I just got XOOPS installed and working a few days ago so please bear with my newbie questions. I've played around with installing and activating various blocks and modules. Now I'm trying to actually set up my site to do what I want to do.

I need to be able to upload a couple files that users can then download. I don't need users to be able to upload files (yet). I'm a bit confused by the default mydownloads module that comes with xoops. I don't see any way to upload files via that module. Am I supposed to upload files via ftp into the uploads directory, and then use the mydownloads module to point to files there?

I've also searched the forum about this and found a couple threads that helped a bit but also led to confusion, here they are :

From these 2 threads, it looks like there are 2 different groups of people working on the same mydownloads module? I'm trying to install the version from the wf-section people atm, we'll see how that goes.
