Hi
I have seen a few phpdirectory driven sites that have the following message after the reciprocal link entry

"To validate the reciprocal link please include the following HTML code in the page at the URL specified above, before submiting this form:"

Is this a built in function or a mod, how to i get this to work?

thanks

its a built in function,

basically if a user submits a recipricol link they copy the code in the box onto a page on thier website.

this pages url should then added to the box above the recipricol link before the user clicks submit.

once submit is clicked and both fields are filled in phpld will check that the link is present & valid.

if not there submission is deactivated (ie no longer in directory) until which time they replace the link on thier site.

Recipricol links are checked from the admin control panel under validate links which checks all the recipricol links in what ever category you want to check

hope this helps

yep that helps, but how do you get the code to display that can be used for a link back, nothing appears for me
