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 you use only one module with the filter (ltoc IN (a,b,c)), then it will group all the categories into one display group.

I'll try to go through the whole vba installation process this weekend to get to the bottom of the other discussion.

I tried this but it seems that using a copy of ldm_new module doesnt show any links. I renamed the second copy of ldm_new to ldm_new_manga and uploaded it then made a new modul in vbadvanced using the different copy but it doesnt show anything in it.

On your site, I can see that this limit is being set explicitly to 5000 (log on to LDM as a registered user, do 'add entry', and click on the drop down 'uploadable filetypes and size limits). This is only possible if the vb attachment table says this or if the one of the php.ini variables upload_max_filesize and post_max_size is set to 5000. You've told us that the second is not the case, so it must be the first.

Get back to me if this does not resolve the problem - you'll need to change my account to 'admin' for me to do any more.

Thanks That was the error, that fixed uploading files

Just installed and now going through the settings in my control panel.

Is there suppose to be a link in the navbar for my members to use this program? I have a custom navbar and am worried that maybe the xml didn't install the code in the navbar if that's the case.

Thanks,
Gonzo

Anyone using this on their forumhome? I'd like to see it if so.

The instructions to do this is confusing me.
