Andrew has been quiet... so it must be real soon.

Have you tried the alpha 2.2.7 release - see this post? I'm looking forward to reports. The second alpha is being tested by one of my happy users.

It will be a few weeks before 2.2.7 is absolutely complete, but I hope that the main code will be stable very soon.

When I click on the sub categories, it takes me to an error site.

404 Not Found
The requested URL /forum/local_links/links/21 does not exist.

Not sure why this is happening, anyone know how to fix it?

I think you have enabled the LDM 'seo_friendly' option (LDM/admin/settings) without configuring your web server (Apache?) accordingly.

It's explained in the manual:

Andrew! Thank you! That's EXACTLY what I did!!
Fixed all up!

Andrew,

I found someting interesting that I dont know if you knew about. but if you set say a special section in the regular forums that is hidden, say for special downloads, that normally not everyone can see. and you try to set the permissions in LDM to that topic, you can't, because you can;t see the forum topic to set permissions, Also even if you went and set permissions in LDM, to try to do a overide itself with LDM, everyone can still get to that area of the hidden stuff in LDM.

I don't know if you knew about it or not, just thought that maybe you can look into that. because you know my site, and there are files that we wish to keep hidden from others. and only persons with special permission can access them.

again it's not working,

Now when I put the upload directory I got this error


Network Error (tcp_error)

===========
A communication error occurred: ""
The Web Server may be down, too busy, or experiencing other problems preventing it from responding to requests. You may wish to try again at a later time.
==============


and here's the info I have


local_file_root------------------> Enabled
local_file_root_prefix----------> (not set)
File uploads---------------------> Enabled
upload_dir-----------------------> (not set)


Is there something related to safe mode? ( as it's off here)

Hello AndrewD

Thank you again for this mod.

Lately I been having some problems with LDM. The problem is that the files I have link to are very large and when the user are trying to download, with a slow computer or connection, it will time out and stop the transfer. I read, in previous post, that the problem is MySql. Is there any way to by pass that? you mention that it is possible but you get some other problems?

Also, I just upgrade to 2.2.7 and I notice that there is no longer a "seo_friendly" option, I never got it to work when I had 2.2.6 and I was wonder if I may be able to make it work with 2.2.7.

Thanks

Hi, I hope my PMs have helped you sort out your problem with downloads timing out.

The seo_friendly option is still there - it may have moved to somewhere else on the settings page but it hasn't changed. However, in order to get this feature to work, you must also configure your web server, as described in the online manual.

HI, I'm sure that these problems are related to the way your web server is configured. Unfortunately, this is not something I can help you with 'from a distance'
