The long awaited sBorg v5.4 is finally available! How to upgrade:
http://forums.sborg.us/thread-87.html
After over 2 months in development, countless hours of coding and recoding has finally paid off! We have done it! We have made sBorg download multiple files at once! Yes, you read it right, we have made sBorg download multiple files simultaneously! This means if you enter 10 links at once, sBorg will start downloading all 10 files side by side. You remember us saying PHP wasn't multi-threaded so we cant do something like that? Well it turns out there are some functions that can be used by advanced level programmers to do multi-threaded (or simultanious) downloading.
It wasn't easy to understand (as you know, we are not advanced level programmers) so we had been working on it secretly for the past 6 months, 4 months of which we are trying to understand the basics, and the last 2 months, recoding sBorg to implement the modified downloader function that is able to perform simultaneous downloading by the help of virtual multi-threading.
However that is not all we did. We realized that if an abuser starts to download 100 files at once, its bad for a reseller, where as you might want to download 100 files if you are hosted on a personal super sized server. So, we've added an option to set the "number of connections (or simultaneous downloads) an user can run" on install page. The default value of 50 is for personal servers, where as resellers may want to lower it to a more reliable value that fits their server.
We've also added a master control switch to sBorg's index page. This will let you KILL all sBorg instances at once! Did something wrong or want to stop your running sBorg process? Just go to index page, set master switch to "Stopped". This will stop all sBorg processes and prevent running of new processes. When you want to use sBorg again, just set it to "Active".
From now on, sBorg will generate both BB codes for forums and HTML codes for sites together! Both post templates will be mailed to you (and saved in logs file) so that you can just copy paste it to any forum or site of your choice.
We've received a lot of requests for filehost download plugins, so we've added Wupload, Uploaded.to and Uploadstation download plugins!
Thats just a few of the new features of the latest sBorg! If you want to know all of them, just read through the full feature list bellow.
