vb.org Archive - Links and Downloads Manager

Here is the idea.

I have a site with subtitles, and sometimes I replace a subtitle with some corrections or changes. I use LDM and I see in the stats keeps the log of the downloads and users.

My problem is that if I make a change in the file the users they don?t know for that and I don?t have a way to inform them.

So my idea is if it?s possible to add in a future version of LDM the possibility to send a personal message for the change to all users that they download the specific file. I think that is useful and if it?s possible to add in the file description a field that it says the file version.

Thanks for listen me, I hope AndrewD that you find that is a great idea and to add it in future versions.

Let me make sure I understand you correctly.

When an entry in the LDM database is edited, you would like an option so that the person making the edit can send a message to all users who are recorded as having accessed/downloaded that entry.

In my site only the administrators have the possibility to upload files, not the users. So this is very useful for us.

Everything is working great on the stable version for me. I only have one problem and that is the announcer script that announces newest uploads in a certain forum. Mine works but it doesn't work on uploads that have to be moderated. Once the file is approved, there is still no mention of the file in the forum as being uploaded. Is there a way to fix this?

Cheers

I can't get any way for users to be able to upload any files, pictures, or anything. I have reviewed all the setting in LDM for this and still can't get anything. I don't see anything about uploading or upload files.

Am I missing something?

I'm getting pretty close to releasing this as the next stable release. Thanks.

is there a to change the little [+] for the lightbox to something else (more noticable) like a little magnifying glass image or something?

Hi Andrew,

I'm using the latest beta version and all is working perfectly. I'm just wondering about the max_textlength - does this not apply to link descriptions now that it's using the $messagearea instead of textarea?

I'd really love to limit the link description part. Is there still a way of doing this?

Thanks for all your work.

Nice hack. I can definetly tell you have put alot of effort into it. However I think the manual should break down the steps a little more. It was good up until the part where you have to set all this stuff then it gets extremely confusing for those who have no experience.
