LDM extends VBulletin to manage a library of documents, files and links to other web sites. Documents can be stored on your own web site, stored on your server separate from the web site, uploaded by your user community, or held somewhere else altogether. So you can use LDM to provide your user community with access to your own files and allow them to share files with each other.

12/08/06 - Versions that work with vb36 are available and supported in the VB36 thread. Version 2.2.1, which works with VB 3.5 but not with VB 3.6, remains available here.

Thanks to everyone who has helped with all the design, testing, etc.
Translations are provided (thanks dLutt and LeeWicked) into German, (thanks to Allan) into French, and (thanks to Hugo) into Spanish. Harry1951 has handled the Dutch translation.

Screenshots, Instructions and How to Install

Full details and instructions are available as a Wiki at http://www.eirma.org/wikis/index.php...nloads_Manager

LDM installs as a VBulletin product. There are no modifications required to standard VB code.

Basically - upload php files and run the installer through VB's Product installer. No changes needed to VB code. Remember to BACKUP YOUR DATABASE. By default, LDM prefixes its database tables 'local_'. Edit the configuration file, local_links_init.php, if you need/wish to change this.

LDM can handle an essentially unlimited number of categories and nested subcategories, and an unlimited number of entries (hyperlinks or downloadable files). Each entry can be placed in one or several categories. Categories can have styles. Descriptions and titles can optionally include BBcodes, smilies, images and html, giving the possibility to add images, colouring, etc. File types can be flagged using icons and individual entries can also have associated thumbnail images.

Standards templates are provided for libraries of links, files, documents, and photographs.

Users can offer comments and rate the links/downloads. Each user is allowed one rating and many comments per entry, and can freely edit these if they change their mind.

Permission to use specific features is established via the product's admin page, where the administrator specifies which usergroups can add and edit entries, comment and rate these entries, moderate, etc.

By default, all entries are visible to all users. You can restrict visibility/access to links and categories by using the permissions masks from your board's forums.

Moderation of new entries is available but turned off by default.

Users can report bad links to the relevant moderators/administrators.

Each user can flag links as his/her "Favourites".

Modules are provided for VBAdvanced.

Hooks are provided in suitable places in LDM and sample plugins are included in the release (see extras directory), for example to integrate with ID3 tags in mp3 files, for slideshows, to autocreate new threads in your forums, etc.

Plus much more.

Sorry, I need a bit more information. The link local_links.php?action=jump&id=1&catid=2
is the usual url that LDM uses to give access (you've created two categories, and this is the first entry you've put in the database...)

Just to be clear, the problem is happening with an upload? Just this one, or any upload? Do things work ok when you create entries which point to urls rather than being uploads?

If you want me to take a look at your site, send me a PM with an admin username and password to your board.

I can't recall - have you given me an account on your board with admin privs? I need to take a look behind the scenes. Send me a PM.

I took a look - I can't see anything wrong, although I notice that you have still got the pre-release 2.2.0 version of LDM installed. I made a small change to the relevant code in the final release to try to correct your problem. Can you upload and install that (the particular change is in the file include/local_links.misc.php)

Let me know if you still get this problem.

With downloads, there are also some funny tricks that one has to watch out for, so if it's ok, I'll simply put this on the list...

Thanks anyway
Well i changed a phrase, "$vbphrase[ll_pleasewait]", using one of Allan's mods.

I know you said you were adding it to the list and this works fine for now! At least I know my page isn't frozen or crashed now.

When you set new categories have to be moderated and a member add a new category this category is instantly visible and acessable for guests via the drop down list.

And a second problem is, that no emails are send to the administrator if a new link/category is submitted, that must moderated.
