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 more question.
I dont want the uploads to go in to a forum as a new thread? is it possible to do that?

Another question .

i uploaded an MP3

Upload error - file is larger than maximum size allowed. but the size was 510k.

i have specified 800K

* THIS file type has not listed in vb
* after specifying the size and save, the file type table of LDM does not show the size 800k in it file types table.

Edited : Sorry, it takes little time to understand each options. Just now find the solution. Thank You.

For your next release Andrew do you think it would be possible to add an option that would bypass the timeout hit limit based on usergroup premissions?

I'm having a little trouble after installing 2.2.9-post2. The new image permissions don't seem to work correctly. I have it set so that two of the three Usergroups that can post links, can also add thumbnails. However, the thumbs do not show. There is a space where the thumb should be, but the image is not there.

The Thumbnails do show when viewing the Category in the "Short Entries" version.

Thanks for your help,

James

Sorry to hear that there is still a problem. I find these very difficult to debug without direct access to the site - do you mind if I take a look? I will need admin access (send me a PM).

like vbulletin thread

this make eazy and perfect show of the entry in LDM

Is it possible to upload multiple images for one LDM entry? (just as you can allow multiple images to be attached to a forum post)

Thanks,
Kevin

Yes, using the "Entry Attributes" features introduced in 2.2.9. Use LDM/admin/Entry attributes to set up one or more attributes as images or image uploads, then the Add/Edit entry form will expand to alow you to provide these.
