I tried wget http://www.mybb.com/download/latest but that doesn't work.

I know there is a WGET friendly link, isn't there?
Got it http://www.mybb.com/download/146

You should advertise a WGETable tarball though.

Damn that doesn't work either.

Sersiously?
wget mybb.com/download/latest
mv latest mybb.zip

That should work.
Labrocca to the rescure, MyBB central :p

Doesn't give me a zip.
Just tried it, it works fine for me.
wget http://www.mybb.com/download/latest 

will download the latest archive with a filename of "latest" but it is a valid .zip archive file. its just not named correctly.

So ifyou always use the above wget in a folder where you know you are saving to, then you can just

unzip latest

to get the Documentation and Upload folders
I don't know what's wrong with my VPS then, i just got a 1mb file called latest.l
I get a 1.8mb file called latest (that can be opened via unzip), if you follow the post by Malcolm. you get a properly named zip file that your system may prefer to work with.

I use this a lot when setting up copies of MyBB for testing and stuff.
Use the --content-disposition option, then it will save the download/latest to the name given by the server, e.g. currently it's mybb_1604.zip
Yeah, and Aries-Belgium and I put a lot of work into the One Line download options we made that favoiuz linked to Toungue
