Thanks SMFHacks

I sort of rough 'I love SMF' it ....


I copied this from the default Index.template.php

// the [links] button
   if ($context['allow_view_smflinks'])
      echo ($current_action == 'links' || $context['browser']['is_ie4']) ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $first . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '' , '
            <td valign="center" class="menubg' , $current_action == 'links' ? '2' : '' , '">
               <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=links">' , $txt['smflinks_menu']  , '</a>
            </td>' , $current_action == 'links' ? '<td class="maintab_active_' . $last . '">&nbsp;</td>' : '';


and pasted into the Dilber Index.template.php 
then altered to match other Dilber menu items as such;

// the [links] button
   if ($context['allow_view_smflinks'])
      echo'
            <td align="center" class="menubg' , $current_action == 'links' ? '2' : '' , '">
            
               <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=links">' , $txt['smflinks_menu']  , '</a>
            </td>';


note: make sure to change <td valign to <td align to have text centered horizontally instead of vertically.

 
then added 'links' to this section

// Work out where we currently are.

   $current_action = 'home';

   if (in_array($context['current_action'], array('admin', 'ban', 'boardrecount', 'cleanperms', 'detailedversion', 'dumpdb', 'featuresettings', 'featuresettings2', 'findmember', 'maintain', 'manageattachments', 'manageboards', 'managecalendar', 'managesearch', 'membergroups', 'modlog', 'news', 'optimizetables', 'packageget', 'packages', 'permissions', 'pgdownload', 'postsettings', 'regcenter', 'repairboards', 'reports', 'serversettings', 'serversettings2', 'smileys', 'viewErrorLog', 'viewmembers')))

$current_action = 'admin';

   if (in_array($context['current_action'], array('search', 'admin', 'calendar', 'profile', 'mlist', 'register', 'login', 'help', 'pm', 'links')))

      $current_action = $context['current_action'];

   if ($context['current_action'] == 'search2')

      $current_action = 'search';

   if ($context['current_action'] == 'theme')

      $current_action = isset($_REQUEST['sa']) && $_REQUEST['sa'] == 'pick' ? 'profile' : 'admin';


anyhow, it seems to work ok, can you see any faults ?

That's the code looks good from what I see.

Theres something wrong with the links.template.php i think.
The title of url-field is placed in the dropdown of categorie.
The url-field is out of the table

Go to Links.templete.php and search for:

Code:

$row['ID_CAT'] == $catid) ? 'selected="selected" ' : '') .' ">'

replace with:

Code:

$row['ID_CAT'] == $catid) ? 'selected="selected" ' : '') .'>'

There is an extra " in the optionmenu that throws off the display.

I really like this Mod, and so do my users, however, there are a few requests for changes/improvements coming in from them.

Several of my forum users wish that the Links manager would allow for links to be in multiple categories without having to enter the link multiple times.

Another request is some sort of control on it, so that folks cannot click on a link multiple times within a specified time frame (i.e. artificially increasing the # of visits count)

Top Five lists - another request came in from my users to allow for changing the number of links in the Visits and the Ratings lists, and to be able to paginate them when there are too many (i.e. they want to go through and be able to look at all of the links in order). -- Note: for this one, I just added a new sub-action which takes them to a page that shows all of the links in 2 lists (Rated and Hits). You can see this on my site at http://www.ironcrown.com/ICEforums





I told them that I would ask.....

[stefanp]

thx - with the above code the "add-links-form" rox now

[SMFHacks]

Thanks updated the mod with the fix.

When I install it, I get the following error message

Code:

Fatal error: packageinstall() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/dutchmilli/domains/dutch-military.nl/public_html/schuuring/Packages/temp/./linksql.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/dutchmilli/domains/dutch-military.nl/public_html/schuuring/Sources/Packages.php on line 540

Version 1.6
Sorting of links on link display.
Added new layout for the admin panel.
Separated settings, categories, category permissions and approve links to their own sections in the admin panel.
Added page listing to approve links.
Added category level permissions for adding, editing, deleting and viewing links.
Added settings to toggle what information is shown on link display
Added Subcategories
Started basic support for Alexa and PageRank still need to make the functions work.

If permissions are already set for each group do we still need to give permissions within the links mod itself?


when I checked the actual admin permissions it took away all my group permissions to only allow view links....

now what happens when I click them all again that I originally had set?


What has more power, the links permissions in the links mod or the admin permissions in the admin cp?

There are also many more options for permissions in the admin cp rather than just the 4 in the links mod permissions....why?

[SMFHacks]

You do not need reset the permissions. The category permissions are if you want to disable a global permission on a category level.

Hi,
 just installed SMF Links 1.5 last week into Dilber MC theme

V 1.6 sounds good, sub-categories and sorting display is just what we need - good work people...


Anywhow, I've uploaded 1.6 to our forum, but it recommends I uninstall the old version or get an upgrade version to install?

If I uninstall 1.5, do we lose the existing links?

Whats the best way to upgrade to 1.6

[SMFHacks]

I would unstiall since new tables are created and tables altered.

All links and information will remain if you unistall the old version so you are safe.

[doc-com]

Thanks SMF Hacks,
1.6 works a treat - I'm sure the members will love it too 

one problem I just noticed; when I log out and visit as a guest, i'm unable to view any links in the categories, just get this message

Database Error
Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator.

This is despite having approval in membergroup permissions; I've added the link category permissions and that makes no difference, guest still can't view or add links.

I also changed theme back to default, but problem still exists

[Jump1979man]

yep....

Database Error
Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator. 

me too.....something is wrong with the mod.
