The 3.8 version of LDM is marked as reusable code. This means that any coder can take up this project and prevent LDM going to waste. It would be a shame that after all the years of work and dedication Andrew has put into it, it could no longer be used.

It remains to be seen how long this version of LDM keeps working, after new vbulletin versions are released.

Amen fo that. :)

any one can update this plz

Can anyone give me a hint:
My users rate a link, and comment it.
But only the rating is stored, the comment is not stored and "no comment" is displayed next to the rating.

Cant find any reason why this happens

Does LDM still work with vb4.0.8 ?

Seems to be working but styles are getting more tricky, unfortunately it's time to move into another download manager. :(

DownloadsII just got competition with vBDownloads v1.0.0 (Lite).

I talked to the makers of vBDownloads and they are going to work on an importer for L&D. If this can be provided, it would take a lot of stress off my shoulders.

Currently vbdownloads doesn't have a more than a fraction of the functions. It would be great if they would add the most important functions, but since LDM is a massive product, I think it will take a long time before there is any replacement.

Yes, however, functions don't mean much if LDM no longer works because it's no longer compatible with vBulletin. No one has stepped up to take over this project, unfortunately, so for those of us who run a business and earn income off our downloads, functionality is second choice.

I do not refer to any trivial functionality. You would be right in that regard.

LDM works well for now, but this may change for future releases of vbulletin. Until there are other solutions that offer most of the vital functionality that LDM has, I'm not moving my site to any vb version that doesnt support LDM.
