What this is and does

Version 3.0.2-PL1 uploaded 15th March 2010.

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 controlling user access. It also has a range of integrated media players and a large library of 'plugin' extras. It has been developed steadily since the release of vb 3.0 some six years ago, based on extensive feedback from users at vb.org.

I think the 3.0.x releases have been tested enough and are no longer considered beta. However, I still want feedback on features that do not work at all or do not work properly.

Translations in Spanish, French, Chinese, German and Dutch are available as phrase files and are more or less complete.

Installation and Usage Explained in the on-line Wiki, with a brief explanation in the file instructions.txt in the release zip.

The installer will either create a new LDM database, or recognise that you already have an earlier version installed and update it.

Unlike earlier versions of LDM, this version automatically adds a link to the product on the main vb navbar.

Please do not blindly install on a live forum without being sure that you have tested it adequately. Use carefully and always backup your database before upgrading. Post reports of problems and suggestions for enhancements in this thread. You can find extensive discussion of this mod in the VB3.7 mods and VB3.8 mods sections.

Staff Note: Sadly, Andrew D, the developer of the Links and Downloads Manager has passed away after a long period of illness.

Thanks guys, now I understand the problem - I'd messed up a test on another php variable (allow_url_fopen), which is disabled on both of your sites.

Will try to post a fix this evening or tomorrow.

If you did, pls go to vb/admincp/products and plugins/plugin manager. Edit the Links and Downloads Manager - Add LDM to main vBulletin menu plugin attached to the process_templates_complete hook. After the line:

if (LDM_NAVBAR_LOCATION) {

add

echo THIS_SCRIPT;
echo "<br />";
echo LDM_LINKS_SCRIPT;
echo "<br />";

and save.

Run your main ldm script and let me know what gets displayed at the top of the screen. Then undo the edit to the plugin.
Thanks Andrew, I got this on top:

local_links
links

One option would be to display the navbar entry only when inside LDM (I assume you've got a way to get into LDM in the first place). If this would suit you, I'll post an explanation.
Yes, that would be great. Thank you for your help!

Go to vb/admincp/products and plugins/plugin manager

Edit the "Links and Downloads Manager - Add LDM to main vBulletin menu" plugin attached to the "process_templates_complete" hook.

The standard code looks as follows:

Code:
	require_once(DIR . '/includes/local_links_defns.php');

	if (LDM_NAVBAR_LOCATION) {

		if (defined('THIS_SCRIPT') and
				(
			   THIS_SCRIPT == LDM_LINKS_SCRIPT	or THIS_SCRIPT == 'local_links'
			or THIS_SCRIPT == LDM_ACTION_SCRIPT	or THIS_SCRIPT == 'local_links_actions'
			or THIS_SCRIPT == LDM_ADMIN_SCRIPT	or THIS_SCRIPT == 'local_links_admin'
			or THIS_SCRIPT == LDM_SEARCH_SCRIPT	or THIS_SCRIPT == 'local_links_search'
				)
			) {
// Highlight ldm tab when in LDM - LDM code will create the actual tab and navbar
			$vbulletin->options['selectednavtab'] = 'ldm';
		}
		else {
// Create the tab, no navbar needed
			$templater = vB_Template::create('links_navbar');
			$templater->quickRegister(array(
				'ldm_links_script'=>LDM_LINKS_SCRIPT,
				));
			$template_hook[LDM_NAVBAR_LOCATION] .= $templater->render();
		}

	}
Just add comment signs (//) to five lines as follows:

Code:
	require_once(DIR . '/includes/local_links_defns.php');

	if (LDM_NAVBAR_LOCATION) {

		if (defined('THIS_SCRIPT') and
				(
			   THIS_SCRIPT == LDM_LINKS_SCRIPT	or THIS_SCRIPT == 'local_links'
			or THIS_SCRIPT == LDM_ACTION_SCRIPT	or THIS_SCRIPT == 'local_links_actions'
			or THIS_SCRIPT == LDM_ADMIN_SCRIPT	or THIS_SCRIPT == 'local_links_admin'
			or THIS_SCRIPT == LDM_SEARCH_SCRIPT	or THIS_SCRIPT == 'local_links_search'
				)
			) {
// Highlight ldm tab when in LDM - LDM code will create the actual tab and navbar
			$vbulletin->options['selectednavtab'] = 'ldm';
		}
		else {
// Create the tab, no navbar needed
//			$templater = vB_Template::create('links_navbar');
//			$templater->quickRegister(array(
//				'ldm_links_script'=>LDM_LINKS_SCRIPT,
//				));
//			$template_hook[LDM_NAVBAR_LOCATION] .= $templater->render();
		}

	}
I will try to provide a more 'friendly' way to achieve this effect in a later release. For the time being, keep in mind that you will have to re-apply the edits each time you upgrade LDM.

I've reuploaded version 3.0.2 with fixes to these reported problems:

a) Error message when trying to download or play a file when php setting allow_url_fopen is off

b) LDM admin settings not 'sticking' for the vbcms entries 'extra'; and 'show category' option not working for this and the vbcms thumbs 'extra'
