I noticed a couple things though. First, which ever way you have the member and guest sharing set when a user first uploads, that's the way it stays set for that user even if the config is changed afterwards. The changes do apply to those that first upload after the changes though. Also, If member is set to false so that all member fills are automatically shared, the share/hide/not shared links should be removed from the upload window. I can see some users asking what they are or why they don't work.
A feature I'd like to see is a way to search files based on category. Or even a call to only display users files of one category.<

if you disable both member and guest sharing modes, normal members WONT see those settings when they upload or edit a file's info. however the admin and moderators have the ability to change those settings even they were disabled. so in other words, disabling them will disallow normal members from seeing them but will still give admins and moderators that option.

MAN you spoiled my suprise for the new version. those 2 requests (search and category browsing) were exactly what i was working on since last version!
check out my first post 8-D...its now 2.5 updated today 23-8-2003<
I misunderstood the sharing but figured it out. The members can choose their sharing prefrences when uploading no matter what thoose are set to.
The settings only effect whether members or guest can view thoose files. I misunderstood and thought they effected whether the user had the choice of sharing his files or not when uploading.
I do think this is a great mod. A couple things I ran across in the readme were that alot of the "find this code and replace with this" listed modded code such as Private messages. Some of the code to find was not in my code (an older version of Private messages, etc) and I ended up having to hunt down a proper place to put code (especially for pop_profile.asp). This may cause a problems for some users if they don't have those mods installed.<
glad you got it right, maybe i should write a help.txt file to explain everything in my mod. but sadly i dont have enough time
regarding the "find this code and replace with this" in my readme file. i really cant support ALL other versions of other mods. if someone didnt find the code in his page, he is welcomed here (in this topic) to get help.
one more thing James,thanx for your review in snitzBitz.com, i really appreciate it 8-D<
Hey Korayem, I can't get the newest version to work correctly. The files are uploading to the main uploads folder not to the user ID's folder as the last version did. So the files are looking to the members ID folder and not finding it. Any suggestions?<
I tried to set this nice utility, but I'm getting an error. I followed all the setup instructions but it seems to be unable to receive the path variable value.

I think you need to change this part of inc_uploadconfig.asp:
'################
' Paths
'################
'NOTE: YOU MUST FIRST CREATE THE ACTUAL PATHS WRITTEN IN ALL VARIABLES HERE ELSE MOD WONT WORK AT ALL
'NOTE: ALL OF THE FOLLOWING VARIABLES SHOULDNT END WITH A "\" NONE OF THEM
'physicalUploadFolder -> path to physical location of uploading
'physicalUploadTextFolder -> path to store text files containg file information
physicalUploadFolder = "c:\blah\forum\sharedfiles"
physicalUploadTempFolder = "c:\blah\forum\sharedFiles"
physicalUploadTextFolder = "c:\blah\forum\filesText"
logFilePath = "c:\blah\forum\sharedFiles\logFiles"
