I don't get what this hack is.

I want to offer mp3's, ebooks and programs to my members on the forum. Will this allow them to access a 'shop' to get them.

Can you charge them for the downloads individually, like with points or something?

Could anyone explain for me?

Thanks.

Don't know if this would work as a shop script, but certainly it is able to distribute almost any kind of content to your users, and you can set limits to them, and also force them to do some kind of things before they are able to get a file or link.

Though, there is not a points system that works with LDM.

Sure Andrew will tell you a lot more about it.

Thanks

This is happening because your entries have different values assigned for their 'Display Order' (Add/Edit Entry form). I agree that it is not needed on the vba interfaces, and will correct in version 2.2.8.

In the meantime, you can eliminate these bars completely (including in the main LDM displays) by editing the links_linkseparator template. Simply empty that template in your main style. It's a little trickier to do this just in the vba page, and it's probably easiest to wait for 2.2.8.

The hack provides you with a way of giving your users managed access to your files or to their own. It can control things like access permissions, bandwidth use, and the like. It does not have a points system built in, nor any e-trading. However, you could easily integrate it with a standard e-commerce system (I use Payloadz) to integrate with a PayPal account.

a) the standard process with 2.2.8 code worked fine
b) when I tried killing the linkthread value, the standard release code did not work, for reasons I understand, but the simplified regular expression worked just fine.

I saw that you've modified the ldm_thread_create_relink message, which is what is generated/tested. In your version, there are extra bbcodes inside the thread bbcode, but even so, the following code:

Code:

        elseif ($forumid>0 and preg_match("/\[thread=(\d+)\]/", $row['linkdesc'], $match)) {
picks up the threadid fine.

Thank you Andrew. Sorry for the delay, due to some reason I couldn't use the internet last week.

Now the problem is the comment doesn't work with thread even the entry has a threadid. It seems the problem only occurs by me, I'm confused. Anything else should I notice?

Finally, I think I find the reason.

It's about "autocreate_forum". The discription said "Forum in which to post thread. Leave blank to use category's associated forum." But it does not! For I have several different categories associated with different forums, so I left this option blank. And as you see, the comments doesn't work with thread. I noticed that the script will first check the forumid, so I tried set the default autocreate_forum with one forum, now it works!

That means, in order to add comments to the thread, we must assign the autocreate_forum: either in the general setting or in the individual category setting.

OK, I think that must be a bug :) Sorry to waste your time. I'll look into this tonight.

No, no, you don't need say sorry. I can understand, because LDM is a big project, you have done your best. I'm glad I can help you somehow.

Thanks Andrew, you've always been so helpful :)

Hello, hello... i'm wondering if i already asked for help on the next issue? :p

I was wondering if there is way, where i can upload images, and once the user clicks to download or watch the original file, this one is diplayed inside a page that uses somekind of linkbit template to add some instructions on how to download or save the file.

I think I have had this on my mind for months... so I was wondering if i ever asked for help. :D

Thanks!

BTW, Andrew, maybe you could signup for a google adsense account and add some banners inside your wiki... that way i could click some cents to you from time to time. :p
