Thanks!

The user's timezone is taken into account. If the entry is marked as becoming visible at 12:00 EST, then that will happen, regardless of where the server is, provided all the time settings are correct.

Some members have commented they can't open MP3s in this on their iPhone. Is there anyway around it?

I tried the floppy disk idea in Firefox and it works how you said and loads up in a quicktime only page.

But when i tried it on my ipod touch it just said "This movie can not be played" again.

Sorry, I've no idea. mp3s play correctly on macs via quicktime. I have no way of testing an iphone.

It looks like you've got blank thumbnails. Can you work out what the entries correspond to (e.g. by also installing the 'new' module).

In a users profile it has two boxes with the titles

My Recent LDM Hits
My Recent LDM Entries

I would like to remove the LDM and replace it with something else. How please?

These are set up as vbulletin phrases - look for the phrases called ldm_recent_entries and ldm_recent_hits on your vb/admincp/languages and phrases

The new local_links_vbafunc.php works perfect - the newest entries are now correctly listed. Thanks for the fix!

There doesn't seem to be a way to manage one's profile saved searches. For regular saved searches, there is a link called 'Saved Searches' that enables the user to edit/ manage the saves. Can you provide a similar link/ option for Profile Searches so that the user can choose to show/ not show/ which menu(s) to show the search links on? Thanks for considering.

Edit: never mind the request.... it's kinda frivolous since I found the setting that allows the admin to control the profile search links. It's located at: Links & Downloads > Settings > Searches > profile_searchfield - just check the fields that you want to have search links.
