I'm looking for something so my users can post files that will automatically expire after x number of days. Sort of like a local yousendit.

I saw that there's something like this in administration, is this sort of setup available and does anyone have it running on a board so I can see how it works?

Thanks,

rob

In the current code, the admin is given an easy way to select entries submitted more than N days ago, see an indication of when these were last 'hit', then easily prune them from the database. It is more a 'facilitated manual delete' rather than an 'autodelete' feature, although I don't think it would be hard to write a plugin to do this.

Ya this would be fantastic. If I could set a certain user class to be able to upload files that would be deleted after x number of downloads and / or y number days.

Andrew, 2.2.0 works great, along with the thread creation. Thanks.

Based on the responses received in the last few days, I think that we should treat 2.2.0 as the new official release, so it's recorded as such in the first post in this thread.

Please note that, after upgrading, you will need to reinstall any of the LDM optional plugins from the extras subdirectory.

Thanks to everyone for all your help.

Consolidates all changes/fixes since 2.1.0

I would very much welcome some help with completing the translation of the phrase files into French, German and Spanish. I'm attaching these to this post. The official release contains partial translations.

Oh I forgot to mention, the upgrade wiped out my custom linkbit template somehow... I had to recreate the template. So, a word to the wise if you use custom templates for displaying your content, backup the code!

Thanks for letting me know...

Andrew, attached you'll find the translated german phrases for LDM 2.2.0.

I've retranslated all phrases from the beginning (based on the original XML from 2.2.0 beta) and not used the provided german translation before... This is because I use only "German- formal SIE" and not the "Du" version.

XML should work for most users.

Thanks, Daniel :)

Rob, the 2.2.0 release includes a trial cron job that you can easily edit (two minor changes) to achieve what you want. Take a look in the /extras/prune-expiredlinks subdirectory of the zip.
