Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

I'll try deleting everything and then reinstalling Links Manager.

One thing that might be affecting it, is when I had problems with my logo, someone created a new template override name for me (srs), and put the logo there. But I already had a template override name of my own. When I installed Links Manager, I wasn't sure where to put the files (in "srs" or my template name). Right now the files are in both places. But as I said, I'll try deleting everything and reinstalling in only one place at at time.

Hi Clyde,

In the New Install instructions, under "Database Modifications:", it says:

A new database table needs to be created to store your links items. New configuration options are added to the zen_configuration table.

Thanks,
SAS

Do I have to create this table, or is it done automatically?

You need to run the links_manager_install.sql script.

open this file copy the contents and paste them into the text box in

admin -> tools -> install sql patches and click the send button

Hello,

I still have such error message on "Checking Link" page after I install Link Manager.

In Admin/Extra/Links, If I click on "check links", Such error messages appear:
Warning: file() [function.file]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/.nonsense/XXXX/loveinrose.com/admin/links.php on line 618

Warning: file(http://www.xtreme-hosting-inc.com) [function.file]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /home/.nonsense/XXXX/loveinrose.com/admin/links.php on line 618

Somebody said it is because allow_url_fopen is set OFF. I contacted my hosting server and asked them to turn it On. They said for security reason, they couldn't turn it ON. But they told me that I can use CURL as an aternative.

My question is how to code to replace the origial code?

if (file($url)) {
        $file = fopen($url,'r');

        $link_check_status = false;

        while (!feof($file)) {
          $page_line = trim(fgets($file, 4096));

          if (eregi(LINKS_CHECK_PHRASE, $page_line)) {
            $link_check_status = true;
            break;
          }
        }

Do anybody know how to do it? Thank you

Lina

I've gone through all 29 pages of this thread and could not find the answer to this one. On the "Submit Your Link" page, the image for the help button is not showing up, just a red x. How can I fix this?

The button images are also missing from Admin > Extra > Links for "Check Link" and "New Link"

Open includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/links_manager_defines.php

add the following lines:

define('BUTTON_IMAGE_LINK_HELP', 'button_link_help.gif');
define('BUTTON_LINK_HELP_ALT', 'Link Help');

save the file and upload it to your server

What would we do without you??! :wink: That fixed it! But now when I click on the Links Help button, I get a message at the bottom of the browser window that says "Error on Page", and nothing pops up.

Make sure the following files/folders are on your server:

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
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/popup_links_help/tpl_main_page.php

Yes, the files are all there.

This should fix the problem.

unzip the file and upload the entire includes folder to your server.[Attachment no longer available]

No, there is still just the link name with the red X for "New Link" and "Check Link" (this is under Extra > Links).

I dont' have access to your admin panel so I can't really see what the problem is.

I can only advise you to make sure that all the files in the download admin folder have been uploaded.

The "New Link" and "Check Link" buttons work (I can add links and I've checked a couple to make sure they are reciprocating), it's just the buttons themselves don't show. I uploaded the includes folder from the zip file, so everything is there. This is what the page looks like.

If you'd like temporary access to my admin panel, I can do that for you.

You might be missing the button images:

As always, unzip the attachment and upload the admin folder to your server.

Clyde, you're the best! That did the trick - thanks as always.

Glad to help.

Is there a way to widen the column used for "Description" ? There is more room available in that column, and it would look better if the description weren't so smushed. To see an example, click the link below:

Those columns take up 1/3 (each) of the space it occupies on the page.

I'll do some work on it and see what I can do.

Thanks!!! :d
