I have basically the same question: when I clicked "report this link" on a test link, that report went to many users, including "Users Awaiting Email Confirmation" which doesn't make sense to me. I can't see immediately how to correct this, however; that group has only the top two permissions (can view category, can access link).

The basic logic in 2.2.8 is to email group a) plus group b)
a) if the category has an associated forum, then the email reports get sent to the moderators of that forum;
b) the report gets sent to all users with some level of vb admincp permissions

I am making a change between 2.2.8 and 2.2.9. In 2.2.8, group (b) is always selected.

In 2.2.9, group (b) is only selected if there are *no* associated forum* moderators *and* you have set *send post reports* on your vb admincp to email admins and moderators. In addition, in 2.2.9, the email will be sent to all users in groups that have LDM *can_moderate_links* permission in the respective category. (I think they should always have received these emails, but I seem to have overlooked them.)

I'm open to suggestions, within reason.

It is possible to close a category so that it will not accept new entries, but it is not currently possible to define a category in the way that vb does.

However, in 2.2.9, it will be possible to give subtitles for groups of entries (and groups of categories) with the same display orders.

Again, I am open to suggestions, within reason.

Thanks for the quick response!

It would be helpful to be able to manually set which usergroups or useres are able to receive these reports, either in a text list (like the vB lists 5,7,23,26 of users) or as one of the permissions settings separate from 'can moderate links'.

We for example have admins, forum moderators, and people who you could call 'content mods' for different types of content, all of which we'd want to be able to moderate links, but not necessarily all of them we'd want to be able to moderate *all* links. It would be helpful to have a setting for that, if it's possible.

i hope there is addition feature for download by unregistered by adding captcha or timer to download because some sites just copy link of download and the visitors will download without visiting my site

The secure-urls extra in the LDM release gives you the means to prevent these downloads by unregistered users

i see extra secure url

but i do not need it for play i just need it for download link
and i think the captcha or timer to download more benifits than this

thanks for support

I am having trouble with X-PHP-Script: /forum/local_links_actions.php
Somehow spammers manage to use this to send out bulk spam. I have already limited the can_send_to_friend permission to members only, but now I am experiencing the same again. Is there another setting that needs to be changed? Can you please add human verification to the send to friend form?

BTW: http://www.trapvid.com/ is closed.

We got hit by something very similar a few weeks ago. I've added human verification to the next alpha - sorry that it's taking time to appear.

Yes, I know that trapvid closed down. Most irritating, given that I devoted much of my Christmas vacation to this!

Apologies are definitely not needed. Your effort is much appreciated. I still dont understand why you do not charge for your excellent software.

Is there an alternative?

so if we upgrade to vb 3.7 once final then we will have to use this version to keep using LDM? Of can 2.2.8 work with 3.7? thanks
