The look should change with the users selected skin no matter it being default or not. It does with my site but I have 2.2.6 installed so may be a bug? But im sure it isnt.

I installed ver. 2.2.7 and it seems to only use the default skin specified in the mod setting. It doesn't change when i try to use other forum skins. I wonder if this is a bug.

Sorry, I've been out of town all week and I had a disk crash last weekend :mad: .

I thought LDM was handling style choices correctly, but I will test this again over the weekend. The code that handles style choices has not changed (as far as I can see) from version 2.2.6 to 2.2.7. So if there's a bug, it's in both versions.

You need to be aware of the following:

* The default behaviour is simply to use the current VB setting, so if the user has made a choice or not, this should be used.

* It is possible to over-ride this behaviour, either for LDM as a whole or on a category basis. This is done with the *default_style* setting - the global value is set on the admin/settings page and the per-category value is set on the relevant Edit Category/control settings page. See attached image.

* If the value is over-ridden in a category, then that new value will also apply in any categories that are children of the category, etc, unless they over-ride the value themselves.

* Some LDM displays will not use a category over-ride, because they are not part of the category structure. For example, the admin pages, search pages, etc, always use the global LDM setting.

So I suggest you check that you haven't told LDM to use an explicit style.

Thanks for the response. It's already fixed. Sorry, i think i missed the default part in the setting. It was the other default that i clicked. I have it all sorted now. Glad you posted the screenshot. This is a very good plugin. Thank you for sharing it.

Are you still havingthis problem? - I haven't been able to check your site. However, I set up a test on my m/c and long filenames are displayed correctly - see image.

Please let me know - I want to get 2.2.7 finalised

I've been on funeral leave myself and won't be home until Sunday. But yes, the problem is still there in the display but not in the database data itself.

Is there a guide for installing wimpy on ldm 2.2.7?

Trying to configure and not sure where/how... I did this with 2.2.5 but have since wiped my forums and did a reinstall.

Thanks

edit- I search the online wiki but couldn't find anything :(

any help appreciated!

Go to the extras/wimpy directory. This includes the demo versions of Wimpy. To buy the real things, see www.wimpyplayer.com. Depending on which plugin(s) you use, you buy wimpy.swf, wasp.swf or wimpy-button.swf.

1) Upload the contents of /clientscript into your forum/clientscript

2a) To install the demo version of Wimpy, create subdirectory forum/getid3, and upload the contents of /getid3
or
2b) To install the full (paid-for) version, create forum/getid3 and copy your wimpy.swf, wasp.swf or wimpy_button.swf into it

3) Use the vb plugin installer to upload:

wimpybutton-mp3-plugin.xml (Uses Wimpy button to play mp3 files)

or

wimpyplayer-mp3_plugin.xml (standard Jukebox, uses wimpy plays mp3 only)

and/or

wimpyplayer-flash-plugin.xml (standard Jukebox, uses wimpy wasp to play flv/swf files)

OK?

When I want to add a link I get this message at the top of the page: (I use version 2.2.6)

After that the link is added successfully, but I am a little confused what this means...

Can you help me?
