Not sure what you've done wrong, but you don't need the separate html page to manage access to these pdf files. LDM does this directly. This is what you do:

- Create (or choose) one of your VB forums that is only available to your registered users
- Create an LDM category, and on the category creation form, select the protected VB forum.
- Create entries in that forum pointing to each of your pdf files.

These are then accessible only to your registered users.

Happy to give more help if needed.

Andrew is it possible to put a limit on the size of the description?
Companies are taking the mickey a bit and putting over long adverts in there.

<max_textlength> in LDM/admin/settings - the security and user access section - that should do the trick. Currently, this is an 'all or nothing' setting - you can't place different limits on entries in different categories. You might also give people a gentle encouragement in the message you put in <use_instructions> in the same part of the LDM admin/settings page.

Site: http://oops-hq.us If using the Default style, clicking the "What's New" button at the bottom of the center column opens the list. However, if using any other style, you can see about a 1 or 2px line change, but no list. What do I need to change to correct this?

Can't say without looking, and you seem to have changed the password you sent me...

Sorry...forgot I'd reset that. Fixed. :) Thanks, Andrew!

Hi Andrew posted a screenshot there for you, what I meant by the question is that all the page titles in the <title> tag are the same.

So you can see in the screenshot that I'm viewing a file called Stuart Mckeown - Stucast003

Therefore the title tag should be something like:

<title>Stuart McKeown - Stucast003 - Category Name - Board Name</title>

It puts the category names in the title tag fine, just doesn't include the actual file name. Does this help explain it a bit better? :)

Also I'd quite like to see FTP upload with a Progress Bar. I've got people trying to upload 200mb sets but it just times out on them after an hour or so. So it'd be nice to see how long you have left to upload with a nice progress bar etc :)

Keep up the good work!

Stuart

Thanks - this will be in 2.2.7 when available (alpha 1 in a few days, I hope)

Yes, I know what you mean... I gave this som ethought before - probably the easiest and most robust solution is to offer an optional addon to one of the Java uploader scripts

hi andrew. first up thanks for a great release. i dont like installing too many addons to my forums. esp large changes as if the support and updates went from then id be basically screwed lol

from what ive seen of your plugin and the eager to help people out with there problems i didnt think twice before sticking it on. it definetley is one of the finest additions to vbulletin so well done :)

now to my problem lol

i have bought wimpy player for my forum and im hoping to have the ldm system working as a simple mp3 streamer for mp3 files.

the problem i have is that for one the wimpy player flash button is great but it doesnt stop playing when another one is clicked on the same page can u think of a way to solve this?. also if u navigate from the page it stops altho the nature of flash i can understand having to live with that.

the other issue is that if you have over about 15/20 entries per page or more the page loading and scrolling etc slows down to a crawl you can see what i mean here

id rather not have only 15 per page as my archive is going to be full of hundreds of mp3's, is there a way of solving these problems

of course i understand if because of wimpy and constraints with the flash buttons etc this isnt possible.

if this is the case could ya let me know as i will change it over to non wimpy buttons and then explain and show you some of the problems i have doing things with the built in player, hopefully ya will be able to give me some advise on how i can get it functioning as i would like

many thanks andrew and keep up the good work :D

I see what you mean - I think the page load speed is probably because of all the wimpy buttons - I'll take a look into it and see if there's a way of overcoming this and your other problem.
