Now I'm talking about URL UPLOAD SCRIPT
Plz make a script of url uploading for mybb forum.
Most of the other forums have it.
Plz make a separate script for it or add it in newreply.php

URL upload allows you to copy a file from other site and upload on your forum within few minutes.(This is very helpful for mobile users to upload big files upto 100mb on forum within few minutes.)

So plz help me guyzzzz.

I've Posted it in MY IDEA also:-

=================================

Voted for that idea. I do think it will e useful.

@kavin bro
thanks for support

I don't get the idea... If a user posts a 100Mb video link (http://myvideohost.com/video.flv) it will be uploaded to your host? First of all, I don't see the point, secondly aren't you scared of abuse and having your hard disk filled up with crap within a few days only?

Is this what you are on about?

@Bencori
Yes, if a user posts a 100Mb video link (http://myvideohost.com/video.flv) it will be uploaded to my host.
For this we have to allow a specific limit for URL UPLOAD.(upto 100 or 120 mb).
Most of the forums have this type of URL UPLOAD (Not mybb type forum).
And we dont have to scared about having hard disk filled up with crap within a few days only?
For that we have to use any host who provides unlimited disk space & bandwidth.(There r many).
& one thing i dont get, that u said "aren't you scared of abuse"
what this mean??? plz tell in easy language, (as my english is poor)
who & how anyone can abuse using URL UPLOAD ???????

He means aren't you afraid that only in a few days people will upload a whole bunch of useless files onto your host hard drive.

It's a known fact that many hosts which offer unlimited use of resources get ticked off and bug you to upgrade to another plan when you use a large quantity of their resources.

@PuppeMaster

hey i got it, thnx.
But mybb must have this kind of uploader for such user who can use premium unlimited hostings or vps servers.
