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.

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.

Hooks for Multi-language category titles
Wow.. as soon as i get hold of the copy i will get the product out for the multilanguage stuff...


btw.. i'm not being ungratefull.. because you are doing great work.. but as i am trying to test everything.. stumbled into another one:

if you go to the comment page.. you have a button "return" and it takes you back to the link... usually it works fine.. but:

If you did a search.. and within the search results you go to the comment page.. when you click the return from there.... it takes you back to the ldm homepage.. ie: the category list

ldm/admin/settings -> set link_imagesize to the size you want the images to display

then, the ldm/add entry menu command and entry/edit entry button will take you to a form which includes fields for an image url/an image upload

Enjoy...

I'm not ungrateful at all - so much code, so many routes through it - bound to be bugs.

// Uncomment this to use the standard VB table prefix...
// define ('THIS_TABLE', TABLE_PREFIX);
You can either change 'local_' to be what you want or you can remove the comment symbols (the //) from the second define statement to use the same prefix as vb (I would not recommend that because you might end up with one database table trying to serve two different masters)

Of course, if you change this in a live system, you will need to use a tool like phpmyadmin to rename your existing tables.
Apologies for my error, and thanks for the info.

( Thank you something else

How would i go around to post the LINK of the download itself in the thread? like what i'm trying to do is

when you upload (example) an mp3 that it post a new thread with the LINK itself to the mp3 and that i would be able to embed it so if someone just want to view ONLY the thread without going to the download section itself just to listen example

i'm not sure if you get what i mean?

Still running the 'post1' version at the moment, is it worthwhile upgrading yet?

I think I understand.

Depending on what you want to do, this either requires a simple code edit or is quite difficult

If you *always* want to trigger a download/open a remote url, then edit includes/local_links_forumsinterface.php and find the line

Code:
	$gotolink = ldm_make_filename($vbulletin->options['bburl'], LINKS_SCRIPT.'.php?linkid='.$linkid.'&catid='.$linkcatid);
Change it to:
Code:
	$gotolink = ldm_make_filename($vbulletin->options['bburl'], LINKS_SCRIPT.'.php?action=jump&linkid='.$linkid.'&catid='.$linkcatid);
If you *always* want to open the file in the LDM jukebox, then change that line to
[code]
Change it to:
Code:
	$gotolink = ldm_make_filename($vbulletin->options['bburl'], LINKS_SCRIPT.'.php?action=play&linkid='.$linkid.'&catid='.$linkcatid);
If you want the code to be smart about the file type (i.e. play media files, download others), that would require more extensive changes in that file.

Note that these edits will not change any announcements that have already been created in your forums.

Depends on whether you've been hit by any of the bugs that are fixed in post-2 and post-3. I've not had reports of new problems with these releases.

2.3.0 is coming quite soon, but will be in alpha/beta for a couple of months, I imagine.
