vb.org Archive - Links and Downloads Manager

Yes, and there's a new option in 2.1.3.

The traditional csv export/import is still available on admin/import and export

That page also has an xml export option. The script to import xmls is in the extras directory in the zip.

Difference between the two - csv import/export will backup/restore the important data but misses out som eof the more recent entries. csv import will restore categories and links into an empty database and will restore links only into a database in which there already are some entries.

xml export is a complete dump. xml import clears your database before restoring.

I do plan at some stage to extend the xml import to allow partial imports and imports into an existing database, but that will have to wait.

Is it possible to have featured sites per catagory? So that favourites are shown as featured only in the catagory/catagories that favourite is in....

That would be great because it does not make sense to have a featured dog in a cat catagory

Hi AndrewD,

I have a question for you. I am planning to use your mod to make a collection of mailing addresses (clinics and hospitals actually) but the problem is that I either have to upload a file OR enter a URL to save the description (which will have the address) otherwise I get a error message.

Is there a way to make the mod accept description without uploading or adding a URL?
Please also not that I am also using your mod as a file and links database on the same website.

I would appreciate if you can reply and help me with this issue.

regards,

Vik

Andrew, I'm back again. We are having this with a couple members.. not sure if it's the manager or the person.

First, thank you for bringing back the freebies. I love this site and it's the first place I go every morning.

When I go the download section (like the Daily Download), I see the different downloads available. I click the link above the picture (and also tried clicking the picture), and it brings me to an accept/decline screen. I click accept and it brings up my download manager. However, the file it brings up is always called the same thing, "local link.htm".

When I go to my folders to see if it downloaded, all it contains is the blue "e" Internet Explorer symbol, and when I hit that it just brings me back to your download section.

I use MSN with Windows Explorer. This is the first time I've had trouble with your site.

It doesn't matter which zip file I try to download, I always get the same thing, a file called Local_links.htm.

Any ideas?

Will either of these make a post in a certain forum?

How can I change the button "Add Link" to "Upload a File"?

If you make it "1" this will allow you to make an entry without the need for a URL :)

I take it you're talking about the Add Link menu item?

If so you need to go to your .. admincp -> Languages & Phrases -> Search in Phrases -> Search for Text "Add Link"

This will bring up that phrase with which you can replace with whatever wording you like :)

You can then do the same thing with any other phrase you need to change.

Not sure if this is a bug or just my settings but it seems that if someone changes the site style then the LDM style still stays the same. How do I make it so that the style in LDM changes with the rest of the site?
