It’s worth mentioning that the download figures will not add up to the total extension downloads from part four, because some extensions belong to more than one category.Īdd-Ons are the most popular type of extension, most likely due to their broad nature, with all of the top 10 most downloaded extensions belonging to this category (among others). session-cookies-$USER -k -m -E -p -np -R $PHPBB_URL/viewtopic.To round out this series, we’ll look at the different categories of extensions that people like to download. # loop thru topics see below(but above should get most with the options. session-cookies-$USER -k -m -E -p -np -R memberlist.php*,faq.php*,viewtopic.php*p=*,posting.php*,search.php*,ucp.php*,viewonline.php*,*sid*,*view=print*,*start=0* $PHPBB_URL/viewtopic.php?t=27704 $PHPBB_URL/ucp.php?mode=login -referer="$PHPBB_URL/ucp.php?mode=login" \ post-data="username=$USER&password=$PASS&redirect=index.php&sid=$SID&login=Login" \ Wget -save-cookies=./session-cookies-$USER \ session-cookies-$USER | grep _sid | cut -d$'\011' -f7`Įcho "Login $USER -> $PHPBB_URL SID=$SID" Wget -save-cookies=./session-cookies-$USER $PHPBB_URL/ucp.php?mode=login -O - 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null

This project looks promising but didn't quite work for me: Here some added info to lots of noise but a start if you need to login. So this is going to burn a lot of time and bandwidth.

In particular memberlist.php and viewtopic.php where p= is specified can create thousands of files!ĭue to this bug in wget it will still download an astounding number of those useless files - esepcially viewtopic.php?p= ones - before simply deleting them. I have also excluded some other pages that lead to a lot of cruft being saved. (Perhaps there's a way to force the recursive wget to start from index.php - I don't know). Except for one squirreled away somewhere - which links to a plain index.php which then continues with no sid= parameter. They seem to get added automatically by the index page, and then get attached to all the links in a virus-like fashion. I wanted to strip out those pesky session id things (sid=blahblahblah). Here's the command I'm using: wget -k -m -E -p -np -R memberlist.php*,faq.php*,viewtopic.php*p=*,posting.php*,search.php*,ucp.php*,viewonline.php*,*sid*,*view=print*,*start=0* -o log.txt
