- - Links and Downloads Manager (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=91107)

Installed 2.13 on my other forum.

When i click on one of the links i get the following error message.

Error - Cannot determine if you can access link: linkid,forumid= 4, 71

I have been through the permission settings in the links admin cp and set them up.

Whenever anyone tries to do something in the download manager, they are getting the following error:

We get this when we are trying to view the image, trying to download... anything/everything. Any ideas?

**Updating

Andrew there were over 32,000 entries into the debug table in the database. I emptied this and the download manager works again. However, this might be something that needs looked into.

Has someone turned on the debug switch on the admin page?

Bits of it are already there, but we need to sort out just how many hooks are needed and where to put them. Any thoughts on the sorts of features you will wish to code via hooks?

I'd appreciate comments on the following...

Recent beta versions of LDM include the option to show an 'Accept these terms' page in between requesting a download and actually getting it. The user is taken through an extra form, to which they must answer 'yes'.

This approach breaks down if the user has a third party download manager installed on their PC. The download manager grabs the download request, gets presented with the 'accept me' form, and doesn't know what to do, so ends up delivering a file of html to the user, who is naturally bemused.

I understand the wish to place an agreement between the system and the user, to remind people that the material they are downloading has some value.

Is there another way to handle this, e.g. how about an agreement before entering the category, rather than before trying to download the link, or an agreement that sets a cookie that's valuable for a period of time, etc?

Appreciate your suggestions.

On the admin settings page, I can click the ok button and I don't get the error any more .. BUT! .. it doesn't save any of the changes :p

On the permission page something really funny happens .. it still doesn't save the change .. AND .. the permission setting I'm trying to change jumps out of the table and ends up at the top of the page .. (You'll have to see that one :))

Have you still got the details of my test forum?

Slave, OK, I think I have fixed these two problems, code attached. You may have to uninstall then delete the test LDM database (local_links_kill.php), as there will be some corrupt records in your admin table.

BUT - here is the basic difficulty. If you run this code

PHP Code:


		
			
$a[-1] = 10;

$a['-1'] = 20;

$a[1] = 50;

$a['1'] = 60;

print_r($a);

with versions of php before 4.3.3, it will print out 10, 20, 60. If you run it with later verisons it will print out 20,60. In other words, php's handling of negative array indices changed in 2003. I'm trying to find the places in the code where this crops up, but it's not easy. If we can't isolate this pretty quickly, I'll give up, as I am likely to introduce new bugs in the process.

AndrewD, awesome mod here.

Got one question, please. I make use of a non-standard (higher than admin) Core Admin group. As this is not group ID 6, I cannot access the admin page when I'm not also added to the Admin group.

Where can I find the "can_admin_links" variable. I've looked through all the files, and all the DB entries, and I cannot find it at all. Please direct me, so that I can add my Core Admin group into this variable?

Also, just one suggestion.
Consider adding some default values into the settings fields. They all can be quite daunting to fill in, and some of them, I cannot figure out what needs to go in there. For example, how do I specify only RAR and ZIP files to be added?

Anyways, great mod. Thanks a lot for all your work.

Cheers
Firestar

Look for the statement around line 99 that assigns $is_admin. can_admin_links is set around line 221 using this value.

I understand - really this has grown to a size that needs a wizard (software or human) :).

You say only zip and rar to be added. Do you mean uploaded or handled as downloads. In either case, zip and rar have to have mimetypes specified in the main vbulletin attachments table. Then you can limit uploads to this by setting the value upload_filetypes.

Thanks! seems I missed that one.

I do see the upload_filetypes field, but I do not know in which format to add the two values to. They are added to the attachments table.

Oh, and can I just re-upload the local_links_include.php file after I've changed it? Or do I need to re-import the product too?
