vb.org Archive - Major Additions - Links and Downloads Manager

maybe it's only a suggestion for future releases: but is it possible to see the links to new entries and new ratings/comments in the /search.php?do=getnew page?

thanks for all you are doing for as with this mod ;)

EDIT: i'd like to open a thread where we can give links to our LDM pages, and have suggestion about how incorporating it with our forum!!is it possibile? and where?

Could you please answer this:

(about searching)

I'm sorry, I missed your question the first time round.

The syntax for the search urls is as follows:

.../local_links_search.php?action=show

with some or all of these parameters:

required

&search=searchstring
&desc=0/1 [search descriptions]
&keys=0/1 [search keywords]
&searchdate=0/-1/N [any date/since last visit/last N days]

optional

&filetype=typelist [filetypes, comma separated]

&catlist=n1,n2,n3[list of category ids to search]

&childcats=1 [also search child categories of those selected]

&beforeafter=1/-1 and newer/and older

&sort=N/n/h/30/6/1/D/d/R/r/U/u [Title (ascending)/Title (descending)/Hits (overall)/Hits (30 days)/Hits (7 days)/Hits (24 hours)/Date created (ascending)/Date created (descending)/Rating (ascending)/Rating (descending)/Submitter (ascending)/Submitter (descending)]

&user=username
&userid=userid

There are some other switches too, but that's probably all you need.

Andrew,
And this:

(about tab colouring)

Just to clarify: I want to find the category id variables to have the right tab be highlighted when a member is in a certain category of LDM.

Give me a couple of days to look at this - I've not see this hack before.

I'd not tried to integrate LDM with VB's search, which is a quite fearful bit of code. Maybe I'll take another look.

I'm very happy for you to create an account on the wiki (http://www.eirma.org/wikis) and add a link to your site /remarks about integration there

Install the attached plugin (vb/admincp/plugins and products/download and upload plugins)

It will integrate external urls and local entries that do not have recognised mimetypes into the "External Links Framed" hack.

I added the extra to auto create a thread when I enter a new thread, but I can't get it to work. I'm a bit slow ;-). Could you explain it with more details. When I add a link what do I do to make a thread?

Thanks AndrewD

PS I did created an special forum just for the new entries and when I created the link I select that forum, but nothing happen.

I just realised that the plugin is designed to work with version 2.2.8, and will not work correctly with 2.2.7 unless you make a small edit to the release code. I'm not sure which version you are running.

If you are using 2.2.7, edit the file local_links.php, which is in your main forums directory.

find (at line 2194)

Code:

// About to start - last chance to change things...

        ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('ldm_download_begin')) ? eval($hook) : false;

and move these two line up, so that they are just before line 2124

Code:

// Access as a regular link if:

//                 in force redirect mode

//                full url and not a known mimetype

//                qualified mimetype (a la Sourceforge)

//                local file, not a known mimetype, and neither local_file_root nor local_file_root_prefix is set

ok. i´v got another question. i have im my ldm categories like "show all" , "artist" ....

The "show all" categorie should be free to everyone. The other categories should only be shown to a special usergroup. When i put the switch "can_acces.." only to those usergroup, others will be still able to take a look at these categorie. is there a possibility to hide unauthorized categories?
