smahnaqvi Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 thanks for ur reply i just have got the DOC and it says * we track the torrent and save it in specified directory on local disk. * then webpage should display the link to download in particular category. * category is the folder name. * publishing the link would be manual so that administrator can make a good screen shot and then publish link with it. right now i m designing the layout - and it is very simple - on left side i've categories and rest of the page is links and their screen shots (tabulated) * no registration is required * all is free i guess my boss wanted to start his own torrent site because my company to whom i work with has nothing to do with it he chose me because i've been the team leader of website development and designing team and our website is just a promotional website with only html and basic java scripts. i m still trying to understand the whole document of requirement and got to learn about torrent site but i m not getting it clearly - and one more thing i asked for help because if i dont do the job it will effect my position in company and i have a family to feed.

ignace Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Your boss wants you to create a website that hosts illegal content? Maybe you should remind your boss of the applied fees when caught with illegal software.

thewooleymammoth Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I thought torrent flux had a front end as well..... but if it doesnt im pretty sure it uses a mysql database to interact with users so check that out first. see how the structure looks and then just build pages around it.

thewooleymammoth Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I think you need a little more background on torrenting before you continue. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torrent Do you need tracker software as well or are you using other peoples trackers? also none of those sites are even torrent sites. they just like to megaupload and rapidshare files. So if your looking for a link sharing site, try something searching for a link sharing system. There might be one on http://www.hotscripts.com or just google it. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=php+link+sharing+script Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/201226-help-needed-to-start-a-torrent-client-website/#findComment-1060647 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soldier Jane Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Yeah, it should be pretty straightforward to create a site that simply hosts/points-to files. Basically database output and searching, but if you need to set up a tracker you're gonna need some sort of dedicated server loaded with the tracker software I'd have thought. What's this rapidleech php script you speak of?

thewooleymammoth Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 well, dont get a server within the us.... cause thats gonna be amazingly illegal. If your going to host the files just upload them to your site and put a link to them. If your going to do this though i would highly recommend just linking to the files on megaupload/rapidsearch. hosting them yourself is probably the quickest way to a lawsuit that i can think of.

Soldier Jane Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 hosting them yourself is probably the quickest way to a lawsuit that i can think of. I would second that. Also, make sure that anything to do with this is all in your boss' name, though you'd still be relying on him denying/not mentioning your involvement if it did go to court or whatever. Sketchy.

smahnaqvi Posted June 17, 2010 Author Share Posted June 17, 2010 thank you guys - i m out of US and have talked to my boss about the legal issues - we have a signed agreement that in case of any trouble regarding website i'll be out of it. anyway thanks again for mentioning the risk - and dude my question is still not answered - plz help me building the site - he wants to show a list of categories on main page and rest of the files behind the category link with screen shots. honestly, i need a php script for this. something like http://www.re1ease.net/ Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/201226-help-needed-to-start-a-torrent-client-website/#findComment-1073262 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soldier Jane Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 You might struggle getting someone to write code for you thus getting involved in something riddled with legal issues. However, I have no idea what stance people have on such issues around here. It seems like what you are trying to build is relatively simple though. In a nutshell you need to add entires to a database such as name, info, screenshot, location of file (or link?) and date added. Then you just need to pull them from the database and display them in an organised manner, according to your layout/styling. Standard gallery stuff really. If there was no legal issue I'm sure that many people would jump at the chance to work with you, perhaps even without incentive. Alas you may have to stick with advice/found scripts. Edit: I'd recommend you check out the phpcredo system that thewooleymammoth suggested, it might solve alot of problems for you, especially if you already has ideas/work for the layout.
