AndrewD,

Wow, great mod, and thanks for sharing! :up:

With regards to post #1942, will you be implementing a 301 redirect? I think this would be best for SEO purposes.

Thanks for the hint - I was wondering how best to deal with this suggestion

Yes, that is what I mean. Now I need to get rid of the vB navbar and make LDM smaller (less wide) to fit in there.

andrewd,

thanks for the update on this...i see you fixed a few of my problems! not that they were mine alone but i want to thank you for the extensive time you have put into this. every time i update this manager only gets better.

i will let you know (of course) if i have problems with this update but so far its been perfect. even created the thread by itself...couldn't believe it...i have been gone so maybe it was fixed all ready but this is great!!

Firstr beta withdrawn - second beta in main post to this thread.

I've sat on this for a while, but think it needs a bit of testing. I believe that it works correctly with VB35 and VB36 and that VB35 installations will survive the upgrade to VB36. To improve performance, I've split up the main code into new files, so possibly there will be broken command links.

What's new?

Handles VB3.5 and 3.6
Extras
- patch-forumhome-newlinks sets up list of new/hot links for forumhome
- two versions of lightbox addin, a simpler/more reliable and a fancier version
Moderation
- Can be enabled/disabled per category
WYSIWYG editor
- Available for add/edit/rate entry
Sorting
- By submitting user
User profile integration
- Lists user's latest entries as well as latest hits

Bugs fixed
- Attempts to access entries that have moved to another category trigger an HTTP 301 redirect
- Edits no longer trigger "new entry" message on category if latest date becomes earlier than user's last visit
- id3-handle plugins no longer kill LDM if getid3 subdirectory uploaded incorrectly
- Keywords can contain quotes
- Realmedia jukebox filetypes modified to avoid starting with characters 'rm '
- XHTML corrected in admin/settings pages

I would appreciate some testing from brave users who remember to back up their databases....

Hi Andrew :)

Can I suggest you create a new thread for the 3.6 version in the 3.6 hacks area and then put a freeze on 3.5 development (like you did with the 3.0 thread) .. Once 3.6 goes gold mind you ;)

Once it goes gold....

So far, I've only caught one area where we needed parallel versions of code, which was to handle the profilefields integration

awesome!

does this version help deal with the BLANK SCREEN upload problem some of are getting?

anyword on that btw?

I thought I had dealt with this - the other person reporting the problem had not installed the software correctly (partly my fault, because the code didn't pick up the mistake). The new version has some extra error checking built in for two situations where I could foresee problems. But it is possible that there are other problems at your site.

Oo you added more phrases to this version?

Need some spanish customisations? ^^

u.u don't know if i'm that brave... i'd love to wait till 3.6 is gold.
