LDM is described below in the first post of this thread, which also contains a brief list of the currently-known bugs.

This release of LDM works correctly with all VB versions 3.6.x and recent versions of vbadvanced.

That explains quite a lot. Since i just moved servers, the most newest file was not moved along.

LDM already works out whether the current user is allowed to moderate in the category she's viewing, but doesn't keep a full list of all the users who have this permission.
My coding team is currently working on other add-ons for LDM. Could you please add this function to LDM?

How can I add a LDM column to showgroups.php (Show forum leaders) to display which LDM categories staff moderates?

I just loved this hack.
Being using it since my first vb board 3.0.6
Im thinking if you could provide speed limiting or bandwidth limit for certain usergroup.

Im using this hack to server downloads to my members.
User with below X posts will not be able to download.
So far, it works..but im thinking to make a more robust rules.

example:
User below 30 post will not be able to download.
User below 100 post will have their download capped at 70kbps
User below 300 post will have their download capped at 150kbps
User who has more than 300 posts will have normal download speed.

Also, I want to be able to restrict the download for XX amount of connection for certain group
and for donators/paid members they can use unlimited connection.

Plus, why is it download manager cannot be used with downloads? is it because of server settings?

Is it possible to do this? If not, what can I implement to make this possible?
Do I need to tweak my server setting?

Thanks for that andrew d i tried some out and there good but no where near what i need. Like for instance if it can be the SAME at modern , but when you click on it it opens op another page kind of like (that's a gallery so ignore all that useless info lol):

http://forums.pspcrazy.com/forums/ph...ndex.php?n=209

So users can see comments about it on that page, the file, possibly the full out description and a larger thumb(if doable that's optional). Anyway I can pull that type of thing would be awesome.

Andrew

Am trying to contain impatience til I have time to install this and enjoy it! Not much longer. Just need to install the 3.7beta and try it out this week on a second site.

Meanwhile would it be possible to set visibility by usergroup?
That is have a section of my Library for usergroup1 another for usergroup2 - each group can see their own sector + the open areas for all members
usergroup mods can see all
some open area Library visible to all members?

Categories inside each of the restricted access areas.

In replying please speak slowly in a clear voice! I am not a coder.

nope i just manually removed it lol. Theres a way to do it using some ?exclude or something you can search it up. I use it on my other site AnimeCrazy.net as well

Oh and andrew I found out that you have something like it atm, but not really emphasized:

http://forums.pspcrazy.com/forums/lo...tid=21&lpage=1

it covers all the features I want all we need now is someway to force the listing on the category page to now to not autodownload, instead to link to that page. The design on the thumb + short feels a bit too empty imo, that's why i prefer it this way. If you can in the next version odd a new way to have them show that would rock.

I don't think it is a good idea to implement this within LDM, but I will put it on the 'to think about list'. Most of the responsibility for transferring a file is actually handled by the web server. LDM passes the content to the server. To change this, I would end up rewriting a substantial part of the server code or makeing some big assumptions about the server modules installed on the site.

Have you tried LDM/admin/allowances?

I don't understand your question - what downloads are not working? Have you got all the mimetypes set up correctly (see LDM wiki)

Yes, this is possible and was built in from the start. Tries to speak slowly...

LDM 'piggy backs' on the vbulletin forums permissions system to decide who can see categories and entries. Each category and each entry can have an optional 'associated forum'.

If the category or entry has an associated forum, LDM will only show it to users who have 'can view forum' and 'can view others posts' permissions for that forum.

So, in order to make a section of your site available to usergroup 1, you must

- Choose (or create) a vbulletin forum and give the required permissions to usergroup 1 an dnot to other usergroups.
- Edit the LDM category/categories, and set the 'Parent Forum' to this category

This is explained in more detail in the LDM wiki.

Hi AndrewD , nice hack but I am wondering is this hack like a link manger i mean some software can host upload on the server while other can be like a hack that holds a list of links of rapidshare , megaupload etc..

Ex:

Let say a member uploaded something on rapidshare.com, and he wants to submit that rapidshare link " url " to that hack. is this hack like that ?

This can do both - manage url links that you/your users submit, and manage downloads
