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.

Hi Andrew,

can you fix a small template issue coming up when the description is very long?

In the modern view first and second column should get align="top"

Hi

I have one question:

I am using LDM in my forum as the following structure

www.mysite.com/forum/local_links.php

Now I want to move my forum to

www.mysite.com/portal/forum

(www.mysite.com/portal/forum/local_links.php)

Is this possible ? Do i have to change settining or do I have to reinstall LDM?

Thanks

Hello Andrew:

I just upgrade to 2.2.6 and every time some one is using the LDM I get a e-mail with the following error:

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.0:

Invalid SQL:

UPDATE vb_session
SET lastactivity = 1156697276, location = '', inforum = 0, inthread = 0, incalendar = 0, badlocation = 0
WHERE sessionhash = '';

The links work but I get the message.

Thanks!

When I try to save LDM settings I get prompted to download the page instead.

Also when people click on links to download they get a white page and it takes forever to download or they get an error message.

Inside the linkbit template, the linkid is available in the variable $linkid, so you can easily edit the template to display the image at a different size. Just put in an <img> tag pointing to this url.

OH, sweet, thaks Andrew, i'll try this weekend... well, i wish you have a great vacation... maybe you don't realize, but you have had the best support i've seen in any vB mod, thank you. :bunny:

I just upgraded my forums to 3.6 and upgraded the ldm to 2.6. beta1 and I reported this error to vbulletin.com

One of the products which I have installed is called the Links and Downloads manager. The product works fine, however when I am finished downloading a file and click on the forum link on the navbit I get the following error:

Warning: mysql_real_escape_string(): 6 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /includes/class_core.php on line 648

I use avant browser and confirmed that I receive this error in Internet Explorer as well (Avant is based on IE), however when using Firefox the error does not occur.

I reported it to them because when I searched the thread I found another error based on class_core.php and you asked the person to report it to them as it had something to do with unset array elements in the vB code. The support people said this was more or less correct but that

The error is from third party code not correctly using vBulletin classes and functions.

I rolled back to 2.2.5 and it works fine.
