Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

clydejones:

You should be able to add unlimited categories from

admin -> extras -> link categories

Don't forget to enable the category after adding it.

Clyde,

Thanks for this great mod! Can you please tell me where I can download the most recent version that contains all the different bug fixes and file update you've provided in this thread?

Thanks!

It will be available in the downloads section in the next few days.

I just added images to my categories section but for some reason on http://www.cooltechcentral.com/links the sections are not as well spaced as http://www.books-japan-online.com/links what could be causing this?

Try adding some padding to the following declaration in the links.css

.linkstext{padding: 3px 0 15px 0;float:left;width:33%;text-align:center;font-size:1em}

Change the highlighted portion to whatever you need.

That did the trick, thanks.

This release upgrades the mod using several suggestions found in this thread.

Only problem I have with this is that the java help box doesn't open
javascript:popupWindow('http://www.freerangepc.com/uk/index.php?main_page=popup_links_help')

Is something I should change to make it work?

On my other pop ups it says javascript:session_win(); and they pop up okay??

Great Mod by the way :)

I am having a few problems with your upgrade.

I am now able to add text via Define Page editor, but now I have:

http://www.cooltechcentral.com/links_submit

Link information and

Please choose the most appropriate category for your link. Cool Tech Central reserves the right to change the category or edit your description, if needed.

sandwiched between link submission.

Also I don't like the blue gradient behind the titles and the help java script buttons don't show up.

The links category page:

http://www.cooltechcentral.com/links

still doesn't have text in it even though page text editor has a page for it.

sandwiched between link submission.

Open includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/links_submit.php

find and delete the following define statement

define('SUBMIT_RULE', '<p>Please choose the most appropriate category for your link. <strong>' . STORE_NAME . '</strong> reserves the right to change the category or edit your description, if needed.</p>');

Also I don't like the blue gradient behind the titles

You can always create your own 10px by 30px graphic and save it to
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/images/form.png

...the help java script buttons don't show up.

I'll check on this issue.

The links category page:

http://www.cooltechcentral.com/links

still doesn't have text in it even though page text editor has a page for it.
Open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_links_default.php

find the following line of code:

<?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . zen_get_module_directory(FILENAME_LINK_LISTING)); ?>

Just above this line add the following code:

<?php if (DEFINE_LINKS_STATUS >= '1' and DEFINE_LINKS_STATUS <= '2') { ?>

<?php require($define_page); ?>

<?php } ?>

Hello there,

Great mod, I recently updated to your latest update. When I go to the links page, everything looks fine. When you click on the category, the following is displayed:-

1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1
in:
[select count(l.links_id) as total from zen_links_description ld, zen_links l, zen_links_to_link_categories l2lc where l.links_status = '2' and l.links_id = l2lc.links_id and ld.links_id = l2lc.links_id and ld.language_id = '1' and l2lc.link_categories_id = '16'order by ]

can be seen here:-

http://www.thegemtree.com/index.php?main_page=links&lPath=7

The links options uner the links dropdown doesn't show anything at the minute. It could be something to do with my setup maybe.

I ftp'd the upgrade folder, and ran the upgrade sql contained therein.

Many regards,

Heathenmagic

Do you have a URL for your site so I can take a look.

Are you talking about The following text Help [?]?

If you are, these are text only clickable areas (no buttons).

I can always add a button in a future upgrade.

I'll work on this, but I've tested getting to the links from the "category" page on three different sites and can't duplicate the problem. (using the most current version)

The links options uner the links dropdown doesn't show anything at the minute. It could be something to do with my setup maybe.

I'm guessing you mean the Links Manager menu options - Check admin -> configuration -> links manager

Heres my link for the Help (?)Pop up Not working, Only thing is I have it set so only members can leave a link

https://www.freerangepc.com/uk/index.php?main_page=login

It's not that Important as the fields are self explainitory.

I can't login in in any case You have the US locked out in your "select country" field.

I'm not sure what the problem is but I've got it working on three of my own sites and I've checked a couple of other sites from this thread and and it seems to be working.

You should have the following folders and files:

includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/popup_links_help.php
includes/modules/pages/popup_links_help/header_php.php
includes/modules/pages/popup_links_help/jscript_main.php
