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.

I think part of your problem is that you've wrapped LDM in the vbadvanced code without including all the key bits from the links_header template. Others have made that mistake too. You've lost the LDM javascript, so (for example) popup windows don't work.

You need these two lis in your hearer:

<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/ldm_global.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/ldm_ajax_keysugg.js"></script>

ive done this now. i presume you mean the header template under style manager?

it seems to have made a difference but hasnt fixed it. it opens the rest of the page with it still when it opens up the wimpy player popup. it does though now open up a smaller box rather than full window

many thanks for your time and glad ya like the site

Andrew,

1. I've got it all working, plays wmv & mov play perfect, but when I try mp3, wav, doesn't play, those were files I had so not able to test any more.

2. I've uploaded a thumbnail with all files, see nothing displayed though they uploaded.

3. When I hit the download arrow, I get a new window open with this garble (whole page)

I'm running my own Unix server, fyi, VB 3.6.4 with Vbadvanced latest version. This is a brand new site I'm working on, so not a lot on it right now as we haven't broadcast it. Thanks, rg.

Have you set up entres for wmv, mp3, wav, wma, mov in your vbulletin attachments table (vb/admincp/attachments/attachmemnt manager)? You need definitions for each of these filetypes plus mimetype info. Choose from the following:

"asf" => "Content-type: video/x-ms-asf"
"avi" => "Content-type: video/avi"
"bmp" => "Content-type: image/bmp"
"divx" => "Content-type: video/divx"
"doc" => "Content-type: application/vnd.msword"
"flv" => "Content-type: application/x-shockwave-flash"
"gif" => "Content-type: image/gif"
"jpe" => "Content-type: image/jpeg"
"jpeg" => "Content-type: image/jpeg"
"jpg" => "Content-type: image/jpeg"
"m3u" => "Content-type: application/m3u"
"mov" => "Content-type: video/quicktime"
"mpg" => "Content-type: video/mpeg"
"mpeg" => "Content-type: video/mpeg"
"mp3" => "Content-type: audio/mpeg"
"pdf" => "Content-type: application/pdf"
"png" => "Content-type: image/png"
"pps" => "Content-type: application/vnd.ms-pps"
"ppt" => "Content-type: application/vnd.ms-ppt"
"qt" => "Content-type: video/quicktime"
"ram" => "Content-type: audio/x-pn-realaudio"
"ra" => "Content-type: audio/vnd.rn-realaudio"
"rm" => "Content-type: audio/x-realaudio"
"rv" => "Content-type: video/vnd.rn-realvideo"
"rmvb" => "Content-type: video/x-realaudio"
"rpm" => "Content-type: audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin"
"swf" => "Content-type: application/x-shockwave-flash"
"txt" => "Content-type: plain/text"
"wav" => "Content-type: audio/wave"
"wma" => "Content-type: video/x-ms-wma"
"wmv" => "Content-type: video/x-ms-wmv"
"xls" => "Content-type: application/vnd.msexcel"
"zip" => "Content-type: application/zip"

Yes, my difficulty is that I don't know exactly what changes you've made. The standard vb release opens a correctly sized jukebox window with none of the extra material you've added.

Andrew,

Thanks for your help. I double checked 1, 2, & 3, all done. Though on one you say "definitions." I basically put the file extension in the box, i.e., mp3 (with no period) then in the mime box, audio/mpeg if that's what you mean?

On #4, not sure. I've sent you a pm with info to check if you have time. Thanks, rg.

Not quite: in the mime box, you put "Content-type: audio/mpeg" etc

Working now, on images, thumbs, etc., can get them on any browser type, will check file paths, etc., though they uploaded fine. Did get this error message when I try and open up image link in another window:

Rolando, I think you missed out the url in the pm you sent me.

Sorry about that, can you upload the attached modified file into your forums directory

[rolandogomez]

Darn you're good! Works like a charm! Thanks, rg.
