EEC.MS - ExpressionEngine add-ons

Hey Max,
I’m having great success with your MX Zip plugin thank you.

I’m running 2 options on my site:
1. User chooses files, adds them to a lightbox/collection and then downloads them to their computer using MX Zip - all good here

2. Manager chooses files, adds them to lightbox/collection and then saves the zip on the server and sends out an email link to the zip.

Is there a way to enable the user to choose the filename so each Manager can name their own zip file? Maybe via an input field within the tags?

If not is there a way to output the newly created zips name (the unix timestamp) after it has been created? This would enable me to build an URL to the correct zip.

Cheers
Steve

     

UPDATE:
Hey Max,
I have found a way to do this using “preload_replace” to change the filename before MX Zip does it’s magic

Thanks for a great plugin!

     

Great
I wanted to recommend you to use add-ons like get_post_var  for this, but looks like you solution is good too.
I just add task “Add option to reed GET_POST for parameters” for MX Zip. Hope to find free time to make it.
