About templates, is it possible to add more linkbits? :p

I modified the short and the normal linkbit, but i would like to use your current short also. :D

Greetings

This is possible but requires changes to the code. It is something that I have intended to make easily available via the LDM/admin pages at some stage, but never quite finished.

Basically, you do the following:

- create a new template within your vbulletin/admincp, for example called links_mylinkbit
- edit includes/local_links_admininclude.php
- find a group of lines (around line 550) which look like this:

- add a new line with slightly changed values, e.g.

- if you take a look at the comments in the code, you can probably work out what the other parameters do.

- re-install the LDM product installer.
- the new template will then be available in the same way as other LDM linkbits

OK?

bug :
when synchronise category with folder and this folder contain subfolders , it will not add any entries from subfolders even i make the sync_depth = 2 or 3 or 100

i choose sync_populate_categories "no"

sync_populate_entries "yes"

it is only add entries from the folder but not subfolders under it

Or just this simple query:
[SQL]INSERT INTO `FORUM`.`LOCAL_linksadmin` (`settingname`, `setting`, `sequence`, `rowtype`, `rowtitle`, `canoverride`, `catid`) VALUES ('links_linkbit_movie', 'a:4:{s:4:"name";s:5:"Movie";s:6:"defcol";i:1;s:6: "maxcol";i:4;s:6:"subbit";s:15:"links_subcatbit";} ', 50011, 'define_linkbit', '', 1, -1);
[/SQL]

Where FORUM is your forum table and LOCAL_ is your LDM table prefix
This query adds Movie template_linkbit which points to links_linkbit_movie template,
If you want to change your template_linkbit name you have to change 5 ( exact before :"Movie" ) to your template_linkbit display name's length

Edit: You have to add linksbit_linkbit_movie template manually
Please BACKUP your linksadmin table before executing this query or test on your local/test forum

also another bug :
duplicate entries when use manual synchronise , this occure sometimes !

I suppose this is a question of definition. It's doing what you told it to do. If sync_populate_categories is set to no, the synchronisation code resyncs the current directory/category but does not track through subdirectories/subcategories. If you have manually created synced subcategories (or created them automatically, then switch off sync_populate_categories), these are resynced when someone visits them.

Be careful - patching the admin table will work but it's not guaranteed to continue to work following an upgrade.

I've never seen this. I'll be keen to see a reproducible case, if possible.

i want to explain more :

i have one category and i just need to enter all files that in a folder and about 100 subfolders in the same category , i did not need to make subcategory for each subfolder

so in this case it is not work

about duplicate content
when i wrote the folder as /folder/
it will not duplicate
but when i write /folder without training slash
it give me duplicate entries

also the template for description of the entries is not work to give automatic description for entries !


suggestion:
1.multiple templates for choose of them , for description of entries
2.specific template for specific category "show"

OK, these are extensions to the current functionality. I'll look into how they might be implemented and let you know.
