Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

[fajmp]

I am excited to get this mod working. Thank you. The sql that came
with the download did not work for me, so I found another one that was posted for someone else and thought it was working but
when you look at the box, instead of the word Links it has the whole
('BOX_HEADING_LINK_CATEGORIES', 'Links');
Instead of the view all links it has
('BOX_INFORMATION_VIEW_ALL_LINKS', 'View All Links')
Instead of the submit link it has
'BOX_INFORMATION_LINKS_SUBMIT', 'Submit Link')

When I click on View all links it seems to go to the right page and looks correct.

When I click for the submit page it looks like this:

Sounds like you didn't upload ALL of the required language files:
don't forget to rename the YOUR_TEMPLATE folder to match the name of the custom template you are using for your site.

you are so right! Hopefully I'll figure the rest out...but probably not. You guys are always so fast and so helpful...thank you.

[fajmp]

Well, I'm back.
I can't find any links manager in my admin...configuration.

I've searched trying to find the answer. Perhaps I'm not inputting
the right search, but I didn't find anything.

I've tripple checked everything as far as uploading the files into the
admin folders.
What am I missing?

did you run the install_links_manager.sql?

[fajmp]

Yes, as you see in my first email...I didn't use the one with
the download, but another one that you gave to someone else.
Should I redo it again or something.

You should run the one from the download.

or make sure you're looking in the right place in your admin

admin -> configuration -> links manager

[fajmp]

it's not there I'm afraid...should I do the sql again from the download then?

[fajmp]

nevermind...it was in the config but the last one way down on the dropdown menu where I couldn't see it. I accidentally hit the config again and there it was way at the bottom when it shows the site map.

I only found one person answering this question...
last night I had the link sidebox in my store...this morning it's not there. Never touched a thing except turn it off so my customers
didn't have to look at it. I had turned it off and on many times
yesterday trying different things on the live site.

I've tried changing it to right but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions. My site is http://www.subjectmatters.ca/talkingwalls/ in case you need it to have a peek.
