The default value for register_long_arrays is off and perhaps it might be worth considering replacing the use of $HTTP_POST_VARS with $_POST / $_GET

I'll make the changes and post an updated version in the downloads section.

Hi

Re $HTTP_POST_VARS - thats prob a good idea going forward. Thanks

There is another small issue (in 3.3.0 at least). Its a usability thing:
If we edit a link...
/links.php?page=1&lID=1&action=edit

The 'Status' drop down always comes up as 'Pending', when it should really carry the actual value from the DB so the user doesnt have to remember to reset it to what it was.

thanks

I'll check that also.

Hi Clyde,

Just noticed a couple of issues with Links Manager v3.3.0.

1. The submit link button does not work (I'm having the same problem I did with Testimonials Manager)
2. Clicking on any link category (on my links page) does nothing!

I'm pretty sure I can fix issue 1 (as I'll just check the changes you made to the form handling in the Testimonials Manager fix you sent me). However, I'm not sure how to fix the second issue?

If you have any ideas that would be great.

My links page is at: http://www.beyondeuphoria.co.uk/inde...ain_page=links

I'll let you know how I get on! :)

Alex,

Open includes/modules/YOUR_TEMPLATE/link_listing.php

find the following lines of code:
if ($column_list[$col] != 'LINK_LIST_IMAGE') {
$lc_text = zen_create_sort_heading($HTTP_GET_VARS['sort'], $col+1, $lc_text);
}

change the highlighted portion to $_GET

See if that makes a difference.

1. run the following sql script from admin -> tools -> install sql patches.

copy and paste the code and click the send button.

Code:

---

INSERT INTO `configuration` VALUES ('', 'Image Handler Version', 'IH_VERSION', '2.0', 'This is used by image handler to check if the database is up to date with uploaded image handler files.', 0, 100, NULL, '2007-09-03 12:30:43', NULL, 'zen_cfg_textarea_small(');
INSERT INTO `configuration` VALUES ('', 'Product option type Select', 'PRODUCTS_OPTIONS_TYPE_SELECT', '0', 'The number representing the Select type of product option.', 0, NULL, '2006-09-04 09:22:39', '2006-09-04 09:22:39', NULL, NULL);
INSERT INTO `configuration` VALUES ('', 'Upload prefix', 'UPLOAD_PREFIX', 'upload_', 'Prefix used to differentiate between upload options and other options', 0, NULL, '2006-09-04 09:22:39', '2006-09-04 09:22:39', NULL, NULL);
INSERT INTO `configuration` VALUES ('', 'Text prefix', 'TEXT_PREFIX', 'txt_', 'Prefix used to differentiate between text option values and other option values', 0, NULL, '2006-09-04 09:22:39', '2006-09-04 09:22:39', NULL, NULL);

2. Images can be added in admin -> extras -> links

Thanks for your answer Clyde
I have tried the SQL patch but I got a sintax error at first then a duplicate entry (IH version check) I deleted that from the db then MySQL processed the 4 values.
Still no change for the mouseover image
Still no change for the Insert image field URL in the submit link form
Thanks

Links manager uses its own image height and width values and is not affected by IH2

images are added to the links via admin -> extras -> links and not through the links submit form.

Hi clyde...first off you are amazing in how you keep up with all the questions.

I have a simple one. Where do I change the number of links displayed on a page?
