    Default Daily Download Amount

    What is the daily download amount? According to the site I've exceeded it, though I haven't taken anything from the Downloads section all day to my knowledge. Does this also apply to attachments? If so I know of a certain someone who included more files in their mod folder they needed help with than they actually changed who I might need to send an angry mob after.

    Question again, what does the limit pertain to and what is it set at?

    I think Lusted had that issue before but it was some weird setting that wasnt supposed to be there. I will look through the downloads permissions and see if I can figure it out.

    It's clearly a bug because I'm still getting the error in the Downloads section but can DL attachments just fine. (and I haven't DLed anythign from the DL area for about half a week)

    There are no limits set on anyone, and I cant remember how Lusted's problem was solved.


    EDIT: I found Lusted's thread, but it doesnt seem to be the same issue for you.

    Well the message being received is the exact same. Maybe this is a problem of the Tech Staff usergroup? I'm like... the only one in it, though I think I've DLed things since I was made Tech Staff, I very well might not have. In yours and Sim's case, you both have Admin rights, which supercede anything the Tech Staff group would impose on you, whereas my permissions are those of the Tech Staff group.

    Would be a nice place to look, clearly isn't an actual limit because it's been over 24 hours since my first post in this thread much less since the last time I downloaded something.

    Tech Staff is set to no limits. I checked the rest of your groups as well but maybe I missed one, will look again.

    Still no dice, I think this error is bigger than all of us!

    I can't see what the problem is either. We can try removing your groups one by one to test which is the issue, although they all look the same to me. But you'd better be online for that, lest you end up missing some privileges for a lengthy period.

    And.... now it works. Really very odd though, hopefully if this happens in the future the causality will be more apparent, because I definitely wasn't imagining the problem, and it clearly has nothing to do with usergroup permissions. Unless of course one of you guys changed something between the two above posts and this one.

    Can I ask please why is the "Featured Downloads" box empty in the front page?

    It's never worked. The author of the current front page added the graphic but never actually got it working. We would remove it, except that then we'd have to redesign the front page to get "Latest Forum Posts" to still show. When the front page is replaced, the annoying empty boxes will likely disappear.

    It's better to ask this kind of question in Q&S, not here.

    I say it was the Uni Graduate group, and that the new permissions didnt take effect until you had signed out (closed the site) then back in.
