How can I set the windows media player to allow my members to jump forward in movies by dragging the bar. Many of my members are annoyed because there's no fast forwarding.

and could a mod please delete the last 3. Thank you. The server was telling me it was down for maintenance and wouldn't let me submit the post (or so it seemed).

hey hey ..quick question (sorry as I am sure this was asked but couldn't find it in a search):


-- Is there a way to limit usage by user's post count?

(ie: can't view or download links or download until have X posts in forums?)

Hi,

Is there a way to NOT even allow people to view links/sections if they aren't part of a particular group. I have it set that they can't download, but I'd rather them not even be able to see that the file is there..

Thanks!

There you'll find a plugin for that purpose.

You can set limits on downloads using the admin panel in LDM... to restrict users visiting some categories, I think you must set this using one of your existing forum permissions.

As ObMob says, this is done using the forums protection system.

Choose (or set up) one of your forums that has the same usergroup permissions that you want for your LDM category/entries.

Edit the category

Find the section 'Parent Forum'

Select the relevant forum, and check the 'also make this forum the parent of all links'

Submit.

This will do the trick.

I would be irritated also.

Technically, this is about getting windows media player to use the 'partial content http 206' features that are built into the web and into LDM. I'm not sure why it's not already working for you, but will invetsigate.

Hi, Clancy

LDM/admin/settings/days_seen_on_portal should do it.

This is not built in, but it's easy to achieve with a template edit.

First, I assume you want to give your users the ability to choose a category in the first place - you can take this decision away from them by removing their 'can_select_category' permission, in which case they will always post the entry in the category they are viewing when they click 'add entry'.

Second, I assume you are using the category *select* menu method, rather than the alternative long list of check boxes.

Edit the *links_addnewlink_catselect_multi* template and replace by the attached.

After you have done this, users who have *can_set_permissions* permission will still be able to select multiple categories. Others will only be able to select one.
