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

I recently upgraded my forums from 3.07 to 3.6.8 and the ldm from version 1.6 to 2.2.8

I'm having a problems with being able to edit an entry - even entries that I've submitted. I'm getting 2 different results on 2 different computers both of which using Firefox, so I'm not sure where the problem lies.

On one computer, when I click on the edit icon, a box pops up wanting me to save local_links.php

On the other one, it takes me to a blank page

What could be the cause of this?

hey hey long time over here. :)

ok weird problem/bug

1. no matter what I do I can't get the enlarged original pic to work. it worked once and used to work long time ago, but ever since the last few updates: LDM posts the thumbs, but no magnifying glass and no full size image (which is too bad as that was good seo for me :( )

I haven't made any template edits or extra mod (all via ldm admin)

any ideas what could be causing the problem?

2. also, found a bug.... once you choose "only for this category" for an upload... you can't get it back to "for all categories".

ps. that said, LDM is still add-on leet PWNAGE!! andrew still has best support and mod around :)

Although this is almost certainly not the underlying problem, since you are getting different results on different pcs, have you tried flushing the browser cache and have you tried with different browsers.

Which linkbit are you using? If you are using the standard (Modern) linkbit, check that these lines appear about 20 lines into the links_linkbit template

Code:

<if condition="$linkimgmag">

<br />

<div style="margin-top:3px"><span class="smallfont">$linkimgmag</span></div>

</if>

Also check that the links_imgmag template exists and looks like this:

Code:

<if condition="$linkimg">

<a href="$RESIZE_SCRIPT.php?linkid=$linkid&amp;size=<if condition="$links_defaults[link_imagemagsize]">$links_defaults[link_imagemagsize]<else />0</if>" rel="lightbox[show]" target="_blank" title="$vbphrase[ll_enlarge_thumb]">

<if condition="$ldm_icon_cache['magnify']"><img border="0" src="$ldm_icon_cache[magnify]" alt="$vbphrase[ll_enlarge_thumb]" /><else />[+]</if></a>

</if>

You means the 'display order' setting? I can't reproduce this problem.

I have successfully installed 2.2.8 on vb 3.6.8. After that I imported my database. (New server)
Now I get this error:

Quote:

The following setting(s) are invalid
upload_dir : /forum/links/downloads/
Cannot access or create directory /forum/links/downloads/ [/var/www/html/forum/links/downloads/forum/links/downloads/]

The path to the download DIR is /domains/mydomain/public_html/forum/links
I tried entering the full path into upload_dir but that doesn't help. Please advise.

when i enabled upload feature, and tried to create an entry using uploading file, i get:
Upload error - unable to move the uploaded file on server.

What could this problem be? The file upload dir has 777 perm. Where is LDM trying to move the file to? Thanks.

you need to make the dir's perm 777.

I thought that I had coded all the necessary checks on this - but

- Is your server running php in safe mode.
- Does your server have restrictions on the php open_basedir

(You can check both of these on the left column of the main LDM admin pages)
