I would like to apologize to everyone regarding the delay with the scheduled release of WF-Downloads version 2.0.4.

During tests we encountered more bugs in WF-Downloads than we originally anticipated and we have been correcting these issues as quickly as possible.

Please bear with us a little longer.

this is all good :)

maybe i should have waited a bit longer b4 editing my templates.. lol

never mind, it don't take long to edit again.. :)

but great work on fixing these bugs so fast.. i luv this module.. it's a shame that most module developers don't utilise and make it so that all their modules pages can be edited thru templates like this.. without the user having to edit the actual php files.. it's more user friendly when using templates...

Maybe you should have, but we did state the next version would not be long. ;)=

I believe in keeping presentation and code separate as much as possible, as I normally get a ear ache from web developers if I do not. =D. The templates are still not fully xHTML compliant, so we now have a couple new members with the team who will look after this area. =)

There are still a few pages using templates yet, but we are concentrating on fixing those last remaining bugs before we do anything else with this or start adding new features.

Maybe I'm blind, but I'm only seeing 2.0.3beta available for download on the site. I've been trying a few different modules for downloads, this is next on the list to find one that works.

So?

There is nothing else. Actually it is the purpose of this thread to notify people that 2.04 will still take some time despite earlier notices that it might have been released last night or today.

@Studio:

From the feedback we have been getting from users, apparently this is the only upload module that ACTUALLY works =)

Our main purpose with 2.0.3 was to get the most important area's working in WF-Downloads, admin/user uploads, mimetypes and the more important bugs fixed.

This version is to get this module as close to stable for people to use on a production website and then we can concentrate on adding newer features etc.

Will the upgrade from 2.0.3 retain the catergories input? In other words, if I go and use 2.0.3 to set up our downloads section, will we be able to upgrade to the newer version when it comes out without having to re-input all the data?

I am assuming this is the case (ie it will retain the settings not lose them), but seeing as assumptions are the mother of all 'mess' ups, I thought I'd better check

Don't forget 2.0.3 is a Beta version.... It may be a better idea to wait a few days longer if you can. :)

Yes - just spotted a couple of problems - so not entirely sussed it out like I thought I had. Perhaps I'll wait until Monday. Cheers
