Thanks, apart from this, I got another issue when registered user's are trying to upload files, it gives error saying max file size exceeded even though the file is just 250kb got this error for 10kb file as well.

In my user groups have given them large size for attachments, in LDM max upload size is 0 unlimited (have 300gb space).
how can i fix this thanks :)

How can i fix this???
I'ts urgent!!!

EDITED: I'm administrator, and i can't edit some links. Please help me. Thanks!!!

sounds to me like you need to increase the upload size in your php.ini file

Login to admincp>links and downloads>settings at the bottom of that page is a box with the following info
PHP 5.1.6
allow_url_fopen Yes
cURL Yes
GD2 Yes
open_basedir Unset
post_max_size 20M
upload_max_filesize 21M

what is your post_max_size and upload_max_filesize

Sorry, I missed your post showing your settings :p

A couple of things spring to mind ..

Do you have those templates installed within the style you are using? Looking at your screen shot you're using a custom style, perhaps it didn't update correctly?

How did you install the module? Not sure if it's been fixed in v2.2.1 but in earlier versions of CMPS if you didn't put in the template names first, before picking other options on that page, CMPS would ignore them. Not sure why TBH. Perhaps recreate the module and see what happens?

Hello

I have tried many times to used the Mod_Rewrite and use the seo_friendly links, but I can't get it to work.

1. I have an .htaccess file and I added the 5 lines noted in the LDM manual.
2. Then I turn to YES the seo_friendly.

but is not working, when I click one of the categories it takes me back to LDM index page.

What am doing wrong?

My forum has vBSEO, do you think that is interfering with the mod?

Hi!
Can any one help me please?
I really apreciate your help
Thanks a lot!!!!!!!

Hmm... all i can think is, did you gave enough permissions to the admin group, maybe you moved something.

Or, did the second admin has administrator as primary group? :surprised:

Sure Andrew will have more ideas, wait for him to go online... remember he is in Europe :D

Time to kick my pillow :)

Happy to help you - it's much easier if I can take a look at your site - send me a PM with a username and password that has admin privs for your board and I'll gladly take a look.

Andrew's problem is that he is in too many parts of Europe :knockedout: seems to spend his life on trains and planes. As a result, the number of ideas is dropping sharply.

Almost certainly, you have two hacks interfering with each other. I've not looked at VBSEO - has anyone else any advice?

I think he was trying to say that you need to make copies of the ldm_new module. Edit each of them to display entries from only one of your categories of interest, then install them separately into vba.

If you use only one module with the filter (ltoc IN (a,b,c)), then it will group all the categories into one display group.

I'll try to go through the whole vba installation process this weekend to get to the bottom of the other discussion.

Can I take a look at your site? - I'm concerned that you are having to set force_redirect to 1 to get downloads to work properly. If so, send me a PM with an admin username/password.

PHP (php.ini) 4.3.11
allow_url_fopen Yes
cURL Yes
GD2 Yes
open_basedir (not set)
post_max_size 8M
upload_max_filesize 2M

I think 2mb is enough, the problem is even 10kb file is not being able to upload from LDM, it works from attachments, downloadsII and wallpapers.

Where do I place my .htaccess? I have been trying to get the rewrite to work without success.

2mb is definitely enough. Can I take a look at your site, please. (send me a PM)

Usually this goes in the forum directory, but I think it depends on the web server software you are using.

I have sent you this info by PM.
Is there an add on to vBSEO site map for LDM?

:confused: no, no, don't let ideas drop down... ideas move and change the world!!!

You can also have a long nap from time to time. :D

You have probably set the maximum filesize for every filetype to 5000 bytes in your vb/admincp/attachments/attachment manager information.

On your site, I can see that this limit is being set explicitly to 5000 (log on to LDM as a registered user, do 'add entry', and click on the drop down 'uploadable filetypes and size limits). This is only possible if the vb attachment table says this or if the one of the php.ini variables upload_max_filesize and post_max_size is set to 5000. You've told us that the second is not the case, so it must be the first.

Get back to me if this does not resolve the problem - you'll need to change my account to 'admin' for me to do any more.

I attach modified versions of the link_play_standalone and link_play_embedded templates, with the save/email/etc links included. Just import these via the VB admincp.

You can edit any of the main linkbit templates to include a 'save' option. You need to place the following code:
where you want it to appear.

The templates are as follows:

modern - links_linkbit
photo - links_linkbit_photo
table - links_linkbit_table
bold - links_linkbit_greg

If sis files are defined in the vb attachment table, then LDM will handle them automatically as downloadable files. However, there's no means to automatically display a screen shot - the standard utility libraries do not know how to extract the graphics. What you could do is create separate jpg files as screen shots and upload these as the accompanying 'image' in the LDM add entry form.

thanks andrew for your great support on this

that'd be real nice.

I tried this but it seems that using a copy of ldm_new module doesnt show any links. I renamed the second copy of ldm_new to ldm_new_manga and uploaded it then made a new modul in vbadvanced using the different copy but it doesnt show anything in it.

Thanks That was the error, that fixed uploading files :) https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/01/19.gif

Thanks. New version upgraded flawlessly!

Any news on my request

is it work with 3.6.4 ?

Yes, works fine on vB 3.6.4.
Bye!

Just installed and now going through the settings in my control panel.

Is there suppose to be a link in the navbar for my members to use this program? I have a custom navbar and am worried that maybe the xml didn't install the code in the navbar if that's the case.

Thanks,
Gonzo

Anyone using this on their forumhome? I'd like to see it if so.

The instructions to do this is confusing me.

<a href="http://www.versionist.com" target="_blank">www.versionist.com</a> ..its a vbadvanced home though

thanks chorton!

Am I understanding that I need to add a link on my navbar for my users pointing to: http://nameofmysite/forums/local_links.php

Thanks,
Gonzo

You need a link somewhere. Most people do this by editing their navbar. Another option is to have a single link on your home page, for example using a vbadvanced module. In either case, the url you have given is correct.

It's explained in the documentation wiki at http://www.eirma.org/wikis/index.php...hin_your_board

I worked on this over the weekend, and turned the current ldm/vba interfaces into .module files. This means that the adjustable parameters can now be set via vbadvanced's admincp page (Edit Modules), rather than by patching the code.

I think everything is working correctly, so perhaps you can give it a try. For your purpose, upload the ldm_new.module into vba, set its title and category (categories), then use vba to copy the module and set a new title/category.

Let me know that this works ok.

FEATURE REQUEST:

Can you add .FLV / FLA extensions to your medialist?

Hello,

I have just installed LDM on VBB 3.6.3 on a fresh install. When I click "add category" via the admin page it takes me to an error message saying that the category does not exist.

This is exactly what I did to cause the fault:

- Fresh install of VBB
- Installed vbAdvanced
- Installed LDM
- Went into admin cp and added one top level category which added correctly
- Attempted to add another top level category which did not add correctly

When trying to add the top level category this is the page it goes to:

mydomain.com/local_links.php?action=addcat&catid=-1

And this is the error message:

Category does not exist.

Go Back

I know the category does not exist; its supposed to be adding a new top level category :D I would appreciate any insight anyone could give.

Should I try a full remove and reinstall and see if that does it? Using the "Kill LDM totally" script mentioned here http://www.eirma.org/wikis/index.php...g_LDM#Removing ?

Thanks in advance!

have a request andrewd can we add a few little link icons?

need .exe .tar .avi .wmv and torrent

i have all but the tar image and i am not sure where to find one, the others i found here on this forum, obviouosly avi/wmv are the same image ;)

can we add them so they show up in the links and download manager?

for everyone who doesn't know

1st is avi/wmv
2nd is exe
3rd is torrent
4th should be tar but i don't have it ;) and i need it

Thanks for the detailed report, and sorry to learn of your problems. I cannot reproduce this error on my test system - I set up a empty database and followed your path, but everything seemed to work fine.

It really shouldn't be necessary to uninstall and reinstall - this should just work out of the box. Any chance of taking a look at your site? I'd like to get to the bottom of this. Send me a PM.

What you do is put these into the LDM icons directory with filename "filetype.gif" (.png should also work). LDM will automatically pick them up. So you need to create avi.gif, wmv.gif, exe.gif and tar.gif.

On my PC, tar files use the same icon as zips - I suppose that is because winzip has associated the extension with itself. You could just copy zip.gif to tar.gif.

If you like, I'll add your three icons to the main release next time round?
