I like the new admin interface in LDM 2.3.0 - particularly then new layout for linkbits/catbits and the new page for LDM Plugins.
Suggestion: on the LDM Plugins page, can you provide a function to delete selected extra LDM mods - some of them have 10+ plugins so it would save time, especially when testing. Instead of deleting each plugin individually, I'm currently using Mysql directly to delete them at once with one statement.

Note: You'll probably have to update the LDM Plugins page to support the LDM Extras Plugins product/script (to allow updating LDM without requiring reinstalling LMD extra plugins) that I sent you.

I have 2 bugs to report for LDM 2.3.0-beta1 used in VB 3.8.0-beta1:

1. Shadowbox shows the thumbnail and not the original image for entries with thumbnails that are different from the original image.

2. Clicking on a category name pops up its description instead of linking the user to the category entries listing page. I believe in LDM 2.2.9-post1, the description pops up only when clicking on the arrow. Since the category name doesn't link to the category entries listing page, the user if forced to use the category jump menu (if enabled) or go to LDM's home page.

Features Request for next LDM version:

1. Auto tagging using entry’s title
2. Domain Blacklist for link entries
3. Multiple Links Domain Whitelist – enable whitelist for domains that can have multiple link entries
4. allow animated gif’s to be used as thumbnails

Just wanted to submit some ideas, but I know you're busy Andrew with fixing/ updating LDM 2.3.0 to release a stable version. Thanks for all your contributions :D

1. The inline 2.3.0 JWPlayer does not work with LDM 2.3.0 and VB 3.8 - the inline players do not even show up in both IE7 & FF2. So I reverted back to the 2.2.9 JWPlayer and debugged it. A temporary workaround is to substitute the ldm_get_entrybits function from LDM 2.2.9-post1 into the 2.3.0-beta1 /includes/local_links_include.php file. There's one change you need to do in that file to get JWPlayer to work - find $musicbox_seo and change it to: $musicbox_seo = ldm_seo_url("play", $linkcatid, $linkid, 0, $pagenumber);
I wouldn't be surprised if the ldm_get_entrybits substitution would cause some other feature not to function. Andrew, can you please let me know what code in that function I need to change in the 2.3.0-beta1 local_links_include.php so the JWPlayers can work correctly?

2. I can not get the 2.3.0 Shadowbox to work with LDM 2.3.0 & VB 3.8 in both IE7 & FF2. So I reverted back to the 2.2.9 Shadowbox and debugged it. A temporary workaround is to use the 2.2.9-post1 local_links_players.php file with LDM 2.3.0. There's one change you need to do in that file to get Shadowbox to work - change all occurrences (4) of $master_settings to $ldm_master_settings. Andrew, can I continue to use the 2.2.9-post1 local_links_player.php in the LDM 2.3.0 installation or will that cause some conflicts with other features?

I remain bemused. I have installed the 2.3.0 beta on a clean version of vb 3.8 and both the shadowbox and inline players are working fine for me with ie7, ff2, ff3, google chrome and opera 9.6. Ditto with vb 3.7. Any more hints you can give me?

Differences between 2.2.9 and 2.3.0 versions of includes/local_links_player.php are minor.

- master_settings is renamed ldm_master_settings
- protocol_schemes is renamed ldm_protocol_schemes
- call to ldm_get_mimetype replaced by called to ldm_known_filetype
- calls to vb function iif(x,y,z) replaced by ternary (x ? y : z)
- default howtostream in function get_ldm_playerbit() includes code to handle optional security tag and vbulletin session id

Differences between ldm_get_entrybits() are major, and transplanting the code will certainly break a number of other features.

Thanks for the update Andrew. Hopefully, we can figure out the exact code that's causing the problems for those 2 plugins.

Were you testing JWPlayer with Flash 10? Someone earlier mentioned that may be an issue.... probably not, but don't know (BTW, I'm using Flash 10).

Both 9 and 10 seem ok for me.

The cat_desc_popup bug requires a small template edit (links_catbit) - change:

Code:

        <td align="$stylevar[left]" valign="middle" id="catfull$catid">
        <span class="smallfont">
<if condition="$catnew">
        <strong><a href="$catseo">$catname</a></strong>
<else />
        <a href="$catseo">$catname</a>
</if>
</span>
<if condition="$links_defaults[cat_desc_popup] and $cattext">
        &nbsp;<script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("catfull$catid"); </script>
</if>
        </td>

to

Code:

        <td align="$stylevar[left]" valign="middle">
<if condition="$links_defaults[cat_desc_popup] and $cattext">
        <div id="catfull$catid" style="float:$stylevar[left]"><script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("catfull$catid"); </script></div>
</if>
        <span class="smallfont">
<if condition="$catnew">
        <strong><a href="$catseo">$catname</a></strong>
<else />
        <a href="$catseo">$catname</a>
</if>
</span>
        </td>

does the comment actually contain some text? blank comments are not counted.

I can't add an categorie with this file. When I add a categorie, I have a page empty and the categorie is not added.

When you create the entry using the add/edit entry form, fill in the image field with the (local) url of the image file you want to use. It will still create independent thumbnail files for each entry, but these files are usually small by comparison with the master image.

I cannot reproduce this error.

Which options are you selecting on the add category form. Also, try turning off 'GZIP HTML Output' option on vb/admincp/options/cookies and http headers

Right ok.

It's not a vbadvanced issue with this mod - it's a vbadvanced issue full stop. If you send me full ftp access info for your server, I'll take a look for you.

I meant...

What can I do about this vBadvanced issue... with this mod. If that makes sense.

Ok I'll PM you.

DJDrew 10-25-2008 11:57 AM

I'm also having some trouble with some MP3 files. Some of them are playing fine with the JW Player but some just aren't even loading.

Not sure whether its my computer, my server or the script.

IrPr 10-25-2008 12:33 PM

@vbboarder

Whats wrong with JWPlayer exactly? is it LDM generation issue or not, it generates html codes well but no SWFObject will create?
if 2nd, paste your JW's SWFObject/html code here to be checked out

The player loads fine and so do some MP3's but others won't load. But the player still opens up.

DJDrew 10-25-2008 01:36 PM

When I click "Download" on the popup it comes up with:

"Sorry - entry is not currently available". Any reason why LDM would do this?

Because it can no longer find the file/url

abdelghani68 10-25-2008 04:36 PM

I have a feature request :

Can we have an attribut where we can add an 'entree combines'.

For exemple if I have an entree (pdf) nomme 'the book vbulletin' in the categorie book, and an entree (mp3) 'the audio vbulletin' in the categorie audio', I can add an attribut in the entree 'the book vbulletin' where we can see in 'miniature' or a display for that, the entree 'the audio vbulletin'.

Thanks

Hmmm strange. I used LDM to upload the files so I dont know which file it was.

Hmmm, jumpy item working seems querystring special characters issue to me

In a playlist if one item contains ? or = or & characters it wont be loaded ( just that item ) and the same for single item without playlist

these chrs must be replaced with:
  1. ? → %3F
  2. = → %3D
  3. & → %26
Which can be done easily by str_replace() in php or encodeURIComponent() in JS

Example: http://w00t.tld/a&b.mp3 should be http://w00t.tld/a%26b.mp3 to be loaded by JW MP3 Player

There's a whole admin page in LDM to find and deal with problems like this ldm/admin/mass edits), although it needs careful use.

An uploaded file can become 'broken' if you subsequently change the main admin security settings *local_file_root* and *local_file_root_prefix*

Did you plan to give me ftp/admin access to your site to sort out the vbadvanced problem?

DJDrew 10-26-2008 01:13 PM

Hello,

I'll set it up shortly.

For some reason most of my files seem to have been deleted somehow.

DJDrew 10-26-2008 01:19 PM

Yep - there all gone. All the files that I uploaded using the mod have gone. Why would this happen?

Andrew,


Can you possibly check the SWF Uploader and the whimpy plug-in extras with flash player 10, I'm curious now why they will run on some machines and not others?

As reported quite widely, swf upload 2.1 (the version provided with LDM) does not work with flash 10. The site has just posted a new beta which is supposed to work with flash 10, so I'll do some checking.

Wimpy button also seems broken with flash 10.

abdelghani68 10-27-2008 04:19 PM

All of my files are in my server. But I don't understand why it's write in the module vba statistique 0 koctets for the space :

Thanks for the confirmation, Flash player 10 has broken allot of the dated SWF based programs.

You have two problems.

- The French language file contains an old and incorrect phrase - it should say 'Transf?r?' rather than 'Espace disque utilis?' - i.e the vba module is trying to report the number of bytes downloaded, not the number of bytes stored.

- You have also given all usergroups the LDM permission *can_bypass_bandwidth_limits*. This means that the "Hit recording" process treats all accesses as being 0 bytes long (i.e. no bandwidth used). For this reason, your vba module reports "0 bytes" transferred.

DJDrew 10-29-2008 10:05 AM

I'm now having other problems.

When I try to upload a mp3, after it has finished uploading it goes to "this page cannot be displayed" and doesn't add to the downloads section.

Any reason why this would happen?

This is probably because the upload is taking too long and your system is timing out.

This can happen when the files are large and your site's configuration (php and web server settings) is not adequate to handle the transfer.

Provided you have Adobe Flash version 9 installed (version 10 does not work with it), there's an 'add on' in the extras dircetory of the release - swfuploader - which handles the upload differently with a progress bar. You could give that a try.

Hey,

Thanks for that, installed the add-on and seems to have resolved the issue.

Strange how I wasn't having the problem before and I'm suddenly getting it. Odd.

DJDrew 10-29-2008 04:55 PM

I seem to have lost a load of the files again.

Whats going on?
