WP-Filebase – Datei Download Manager für WordPress 16. September 2009
WP-Filebase is a powerful download manager supporting file categories, thumbnails and more.
Uploaded files can be associated with a post or page so the download URL, thumbnail and other file information are appended automatically to the content.
Additionally there are options to limit traffic and download speed.
Some more features:

- Associate files to posts and automatically attach them to the content
- Customisable file list widget

- Download speed limiter for registered users and anonymous
- Range download (allows user to pause downloads and continue them later)

I also am seeing some problems with WP 3.0 and this plugin.
1) all my hit counters have gone to 0
2) all my last download dates have gone to -
But luckily it still handles downloads. Haven’t tried uploads yet.
Great plugin!
Since is possible to automatically create thumbnails from a PDF file (e.g. http://www.redvodkajelly.com/blog/2008/04/15/how-to-create-pdf-preview-images-in-php-part-2/), can we expect to have this feature soon?

Does anyone know if there will be WordPress 3.0-version of this plugin? Some say this version work with 3.0, but it would be nice with a version that has been tested and if necessary updated for WP3.0.
Testing for WP 3.0 is in progress. This Blog is now on 3.0 with WP-Filebase running fine.
I didn’t experience this hit counter issue. Will explore this.
More things about WP 3.0.1:
1) Can not add thumbnail to existing file (Tools->WP Filebase->Manage Files->Edit file, error: “Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in [...]/wp-content/plugins/wp-filebase/wp-filebase_file.php on line 247″)
2) Permalinks fails
Storage linked to page “/files”. If permalinks ON, link to “library” section in root is: “/fileslibrary” (404). Manually “/files/library” in location bar – OK.

Thank you for the great plugin! The issue I am having with it, however, is when you go in to edit the file, it seems that the thumbnail is getting erased when uploading a new file (not touching the thumbnail settings at all). Any way to resolve this?
Also, when I do a synchronize with the server after uploading a bunch of files via FTP, it also uploads all of the thumbnails as files. If I delete the thumbnails from the filebase, they get deleted from the server and than I have to manually re-add them to the files.”
Is there going to be a fix for this?
Great plugin btw!
