TOPIC: Direct Download Option For RSFiles Module

Direct Download Option For RSFiles Module 10 years 7 months ago #28931

Hi folks,

Is it possible for the RSFiles module to have a direct download option? I want users to download files directly rather than having to visit individual pages for each file they click.

Any assistance would be much appreciated!

This is a configuration option and you can find it here:

Head over to Components > RSFiles! > Settings - General tab and change Direct download to Yes.

The answer given does not work. I have set direct download and this works in the component but not for the module.

Yes, it seems that I misunderstood what gobbly2100 needed.

A solution would be to create a template override for RSFiles! module and change the way it renders the URL.

As a guideline, in the foreach loop of the \modules\mod_rsfiles_folder_content_viewer\tmpl\default.php file

insert the following line to grab the direct link:
<?php $download = rsfilesHelper::downloadlink($item,$item->fullpath); ?>

and instead of this :
href="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_rsfiles'.($item->type == 'folder' ? '&folder='.$item->fullpath : '&layout=download&path='.$item->fullpath).modRsfilesFolderContentViewerHelper::getItemid($params),false); ?>"

use this:
href="<?php echo $download->dlink; ?>"
