Hello All,

Firstly I'll introduce myself by saying that Im new to VBulletin, I installed it 5 days ago. Im in the process of learning so that I can migrate from PHPBB.


I have installed LDM and have it working in a basic fashion here http://www.siliconhell.com/forum/index.php

I have configured it so that anybody can see the QUIZZES
I have configured the ANSWERS so that only registered users have access.

My question is:
Can it be configured so that anybody can see the ANSWERS section and read the descriptions, but only registered users can download the files?

This way the user are enticed into joining, and the spiders crawl and list the answer page.

I have done a quick RTFM but I have to admit that I got a little lost :confused:

Thanks for your patience :)

Welcome!

Two possible solutions, with an option on the first.

1) Go to the LDM admin/permissions page. Give "Can Access Entry" permission to the usergroups that you want to be able to download the files. Take the permission away from the other groups.

By default, this will produce pages without clickable urls for the usergroups who don't have access.

Option: go to LDM/admin/settings page and find the protected_link setting. If you set it to 1, people will see a url but be given a 'no permission' message if they try to access. If you set it to 2, it will take them to a 'register me' page.


2) Alternatively (in my view not as good) go to LDM admin/bandwidth settings (wording depends on the version you're running), and give the groups who you don't want accessing the files a zero allowance of files per day.

That way, they'll see the url but when they click it they'll be told 'no'

I don't have access to the apache configuration, i'm running on normal godaddy hosting plan.
I can assure You that the mod_rewrite is activated, vbseo and vblogetin seo are working good with .htaccess commands ; i don't see why LDM shouldn't.

Normally, the mod_rewrite commands you quoted should work with the .htaccess file, but it doesn't. When i'm clicking some LDM category shown as /local_links/jump/1/1 , i'm getting "No input file specified".

Inside the LDM admin settings there is an option :

I'm thinking this may be the problem if the error is "No input file specified"
I also made a text file with the mod_rewrite rules and added the path to this mod_rewrite setting, getting the same error.

I had this problem with 2.2.6 , update to 2.2.7 didn't do any good :)
The script is running well, i'm not complaining, but if i could make the seo links it would be better.
Thanks again.
Yes, I've just tested my mod_rewrite rules within an htaccess file, and something strange happens - I don't know why, and I believe those guys who describe mod_rewrite as voodoo. I'll try to find out what's going wrong and post a reply.

In the meantime, I suggest you switch off the LDM seo_friendly. Also, you *must* turn off LDM's mod_rewrite (i.e. have a blank file) - this has nothing at all to do with seo.

Sorry for the problems. We'll get there.

That is just what I needed to know and it does exactly what I need.

Thank You for a great MOD and brilliant support :)

I've played around with mod_rewrite in an .htaccess file, and this seems to work correctly:

Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*)local_links/links/([^0-9]+)$                /$1$2 [L]
RewriteRule (.*)local_links/links/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)$        /$1local_links.php?catid=$2&linkid=$3 [L]
RewriteRule (.*)local_links/links/([0-9]+)$                /$1local_links.php?catid=$2 [L]
RewriteRule (.*)local_links/jump/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)$        /$1local_links.php?action=jump&id=$2&catid=$3 [L]
RewriteRule (.*)local_links/jump/([0-9]+)$                /$1local_links.php?action=jump&id=$2 [L]
RewriteRule (.*)local_stream/([0-9]+)$                        /$1local_stream.php?action=stream&id=$2 [L]
Will welcome your experience.

something like this is happening to me too. For most users it works fine but for at least one, he can view the files but when he clicks on one, he gets sent to a login screen for vbulletin or gets an error that he doesn't have persmission to access the files. But his settings are the same as all my other vb members.
