I realised I forced all the table cells to have a fixed width except the right hand cell, so it gets squeezed. Will fix

If a member doesn't have access to view/download a link, the URL is currently absent. The user is shown the title of the link but don't understand why they cannot download it. This is confusing to members, because they don't understand why they cannot view/download the link. I propose you change this so the link is present, but the user is shown an customizable error message template instead. This will allow the admin to illustrate why the user cannot download the link and remove any confusion.

Keep up the good work Andrew !

Upgraded within 3 Minutes from 1.60c to 2.0.7rc (vB 3.0.7 - 3.5.1).

Thanks - this behaviour was introduced in response to another request. It depends on the value of *protected_link* on the admin/settings page:

0: no hyperlink shown
1: normal link, generates a 'no permission' + login template if no access available
2: link jumps to registration dialogue

The default value is 0.

I can add another option to offer a custom template (message + login + register?) if you think this is necessary.

hey andrew... just wondering if this is possible. xml feeds ... mainly i would like one for a users favorites page but for otherpages would be cool 2.

cheers mate

Feeds from somewhere else into LDM or feeds to somewhere else from LDM?

I think a custom message template is always better than vBulletins default error template. Users may see the default error, and often still don't understand why they cannot download the file/link. Further, if they register, as the vB error template suggests, and then still cannot download the file/link, they don't understand why they don't have permission.

from LDM

Andrew, how to put the last entries on the forumhome as well as the number please ?

* edited* 2.1.0 now the official release

I had promised that the release candidate of 2.0.7 would go final but people keep asking for more and more and more...

Attached is the release candidate for 2.1.0 (version number increased because more requests have been addressed). Please - Slave, Benj, Allan and others - can you test this out.

Since 2.0.7, the main changes have been made:

(for EasyTarget) The abbreviated/full linkbits have become available as user option, with a collapse bit on the links display
(for me) The admin category mass edit features have been extended considerably
(for Slave) Admin 'can_view_names' permission is distinguished from 'can_view_hits'
(for Allan) A new plugin patches the forumhome display so that latest link info appears for any forums which are actually category links
A Spanish translation is included (thanks Hugo)
(for BenJ) The release/add-in directory contains sample code for driving an XML feed to an external page
(for TundraSoul) 'No Permission' errors on link access are now handled via an LDM template and phrases

Bugs fixed:
> Category selector omits categories that current user cannot visit
> local_resize no longer glitches on remote files
> Empty upload filetype lists handled correctly
> Includes thumbnails in linkbit_table; image urls in thumbnails behave according to template
> SQL queries consistent across all functions (fixes search bugs reported by Slave)
> Category collapse state remembered correctly
> Various items tidied up a la Slave

Thanks - I'm hoping we're nearly there.
