Bug:
Date formatting on pop_links.asp, mine is showing in US type format instead of UK, ie mm/dd/yyyy instead of dd/mm/yyyy, the posted date on links.asp is correct though.

My forum date setting is UK Med, doesn't look like pop_links.asp is using this whilst links.asp is.<

The next update will include:
Description field will be memo
URL field size will be 255 chars

If you people would like an option to define the max length of the description and/or URL field let me know.

Also, I would really appreciate your suggestions regarding the MySQL issue, as I posted on page 1 of this topic:
quote:
Yes, this was already a problem with LM2.
I'm not sure how I'll solve this; I don't want to release a extra MOd for MySQL users, it will be available as one package.
I could include some code to the dbs file to drop the SHOW table and create a SHOWLINKS table. (The problem would be - a default value of 0 would mean you'll have to approve all your links again)
Let me know what you think about this.

In "inc_func_links.asp", change line 384 to read:

I think that I found a bug. When I turn on the Banner URL option then add a link but do not add a banner url and just hit submit I get the following error:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d'

Type mismatch: 'cint'

/forum/links.asp, line 845

When I use the drop down and select a banner size but still do not enter a URL the submission works. Is there a way to have the banner URL turned on but with an option for no banner.<

In "links.asp", you duplicated strFormBanner definitions twice. Also, strLMShowBanner isn't being read. Banners don't show up regardless of who's trying to access the link.<

OneWayMule,
do you need banner sizes to be selected? can you not just remove the option and display the banner without height and width attributes, I know it'll work in IE but not sure about other browsers? Just might make it easier for users and allow any size banner.<

Where exactly? It does work for me.

Done. If you do not select a image size, no with/height attributes are used. (Size is still required if the image is set to required)

Not sure when, but I plan to go through the code this weekend.
I don't think you could mess up your forum by installing this MOD... just make a backup of your files before you make any changes and read the installation instructions carefully.
Also, I always try to include upgrade instructions.

The version is now v3.0 Beta 2
Changes:
- The fixes above
- the URL field has now a size of 255 characters
- the DESCRIPTION field is now memo (no limit, let me know if you want a option to set a max value)
- Upgrade instructions included

Please go to the first post for the download link.

Again, thanks everyone for the great bug-hunting! <

I did the upgrade and added catagories. When I went to add some links I got some screwy stuff...
----------------------------------------------------------
INSERT INTO FORUM_LINKS (NAME, URL, KEYWORD, DESCRIPTION, EMAIL, POST_DATE, BANNER_URL, HIT, CATEGORY, PARENT_ID, SHOW, BADLINK, RATING, VOTES, MEMBER_ID, LAST_UPDATE, BANNER_SIZE, THELANGUAGE) values('Cosby''s Custom Gunsmithing', 'http://www.cosbyscustomgunsmithing.com', ' ', 'Custom and General Gunsmithing', 'jbc@sixgunner.com', '20030731195711', 'http://', 0, 0, 4, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, '20030731195711', -1, 14)
-------------------------------------------------------------

This is displayed on the page. It doesn't do anything else. What should I do? Any thoughts?

I followed your instructions to the "T"

Thanks for your help!<

I am also getting the same error after submitting a link. I just upgraded from beta 1 to beta 2. I copied inc_func_links.asp, links.asp, pop_links.asp, admin_links and dbs_links_beta1upbeta2.asp. After I ran the DBS update I tried to submit a link I got an error smiliar to Comicozzi's above.

INSERT INTO FORUM_LINKS (NAME, URL, KEYWORD, DESCRIPTION, EMAIL, POST_DATE, BANNER_URL, HIT, CATEGORY, PARENT_ID, SHOW, BADLINK, RATING, VOTES, MEMBER_ID, LAST_UPDATE, BANNER_SIZE, THELANGUAGE) values('Knights of the Dragon Home', 'http://www.kotd.net', 'knights, dragons', 'My homepage', ' ', '20030731194656', 'http://', 0, 21, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, '20030731194656', -1, 14)<
