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.

In "edit module" section there are options you can copy the module. You can try it.

Yes you can - I believe that ItsBlack's approach works, as does importing the module a second time and, when the system warns you about a filename conflict for the code, just adding another character to the filename.

I assume that your cmps_index.php file is not in your forums directory. This is a bug on my side - will be fixed in code to be uploaded later today.

Are you using a translation of the phrases?

Take a look at the ldm_thread_create_relink phrase (vbulletin/languages). I think you'll find ann extra "x" has crept in.

The parameters on
ldm/admin/settings/Controls on Media Files and Jukebox control the overall window sizes.

The Jukebox sreen can be adjusted by going to ldm/admin/mediaplayers. For each of the players, you'll see items like:

player_width="320", player_height="240",

Edit these - be careful to keep the syntax right (these are php array element definitions).

Thank you!

I've uploaded a bug fix release to correct the irritating bugs reported in version 2.2.7. I'd appreciate a few tests before making this the new official code. The bug fixes relate to:

- Date/time fixes for languages that use different formatting routines
- Fixed geographical space warp when DST is in force
- "Accept me" forms no longer resize screen
- Wimpy Wasp Flash Player works again
- vbAdvanced modules fixed to work when vba home page is not in forums directory and to show correct number of 'What's Hot/New'
- Fix for unintended and erroneous 'category permission over-rides' after category settings edit
- Fix for Add category/update display order in this category only
- Fix for illegal function calls in moderate/delete entry
- Fix for sql error with admin/debug
- Advanced Search text and user boxes are now standard text inputs rather than textboxes
