the page, the client will have a list of downloadable products. There is one for now. The format is image on the left, title on the right with description below. Both the image and title should be linkable to the download file.

At the moment I am using a component called WP-Table Reloaded for the layout, but I need a better plug in that is easier for the client to use to choose the download files. Currently, they have to copy the link URL and manually put it in the table between the HTML tags.

It should be easy to choose an image, and select the download file.

I have looked for a plug in but cannot find one. If you know of any, feel free to install it for me and configure it.

Please PM for further requirements

Thanks

Download Function Not Showing

December 4th, 2009 Comments off

For some users who have logged in to the website, the download image in bottom right of screen is not appearing on search results page.

This is very strange, since when I myself log in I can see the button, and so can many other users.

Please see attached files, which show the screenshot & code from my computer when I am logged in (mycode.asp & myscreenshot.png). They show the “download” image in bottom right corner of screen.

And then see the customer screenshot & code, which is not showing the “download” image.

How is it possible that someone cannot see the “download” image, whilst others (myself included) can?

Please resolve asap!

File Hosting + Torrent Proxy

August 14th, 2009 Comments off

I need a custom file hosting script that allows users to have virtual drives which mimic the look windows operating system (i.e.: http://www.4shared.com/dir/1567809/8fff9481/clone.html). Must support username/password authentication features, and other permissions should be able to be set by users.

Must also incorporate a torrent client proxy (allowing users to submit .torrent urls or upload .torrent files from their desktop) and OUR server will download them, and when the download is complete we will provide the user with an http download link from our server.

Must also handle the in-browser viewing of specific types of files in different ways: i.e.: pdf files should be viewable in-browser similarly to www.docshare.com, .doc files should have a similar viewing mechanism, movies should play in browser.

Please read on if you are capable of creating a scalable high-usage and distributed file sharing back-end.

Requirements Interview Answers:
To help you bid more accurately, the buyer was interviewed about the requirements for this project. Below are their answers.
Project Type: What kind of work do you need done?
Software related (Includes desktop applications and internet websites)
Project Parts: What do you want the seller to do on this project?

Requirements: The seller will analyze the problem and propose a software-based solution to the problem.
Programming: The programmer will take the requirements and translate them into the language of the computer (and test it).
User installation: The installer will move the software from the place it was created (which is called the development or QC environment) to where you will use it (which is called the production environment). The installer then tests the software to make sure that the installation was done properly and completely.
Req. Doc. Type: What kind of documentation do you want for this project?
Formal documentation – After talking back and forth, the seller creates a formal document and/or prototype, as follows:

* Prototype: The analyst will create a non-working mockup of all pages/screens in the final software. Creating a prototype makes it easier for the user to visualize the final software, and reduces misunderstandings.
* Requirements Document: The analyst will create a document describing everything the final software will do (other than what is documented in the prototype…if the buyer required one).

Program Type: What kind of software should the seller create (and/or install)?

* An internet web-site: This software runs on a web server and users will access it using their internet browser.
* A desktop or server program: This software runs on a user’s own PC/workstation, or on a server.

Internet web-site info
Design and functionality: What does the programming of this project involve?

* Design: Create the layout of the pages (or modify the layout of existing pages).
* Program Functionality: Making the website “work”.

Modeling another site: Do you wish to model another site? Yes: file sharing web site similar to http://www.4shared.com
*virtual drive (http://www.4shared.com/dir/1567809/8fff9481/clone.html)
*ad placements, multiple pages shown before getting to download page

torrent client proxy feature of http://www.furk.net

in-browser viewing capabilities similar to:

movies – http://www.zshare.net/video/621059774a393bc1/
–ability to have server also convert .mov/.avi uploads to flv on the fly and stream

pictures/photo albums – http://media.photobucket.com/image/color%20splash/findstuff22/Best%20Images/Photography/colorsplashthumb222edit.jpg?o=1

.zip – have the ability for a user to unzip a .zip file in their virtual drive (if they have enough resources available based on what account type they have)
Size of website: How many pages need to be created/edited in this website?
Approximately 13.
Programming Language: What programming language(s) do you want your website written in?
I do know the language(s).
Languages(s):

* Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
* PHP

Misc. details: Would like to have desktop uploader programmed in Java for cross-platform compatibility beween PC and Mac users.

* IE 6.0
* Firefox 3.0
* Firefox 2.0-2.x
* Firefox 1.5
* Safari 41
* Firefox 1.0

Server Hosting Environment: What is your server hosting environment?
I have a server at a 3rd party hosting company.
The name of the hosting company is: Voxel.net
The server’s shared/dedicated status is: Dedicated just to me.

Component Compatibility Protection:
Sometimes a programmer may create features on the website that rely on componentswhich work fine on their own server, but won’t work with your 3rd party hosting company’s server. There are many reasons for this including version incompatibility, restricted permissions, etc… Rent A Coder normally requires that the programmer verify in advance that your 3rd party hosting provider will support the components. If they do not, then they are responsible for any incompatibilities, rather than you. Do you want this protection on your project?
No, I will be responsible for any components of the final solution that do not work with my hosting company.
Server Hosting Environment: Will the coder develop “live” on your server?
No. The programmer is responsible for creating their own development and/or qc environment.
Physical installation: Who will perform the physical installation?
The programmer will perform the physical installation, and will be given all necessary permissions to do so.
Desktop / server program info
Size of application: How many screens/forms need to be created/edited in this application?
Approximately 3-5.
Programming Language: What programming language(s) do you want your application written in?
I do know the language(s).
Languages(s):

* Java

http://www.4shared.com/uploader/

Operating system(s) What operating systems(s) do you want your application to work on?
I do know the operating system(s):
# Microsoft Windows — version(s): XP, Vista, 7
# Macintosh — version(s): 9, OS X
Database: Will this project include a database?
No, it does not include a database.
Installation Program: Does the programmer need to create an installation program?
Yes AND the program will be installed on only a single computer.
Legal: 1) I require complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done (so that I may modify it in the future).
2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables):
2a) Any website server-side deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer’s environment.
2b) If there are any server-side deliverables (intended to only exist in one place in the Buyer’s environment) then they must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition (unless specified elsewhere by the Buyer).
2c) All other software (including but not limited to any desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute) must include a software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request (unless specified elsewhere by the Buyer).
3) All deliverables will be considered “work made for hire” under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased.
3b) No part of the deliverable may contain any copyright restricted 3rd party components (including GPL, GNU, Copyleft, etc.) unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the seller’s Seller Legal Agreement.
Other Requirements:
File Hosting script that allows users to have virtual folders which mimic the windows operating system (i.e.: http://www.4shared.com/dir/1567809/8fff9481/clone.html). Must support username/password authentication features, and other permissions should be able to be set by users.

*virus scanning feature*
integration of http://www.kaspersky.com/anti-virus_linux_file_server – automated for all premium paid users – free users have “insecure” virtual drives

–Ability to upload files from desktop computer, remote url, or torrent.
*1 file or multiple file upload options
-Javascript & AJAX based uploader and file manager
*ability to tag uploads with relevant keywords
*Virtual Drive Privacy*
User will have the ability to toggle entire folders and individual files are private or publicly viewable
i.e.: ourdomainname.com/username and username.ourdomainname.com will display the user’s publicly viewable files.
*Photo album folders*
–users will be able to assign passwords to directories and files
Ability for users to upload photos and create photo albums

*in frame playback*
music files should play in browser
movie files should play in browser
flash files should play in browser

*search feature*
ability to have homepage search box that will search uploaded files which are toggled for public viewing by users and show results based on file name and tag matches
-ability to do advanced search and select/filter different file types to give results for
-thumbnails for image results, zip folder icon for .zip matches, file icon for .exe matches, etc.

Different classes of users – free vs. paid and bandwidth throttling depending on class of user.
–Need the ability to track user’s bandwidth usage and limit resources (maximum file storage space, etc.)
–PayPal integration for automatic account creation and resource allocation

* Torrent proxy feature* (similar to www.furk.net)- allow users to submit .torrent urls or upload a .torrent file from their desktop from all major trackers (i.e.: http://isohunt.com/download/105241149/debian.torrent) at which point, OUR server will act as a torrent client, and download the torrented file that the user requests, and once it is finished, place it in their virtual drive for http download. The user will also be shown the status of the download with an avg k/s meter and a completion meter.

*File caching*
torrent downloads will be cached with an expiry of a definable number of days (i.e.: 30 days) – when a user downloads a torrented file to OUR servers it will be deleted in 30 days, unless another user requests the exact same .torrent download (MD5 checksum, maybe?), then the 30 day expiration starts over.

If the torrent has already been downloaded by another user, and the files are still active in our cache of recently downloaded files, then the user should be able to directly download the files without waiting. If the files are not currently available, the .torrent is moved into a queue of torrents to be downloaded by our torrenting cluster (if the same .torrent is not already in the queue from another user). Our torrenting cluster will then download the files, and upon completion, will import them into our mogilefs file system, while also updating the database accordingly so that it knows what files are associated with the downloaded torrent, and so it knows where to get those files and that they are available.

MogileFS functions best with chunks of data under 64GB, so we must segment files for scalability.

*1 IP download links*
Torrented files will be in a special folder in the user’s virtual drive which can only be viewed by the user when logged in. i.e.: to prevent users from sharing links to files in the torrent directory, they must be logged in to get the download links – and to prevent users from sharing download links – only the IP address of the logged in user that generates a link in THAT specific instance will be able to download from that link using their web browser or download manager.

*Virtual Drive Privacy*
User will have the ability to toggle entire folders and individual files are private or publicly viewable

i.e.: ourdomainname.com/username and username.ourdomainname.com will display the user’s publicly viewable files.

*download multiple files as 1 zip file*
We want users to be able to download multiple files as one .zip file. We have a module for nginx programmed for us that can do this. Upon being supplied a list of files, their crc32′s, and other relevant information that we already have available, this module will create a zip file on the fly to stream to the end user, while also supporting resuming.

In order to finish this functionality, our script needs to let the user decide which files they want to include in their .zip archive they are downloading, and then pass the list of files off to the nginx zip manager when the user tries to download the .zip archive.

The user should be able to select which files to zip from their virtual drive interface.

*DMCA banning feature*
We will need to be able to ban individual .torrents, or individual actual files, in order to respond to DMCA complaints.

*scalability*
As we plan to be able to quickly support many servers, thousands of users, and many terabytes of files in a system that may or may not properly handle this, load testing and scaling testing will be needed before launch to identify our initial bottlenecks so that we can address them.

Need Php Programmer

April 6th, 2009 Comments off

I have a FILEHOSTING SITE, and I want to add a system to it, so when members arrive at the download page, they have to complete an offer before they can download the file. After they complete the offer, then they can download the file.

For each offer that the user complete, the UPLOADER gets $X amount of money in his account. And the system should keep track of each user uploads and how much they are earning. When they reach $10, they can request a Payout from us.

I already have a filehosting website and i need this system integrated into my current script.

Here is how the system will work:

1. The downloader will reach the download page.

2. The page will check to see if the user has completed the offer before or not. DONT USE COOKIE CHECKER. USE the system that Sharecash.org uses.

3. If User has completed no offer before, a popup will appear. The popup will have an iframe that links to a file in the system (ex. checker.php) that will serve as a way to communicate with the offer url and as a way to verify completed offers (algorithm).

4. If the downloader proceeds to fill out the offer and completes it, the file that checks for completion will return successful and the download prompt will appear.

5. The database will be updated and $x money will be added to what the uploader already had.

6. If the uploader reaches $10, the backend will move him to a ready to pay list with his details.

7. All the money goes into the PENDING EARNINGS of userpanel account and i put them in the APPROVED EARNINGS on the 15th of every month

BACKEND
- A user list that will allow you to filter by username, email, etc.
- A user list of ones who have $10 or more in their account.
- A list that allows you to add urls of offer pages according to Region or Country
- A list that allows you to change how much each offer is worth.
-Referals

Integrated Search with the possibility to choose from admin which results can be displayed (audios, videos, photos, files).
Website translation must be as simple as it is now even after you make all these changes.
A ‘Beta’ period in which all bugs appearing related to your modifications will be checked and solved by you in shortest times possible.
The possibility to separate countries in 3 categories and give different number of points to the users based on this. (users get points for their downloads)
SEO Optimization made by an expert.
Forum + Blog adapted to the new design.
A users top with the possibility to add this top on the download page in a very good seen place. (Top users is based on the number of downloads they generated and can be reset).
Users can set in their account a website address which will appear on top users with a name they choose.
A better audio player, the one the script actually has is too simple.
A top downloads page and a recently added page. (Both these pages can be disabled and the top downloads page must have the today, this week, this month and all time options).
