Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

ok, sorry I run the patch and they show up now. Thanks :)

okay, fixed the problem by including a } above ?>.

I don't seem to have the following. Did I do something wrong?

Admin -> Extras -> Links (allows creating & editing of links)
Admin -> Extras -> Link Categories (allows creating & editing of categories)
Admin -> Extras -> Links Contact (allows the sending of e-mails)

Double check your install carefully and make sure when you added the sql that it all took. If your not sure, try the copy and paste method section by section from the sql file to see if it got everything. Seems like it didn't.

Yes, I know about that, but that is after the link is submited.
the problems I have is I get lots of "Spamers" submiting "junk links" and would like to try and stop that. if i could get it to check for a link back at time the link is submited, that would stop

admin -> extras -> links

There is a check link button to do that befpre approving the link

You could also use the CAPTCHA mod but make sure to run a file comparison of the links manager related files.

I will try that, but I think they are being hand entered, so having the link back checked when they are submiting would help alot

I've tried searching through this thread for 2 days now & can't find the answer I'm looking for.

So here goes with the really stupid query.......

I'm confused with altering YOUR_TEMPLATE anywhere else other than includes/templates because I'm using a free template that only involved me uploading a folder into the templates folder, there was nothing to upload to any other folder. So I don't know what to do with the folders called YOUR_TEMPLATE in the includes/languages and includes/modules folders.

Can someone please explain this to me as if I'm a five year old? :blink:

What is the name of the template you're using?

free_red

sutikah1:

free_red

Then change ALL of the YOUR_TEMPLATE folders to free_red

includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/YOUR_TEMPLATE/
includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE
includes/languages/english/html_includes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/
includes/modules/YOUR_TEMPLATE/
includes/modules/sideboxes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/

OK. So I change YOUR_TEMPLATE to the appropriate name, ftp the files and add the sql to the database, but.....

when I log in to admin side I get the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in *****/admin/includes/boxes/extra_boxes/links_extras_dhtml.php on line 17

Any ideas?

Yep, just unzip the file and upload the entire admin folder to your server

Line 17 contains nothing but the following:

Thats the end of file marker.

did you upload the file from my last post.

That should take care of the issue

Glad I could help out.

I got a question. I just downloaded the 3.3.1 release and there are no directory folders. All the files are free floating. Is that normal? There's a lot of files and where do they all go?

I'm on a mac if that makes a difference. Thanks
