If you take a look at LDM/admin/import and export, see if the Scan Directory feature is what you were looking for - it will basically do a directory search and auto create the entries for you.

*request* this might have been requested before but maybe custom fields for links / downloads ?

I think something like this is needed, but I need to think through how to do this cleanly.

Thanks.

Hi Andrew, did you come up with an idea on this?

Bear with me - I've been travelling and in meetings for the last week and there's a few other things to deal with to get 2.0.6 properly released. I'll try to give you an answer in a few days.

This instruction somewhat confuses me.

When I go to Language Manager --> Upload Langugage, i am encountered with following option:

--> Overwrite Language : What should i select from drop-down menu? Should i create a new language? Would overwriting language have any implications?

Please guide me.

Regards

If you want just a single language installation of LDM, then install it using one of the three product loaders, i.e. product_eirma_ldm.xml (English), product_eirma_ldm_fr.xml (French) or product_eirma_ldm_de.xml (German)

If you run a multi-language board and you have already installed the main French or German Vbulletin translation, then you can 'add on' the LDM phrases into that language - VBulletin -> Admincp -> Download/Upload Languages -> Upload Language -> Overwrite Language (French/German). This will *include* the additional phrases and will not destroy what was already there.

Thanks for sharing this hack, Andrew.

One question. I´ve already installed LDM in english, tried to switch to german and to import the german-language via the phrase-manager - but it keeps on telling me "This file only contains phrases, but none of the necessary values. It´s not possible to create a new language with this file".
Even with the option "Overwrite" anabled.

Any help aprecciated - any ideas ?

Which file are you trying to import into the German language? With the language installer, you should use development/phrases/phrases_de.xml. The product installer in release/product-eirma_ldm_de.xml is used if you simply want to install one language (i.e. German).

I've juyst tried this and it seems to work ok to me. Let me know if you still have problems.

Thanks for your fast reply, Andrew.

I did it exactly the way as you described it. But still no go..
May be you?ve got some extra time to join me in the chat room ?
