What this is and does
LDM is a general-purpose link and file manager, which handles user uploads and downloads in a flexible way. It has a number of integrated media players 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.
Documentation, screen shots, etc, are provided as a

Version 2.2.9 Beta 1
06.04.2008: We are entering the final laps for version 2.2.9. It's now about finding the bugs and getting them out of the code.
See the first post in this thread for details of what's new. As this is not yet the official release, please use it for test purposes - do not use on a live site unless you feel really confident.
To install, download just the links-2.2.9-beta1.zip file. The local_links_init.php file is provided for those sites that want (see below) to patch version 2.2.8 to work with VB3.7.
Version 2.2.9 alpha 4 will be left here for a few days until we get the first reports that beta 1 has no serious problems.
Please post any reports of problems and suggestions for 3.7 integration here.
Version 2.2.8
The 2.2.8 release version of LDM, available in this thread, works correctly in most respects.
To use this version, install (or keep) the 2.2.8 code and replace includes/local_links_init.php with the file attached to this thread. I have found only one problem, which is with the member profile integration features in LDM.
You must upgrade LDM to at least version 2.2.8 in order to run on VB3.7, as the attached initialisation file will not work with older versions of LDM. You can run the upgrade before or after upgrading vBulletin to VB 3.7. If you choose to upgrade vBulletin first but want to stay with verionn 2.2.8, then a) upload the complete LDM 2.2.8 code, then b) upload the new initialisation file, and finally c) use vb admincp/products and plugins/ to upload the LDM product xml. Alternatively you can go directly to version 2.2.9
