What this is and does

LDM is a general-purpose link and file manager, which handles user uploads and downloads in a flexible way. A range of media players is integrated into LDM and others are included as plugin extras. LDM is described below in the first post of this thread, which also contains a brief list of the currently-known bugs.

This release of LDM works correctly with all VB versions 3.6.x and recent versions of vbadvanced.

Documentation, screen shots, etc, are provided as a Wiki at http://www.eirma.org/wikis/index.php...nloads_Manager

Thank you to everyone who has tested, given suggestions, helped with the translations, etc.

If i put this on the URL of my browser.

http://www.yoursite.com/local_links.php?action=addlink&url=URLINK&name=NAMETEXT&description=DESCRIPTIONTEXT

It will fill all the fields. I am wondering if you have a guide or a list of all the supported URL actions somewhere.

And finaly if I can create and submit a new link from URL (not from button in the form)

Thank's

I'll try to document these in the wiki - I haven't given much time to that.

Currently, it isn't possible to process full submissions/edits/etc from the url - I think this would be a security risk?

Reports please.

I'd very much appeciate it if the translators can now start work - there are some new phrases that need attention. Thanks.

Downloaded

I''l take a look at phrases a little later.

I can see where this happens - it is a bug which is easy to fix - but I'm surprised - it seems to suggest an unexpected mixture of access permissions (basically, LDM seems to be discovering that all its suggested entries are blocked from the current user). Is this happening with all the 'suggest similar' buttons?

[Slave]

Seems to be .. yes.

I only get the big mysql error as admin, with my test users I just get the standard vb "A database error" page.

Hey,

LDM always creates a directory named 2 into specified upload directory and stores all files there. Is this the way it's supposed to be, or am I missing something here?

Yes, this is correct.

It creates subdirectories in the upload directory, of the form /each/digit/of/your/user/id, and then places the uploaded files there

This is the same behaviour as vbulletin, and is done to try to avoid having directories with vast numbers of files in them.

[NiteRidah]

Ah, ofcourse. Thank you for the quick reply
