Still didn't work.

I uploaded all the files again and have gotten different errors at different times.

For example, 12004 once, another time 12001, and another time 11999

I really don't know what to say. There's clearly some problem in the upload process on your site, which is corrupting the xml file. Possibly this is to do with your server settings. If you want me to take a look, send me a PM with full site details including a username and password with full vb admin rights.

Maybe it is the FTP program, maybe you have an uploads manager in your cpanel, if any available.

I think I'll wait a few days until I visit it again.

Will be out of town.

Andrew, will check back in and thank you for the help!

I posed this problem to the guys at vb.com, who said that XML errors like that are generally related to a php issue. PHP is timing out, or hitting a memory limit. I tend to agree that this is the most likely cause of your problem. I suspect the memory limit is the more likely.

Quick question:

I want to show a splash image but ONLY on the link_main (local_link.php front page).

I added the code to the link_main template. Is there an "if condition" for the template or any other way I can restrict this to only the local_links.php front page? For now it's showing up on ALL local_links pages.

Thanks.

Yes, indeed. $viewcatid will be set to -1 if you are on the front page. So put in a test such as

thanks! Works!

What does "Empty and reinitialise database" do? Empty all entries then reloads them?

I've just linked the categories with forums and would like a new thread created for old links.

If i use "Empty and reinitialise database" will this force creation of new threads now that it's enabled in settings?

Thanks

NO!!! Empty and reinitialise database does exactly what it says - it deletes everything you have entered and resets everything back to when you first installed LDM.

There is currently no facility to create new threads from old entries. Sorry.
