What this is and does

LDM is a general-purpose link and file manager, which handles user uploads and downloads in a flexible way. A range of media players is integrated into LDM and others are included as plugin extras. 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.

Documentation, screen shots, etc, are provided as a Wiki at http://www.eirma.org/wikis/index.php...nloads_Manager

Thank you to everyone who has tested, given suggestions, helped with the translations, etc.

This is great news. LDM is now a major part of my site, and so a changeover to 3.6 looks practical for me. Thanks, Andrew.

why do i feel like a newbie??

Paste from 3.5.X:

i can't seem to figure out why my icons don't work.....

if the path is right it doesn't work and if i add a ./ it doesn't work either....oops wrong thread? should i have put this in the 3.6.0 thread??

anyway they don't work in the modules....

[Tyegurl]

not sure if this is me or if there is a problem....

when i download from the jukebox it asks if i want to save or open the file....ummmm that shouldn't happen right? lol now in the 3.5.4 it never did that but maybe i need to change a setting?

can_play_musicbox and can_save_musicbox settings:

With both: the filetype icon opens the jukebox and the entry name triggers a open/save as'
With can_play but not can_save: both icon and name open the jukebox
With can_save but not can_play: icon does nothing and name triggers a open/save as

Probably you had changed this permission in your vb354 board as nothing has changed with the vb36 code

okay now andrewd....quick questions...

i don't have my uploads in vb db...i have them in my forum root...now if i do a fresh install what do i need to export to bring them all back? just the csv? or the xml too? and if i do the xml import will this wipe out everything i have done to my new test forum? there's no threads or anything like that but i am worried about my mods...will i have to reinstall or anything like that?

and how do i get rid of this look? i can't seem to figure it out....

In settings, change the cat_sub_display option to 0 (zero) to not show the sub catagories that are inside your main catagory.
