I'm having trouble with the installation of the mod as I'm not sure where to upload into 'the corresponding forum directories.'

Here's what I did:

- I put the content of the includes and the clientscript folders in the appropriate forum directories.

- I wasn't sure where to put the release/forums/local php files, though, so I put them under the main forum directory. (?)

- I did the same with the release/vba_modules folder.

Not sure where to upload the release/extras folder and the tests folder.


When I tried to install the xml files via vB, I got the following messages:

Warning: Unknown(/home/rawfree/public_html/forum/includes/local_links_init.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /admincp/plugin.php(1941) : eval()'d code on line 3

Fatal error: (null)() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/rawfree/public_html/forum/includes/local_links_init.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/rawfree/public_html/forum/admincp/plugin.php(1941) : eval()'d code on line 3

Please advice!

Thanks,

Happy to help.

The error message is telling you that it can't find the file local_links_init.php in the forum/includes directory.

The directory structure in the release/ part of the zip file is *exactly* the same as the directory structure for vbulletin. This is where things should go:

- in your main forums directory:
local_links.php
local_links_actions.php
local_links_admin..php
local_links_ajax.php
local_links_search.php
local_resize.php
local_stream.php

- in your forums/clientscript directory
ldm_ajax_doisugg.js
ldm_ajax_keysugg.js
ldm_global.js

- in your forum/includes directory
local_links_admininclude.php
local_links_include.php
local_links_misc.php
local_links_players.php
local_links_resize.php

- in your forums/include/xml directory
cpnav_xlinks.xml
hooks_ldm.xml

There's then one decision you need to make yourself - where to put the contents of the release/icons directory. I suggest you create a directory called forum/ldmicon

You do not upload the vba_modules directory - you only need these if you are using vbadvanced, and vbadvanced modules are installed via the vba installation process, not uploaded.

If you still have problems, send me a PM and I'll be glad to help.
