Major Additions - Links and Downloads Manager

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.

One thing though, I made a test file > http://crinale.com/forums/local_link...id=10&linkid=5

But the image doesn't work, I made so you have to put in a image URL but it seem not to work, nor show the thumbnail in the category list.

Hi, have you enabled images by setting a thumbnail size using ldm/admin/settings/link_imagesize?

}
else
{
     $ldm_denied = false;
} 


and then perhaps this in the links_agreement template (i guessed that one!):

PHP Code:

<if condition = "$ldm_denied">
     <span class="highlight">$vbphrase[ll_agreement_declined]</span>
</if> 


to show just the declined message, it doesn't matter about an ok button as in the message i have a link to take them back to forums.

It's easier than that.

Edit the links_agreement template, and find these lines:

	<if condition="$ldm_accept<0">
	<span class="highlight">$vbphrase[ll_agreement_declined]</span>
	</if>
	<br /><br />
	$vbphrase[ll_agreement]

and replace them with this:

	<if condition="$ldm_accept<0">
	<span class="highlight">$vbphrase[ll_agreement_declined]</span>
	<else />
	$vbphrase[ll_agreement]
	</if>

That way, the two phrases (ll_agreement and ll_agreement_declined) are kept totally separate.

Andrew, thanks for the support and time you spent on this but if i could just make one more request, is it possible not to show the radio buttons or the go button when decline has been selected, as i said the decline message has a link in it back to forums, i could of course add another link back to the ldm page and perhaps call the links "Back to forums" and "Try again".

Missed that part, sorry.

It's just a matter of moving the close of the <if> test a bit further down in the links_agreement template, for example

	<if condition="$ldm_accept<0">
	<span class="highlight">$vbphrase[ll_agreement_declined]</span>
	<else />
	$vbphrase[ll_agreement]
	<br /><br />
	<input type="radio" name="ldm_accept_form" value="1" /> $vbphrase[ll_accept]
	&nbsp;&nbsp;
	<input type="radio" name="ldm_accept_form" value="-1" checked="checked"/> $vbphrase[ll_decline]
	<br /><br />
	<input type="submit" class="button" name="submit" value="$vbphrase[ll_go]" />
	</if>

It looks as if it is not completing the installation, but I have no idea why. If you send me a PM with site details and an admin account, I will take a look.

Maybe you can try this. It patches LDM to use Shadowbox for the Jukebox and as an alternative lightbox for the LDM image magnifier.
