What this is and does

LDM is a general-purpose tool for managing libraries of links and files, and handling uploads and downloads in a flexible way, while tracking and control user access. It has a range of integrated media players and a large library of 'plugin' extras.

Installation and Usage Explained in the on-line Wiki, with a brief explanation in the file instructions.txt in the release zip. The recent revision history is given in the first post of this thread.

Please use carefully and always backup your database before upgrading. Post reports of problems and suggestions for enhancements in this thread.

14.06.09 Version 2.3.0 is now the the officially-supported version. Works with 3.7 and vb 3.8. Please post comments in this thread

22.06.08 Version 2.2.9-post1 - This is the previous supported version. Works fine with all versions of vb 3.6 and vb 3.7. All standard features except profile integration and forum prefix selection work fine with vb 3.8.

yes - I imagine you are logged in on firefox but not on IE. See https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=144

If that's not the case, let me have more details and I'll investigate.

I am definitely logged in. When I first uploaded all the files to my server and installed, I tested it out on IE, as I use firefox normally, and it just says my board has encountered a database error. I haven't edited any of the files on my server and only configured a few things in the LDM admin settings. It works perfectly fine on firefox so I don't get it!

It's quite possible I've messed up the coding - quite a bit of version 2.2.9 is new, which is why it's still in alpha. Maybe you can post some more details of the error and I can investigate?

There is no actual error though? All that happens is I type in mydomain.com/forum/local_links.php on internet explorer and it says my domain has a database error (the default main vbulletin DB error you get sometimes). Something just seems dodgy with the compatibility of IE and the database for LDM.

I think you'll find the problem is fixed by uploading this file into your forum/includes directory. The problem is not with IE, it's with users who do/do not have moderate permission, and an undeclared global variable relating to moderation. I can reproduce the bug that you report.

Thank you so much.

It's working right now.

EDIT: Now I have an issue with the jukebox lol. It loads up fine and looks good etc but it won't play any files at all. At it also says 0.00 time/0%.

I know the file has definitely uploaded in the entry because I can download it.

I'll need a bit more information to help. Which file types, which media player, etc. Does it not work/work with mp3s, wmas, etc? Am happy to take a look at your if you want.

I have all the default settings that you set up. I added an mp3 extension to the attachments.
I upload the mp3 file and when I went to play it, the jukebox windows comes up but nothing plays and it doesn't look like there is anything to play.

However I am definitely sure the file does upload because I clicked the option to download it and it works.

1 - could you please make a plugin for LDM that allows me add multiple links for one entry? (useful for freehost linkings, since they don't work with the mirror system)
2 - in vba_modules, could you please add an option to paginate the entries that are shown...
example: i have set 200 entries to show, but want on each page 100 entries...

thanks

Truly amazing mod that's for sure, thanks for adding what I need. Only complaint I got left is how do I get rid of the bars in between the categories randomly?

http://www.pspcrazy.com/forums/local_links.php : The separators shouldn't be there. Now If only there was that SEO feature mentioned above in there, then I'd be in heaven

Awesome mod for sure.
