Major Additions - Links and Downloads Manager

Version 2.2.8 remains available here, with limited support.

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 think you need to select 'no' for the Process PHP File Modules Within A Function setting in vba default settings page.

Hi!
Suggestion for next release:

Admin should be able to delete certain entries of a user downloaded list.
And will be helpfully add a textbox where you can enter username and see download history.

Thanks
Regards!

Hey Andrew, can you explain this? (attachments)

If this can't work, I can't translate it in French.

local_file_root = No
local_file_root_prefix = '' (empty)

I looked at this but I couldnt do anything

I'm using 3.6.8 abd LDM 2.2.8...

1 - When I enter vBa ACP which one should I choose to add module?

[BB Code] , [Template] , [PHP File]

2 - When I choose [Template] or [PHP File], I am not sure what to write or what to do...

Quick break from my vacation.....

Are you using vba 2.x or 3.x? In 3.x, you install the .module file using the vba admin Download/Upload module page. I think it was the same with vba 2.x, but can't remember and don't have the software with me.

[apokphp]

the vba module for newly added links, doesn't appear to work on my just updated board, now using vb 3.6.8 and vbacmps 3.0. I'm thinking it was vba 3.0 compatibility that is the issue. Can anyone verify?

When the module is enabled, the whole front page results in a vb error page, but with no displayed message where the text usually appears in the box (it's blank).

As he says, upload with the vba importer, then put this to NO. That way it works on my vb sites. Using 3.6.8 and vbA 3.0

Clean File Output 
If your are trying to include a PHP file that was not written specifically for vBulletin or vBadvanced, it may be necessary to "clean" the output of this file. If you add a module and the content prints out as the first thing on the top your page, this is a good indication that it needs to be cleaned.
