This should only work if the URL listed in your browser's location bar while viewing this topic starts with http://sw-fans.net, and you don't have any firewall software or hardware that blocks your browser from sending its http referrer address when following links.

It really isn't anything too interesting to download unless you are interesed in setting up your own MySQL/PHP torrent tracker. :)

oh good, so it is working

[TheHolo.Net]

Yep, I was able to download your text file. And Morgan was able to download the bitgrog software via my torrent link.

[Darth Viscera]

what's weird is, i don't get the "you do not have permission to download this file" error with the torrent I uploaded

[TheHolo.Net]

When you upload a torrent, your IP is automatically added to the database entry "allow list" for that torrent. The same happens when you successfully download a torrent, but it is only done once so as not to have redundant entries in the DB.

I'm working ona little bbcode addition that will give us a little box for a download link and the torrent stats live in the thread much like at SA.

But, since I couldn't find anything on their site about how they do it, I am writing mine from scratch. It looks like I should have it working fairly soon because I have the stats generated already on a page with a pre fed variable, now I just need to set up the iframe and vbcode stuff.

To get sort of a large view of what the stats will look like view this page, which is a download link and live stats for Visc's latest torrent:

YAY! It works! :D :D :D

8b4d023f1d9016aec5d25393421b4b2e4f38b91b

Is achieved by this code:

{torrent}8b4d023f1d9016aec5d25393421b4b2e4f38b91b{/torrent}

...using regular vb style tag brackets instead of { and }

If you look at the properties of the link Visc posted in the previous post you will see that part of it near the end says "info_hash=" and then a bunch of letters and numbers follow that. Those letters and numbers are what go between the torrent tags.

I've set up the upload system so that when you successfully upload a torrent, it gives you the correct vbCode to copy and paste from there into a post with no need to hunt and peck for your torrent info_hash.

Note: This vbcode will only work with torrents on our private tracker, which I still need to write up some rules for.

testing my coding

blah

[TheHolo.Net]

I've modified the vbcode to pass an additional variable that should stop people who try to download via a torrent vbcode link from getting the "You don't have permission to download this file." error.

So browser referrers are no longer required if you follow a "Fans Private Tracker" torrent link via the fancy vbcode box.

A torrent rules, creation, upload, and vbcode help for torrent links FAQ is coming soon to a BB&BB Forum near you. :)

[TheHolo.Net]

FAQ created. :D
