Major Additions - Links and Downloads Manager

Version 2.3.0 of LDM is now the official release. This works with both VB3.7 and VB3.8. You can obtain it here

Version 2.2.8 remains available here, with limited support.

04.02.08: patch-cat.xml 'extra' uploaded - see first post for information

27.10.07: Version 2.2.8-post1 uploaded
French translation of product installer uploaded (other language translations are in the main release zip)

Remember to back up your current database tables before upgrading.

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 haven't enough information to go on. Do you want to send me a PM with board details + ideally an admin account?

Yes, I'm logged on...

I know where the problem is - I'm trying to log downloads after these have completed - by which time your database server has dropped the connection. I've turned off the 'hit recording' for LDM, which I hope will now fix the problem for the time being. Full fix in the next upload. Let me know how things go.

thanks so much

So is this good to go on a fresh install of 3.6 gold? I use an older version on a different board running 3.5.4 and love it.

The RC version is more or less ok. There are some minor bugs which I have fixed on my test site, and the final release will be uploaded (I imagine) this weekend..

What a wonderful site!

I think the problem with over-writing the templates only happens when the add-in version number changes. As we are staying with version 2.2.5, you shoul dbe ok. But I'll check, just to be sure.
