Some things missing from local_links_admininclude.php perhaps?

local_file_root_prefix: force files to be in a particular part of 'web space' or 'server space'
upload_dir: the specific directory in which the uploads are stored, relative to the constraints imposed by the above

Example 1: your upload directory, uploads, is a top-level directory in http://yoursite, ie all uploads will be stored inside http://yoursite/uploads -> set local_file_root to 0, leave local_file_root_prefix blank and set upload_dir to /uploads

Example 2: your upload directory, uploads, is to be kept outside your website so that curious users can't get at it. You want it to be a subdirectory of /data on the the computer which is acting as server. All local documents that you will 'serve' to your user community will also be held in subdirectories of /data: set local_file_root to 1, set local_file_root_profix to /data and set upload_dir to /uploads



Two ways: Either use standard BBcodes [img] within the descriptions or title. Or set link_image_size to a non-zero value, in which case the link entry form will extend to include an additional item, which is the image to accompany the entry. In the second case, your web server must have the GD2 library available.

I'm getting an error trying to upload files as a test user.

I have my local_root set to 0
My local_file_root_prefix is set to /images/linksfiles
I'm trying to set my upload directory to /uploads (being a sub directory of images/linksfiles) but I got an invalid directory error so I ended up leaving it blank thinking it would dump the images into the linksfiles folder.

No problems linking off the server and everything is working well...AWESOME piece of work. I have my permissions set so registered users can do their own uploads. When I come in as a test user and try to upload I get the error failed to move file

Any thoughts? All the folder permissions are set to 777 so its got me stuffed. I think I'm misunderstanding the config of the folders but not sure.

Thanks for your help....This has made my day :)

I hope you will spend little time working on this. Thank you!

Having said that, these are the settings you should be looking for:

in php.ini:

upload_max_filesize and post_max_sizecode limit the maximum size of files that can be handled using the upload feature of LDM, irrespective of the limits set within vBulletin and LDM. post_max_sizecode should have a larger value than upload_max_filesize

in te vb admincp/Attachments/Filetypes

maximum size per filetype.
