Hai andrew,

this is the image causing the problem
http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/222...pissuposoa.jpg

can you pls login to our site and try to upload this image in the catogary ill pm ?
ill also pm you a moderator account.

Hope you will help to solve this issue :)

I have a suspicion that the problem is caused by running out of memory when creating the thumbnail.

For some reason that I do not understand, even though your file is less that 1Mb in size, the php function that converts it to a thumbnail grabs 39Mb in order to do the job. If your php installation sets a lower value of memory_limit than this (check vb/admincp/php info, then your php.ini file), LDM fails with a blank screen. You are the first person to discover this problem in 5 years, I think:)

On my test system, everything works fine with your image (which is beautiful, by the way) when memory_limit is set to 40Mb and higher. I would recommend a value of 64Mb or more.

Let me know if this solves the problem.

Andrew, this mod works great and thanks again for the help a while back.

I do have two questions.

Is there a way to set permissions to only one file and not all of them? I'd like to force you to register to get only one file but leave the others up for whoever for example.

Otherwise if not where can I edit the error message when someone goes to download something and I've got those groups set not to be able to download anything beyond 0kb? I'd like to edit that message to say that they need to join the site/forums to be able to get unlimited downloads etc...

Thanks

Hmm... anyone has an idea on how to add multiple entries to LDM, i want to upload a series of images, and i'l lazy to add one by one, since it is the same data, only the file changes :p

I used to do this using CVS files, but i can't make XML work, I tried making a XML file like:

When it is supposed to read the link, i get error while importing the file, and i just saw there is no category attached directly to the linkid, so it seems i'd have to add also something related to "linkcats" and "ltoc" :(

Either way, do you know an easy way to add multiple entries? :D

Still running 2.2.9
thanks!

1) This is done using the 'associated forum' mechanism built into LDM. You need either to create/choose an existing forum which has the required user group permissions. You then edit the entry which you want to be restricted, and you set its associated forum to that forum. Then, your users have to be members of one of the usergroups which has access to the forum in order to download the file.

2) This message comes from the phrase <<ll_error_allowances>>. Go to vb/admincp/languages and phrases and find/edit that phrase

Indeed, your xml file needs to contain at least the linkcats, links and ltoc sections. I attach a sample file which will create a new category called Videos 2 with a set of entries.

Note the catid, linkid and ltocid values that you give can have arbitrary values, just as long as you are consistent.

Code reuploaded: see this post.

I am pleased to provide a new version of LDM for testing and your reaction. This is nominally the release candidate code for version 2.3.0, and should work fully with VB 3.7 and 3.8. These are the main changes since the 2.3.0 beta.

Please treat this with care - I have tried to test as much as possible, but it is no longer possible to test everything.

Hi andrew

thanks very good job ! Installed.

In vbadvanced :

LDM_cats.php : The display isn't good if I do 2 columns

Is it possible please to have more caracters displays for the title of the entree in ldm_new.php ?

Feature request for ldm_new_cats.php : the option "Include page navigator" and "Comma-separated list of category ids to search. Leave blank to search all categories"

Wimpy button :

I have put the licence in the admincp ldm but there is write demo when I play an audio...

And how to use wimp player and wimpy wasp ? (I have put the licence in the wasp.js).

It will be good if JW player is active for the library, we can choose to use wimply player in vbadvanced for some module that we want (when the module is in the right of the left, wimpy player can works very good because he is small). But if the module is in the center, we use jw player.

thanks very mush

The module that I would like we can use only in vbadvanced (with wimpy bouton) when the jw player is active are :

ldm_hot.php, ldm_random.php and ldm_new.php

For the oder modules and in the library it's jw player who works

thanks

OH! It seems i was missimg some code :eek:

Thank you Andrewm i'll test it, and thanks for releasin 2.3.0 RC
Will take a look at the spanish translation. :D
