SMF Links

InfoStrides · November 12, 2009, 03:01:26 PM

I just installed SMF links today and tested with a link. I am unable to approve the link. It keeps redirrecting me to homepage whenever I click on *Approve*.

Please Help!

What version of SMF?

FireDitto · November 12, 2009, 06:24:27 PM

ezPortal may be being difficult to install, but the Links installed beautifully for me and the test link and category also worked wonderfully.

-- SMF 2.0 RC2

I am using SMF 1.1.10 (www.infostridesforum.com). Meanwhile, I encountered "500 Internal Server Error" after I installed it.

Can you access any part of the links system? Does the 500 error still occur?

I have resolved "500 Internal Server Error" but now I have issue with approving links. I can not approve link as Admin.

Pls help!

What was the 500 Internal Server Error's cause, and how did you fix it?
As for approving links, have you tried on multiple accounts, or clearing your cache?

What was the 500 Internal Server Error's cause?
I could not figure out was actually caused it. I knew that SMF links was last installed when I got the error. My host informed that the problem was not from their side.

how did you fix it?
I restored my last backup to fix it.

As for approving links, have you tried on multiple accounts, or clearing your cache?
I tried these but make no difference. Any attempt to approve keeps redirrecting me to homepage.

Please help!

Thank you for the information. I will update my version.

Meanwhile, the major problem is link editing and approval in the admin area. It keeps redirecting me to homepage.

Pls help!

That update should fix that issue.

Thank you. It works fine now. Great mods! You can check it now under 'directory'.

Hi,

I can't seem to get regular members permissions set up so that they can delete or edit their own links.

Tried the mod on V2 RC1.2 & V2 RC2 with the same result. Attached are the settings I have made for the categories and smf permissions.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

vbgamer45 · November 19, 2009, 08:23:57 PM

I belive only admins can modify and delete links

xmh · November 20, 2009, 01:48:05 AM

Hi,

Thanks for clearing that up. it was the edit own link & delete own link columns that threw me.

Any chance they (regular members) could have that option be in a future version ?

Cheers

Hi, I'm installing SMF Links 2.1.2 on a fresh copy of SMF 1.1.11. The install goes off without a hitch, however, when it tries to re-direct to the settings page after applying the mod, I get this error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare showsubcats() (previously declared in /home/<my username>/forum/Sources/Links.php:1454) in /home/<my username>/public_html/unvanquished/forum/Sources/Load.php(1742) : eval()'d code on line 1383

Help! This seems to only affect this version of links, as I previously had an older version installed and working fine before (before I reinstalled SMF).

well, it looks like you have double installed... you will have to manually remove the duplicate code

Yes, that's what the problem was. I had an extra copy of links.php in my theme's folder which was screwing it up. I deleted that and everything worked fine. Thanks!

Glad you got it working!

Hi, I wanted a simple download system for my forum and looked it up in the Modifications but none suits my taste.

I want one that list all the links in one a page and when users click on them, they didnt have to open new window for description and such. so I chose SMF Links to do the trick.

But then I need to change some item:

1. the Menu name to be Download

2. the description for the Category will appear in Category page.

3. maybe some modification for the Mod Menu names (eg: Add Link to be "Add Download", etc) as well.

if you need more information, let me know.

thanks in advance.
