Welcome, Nintentdo! 8)
I would be happy to help you. I haven't seen this error before.
Any chance I can get in there and take a look?
(ex. ftp, db)

Thanks,
David

[Optimit]

Oh man. Who let the Wacko in here!

[Nintendo]

OK, I found it. Some files had the ending of the file name cut off, when the file names were larger than 32 characters. For example

validate_criteria.dummyValid.ph

I got it installed now.

[David]

Cool. I heard your reputation precedes you over at DP. :)
(not sure if good or bad)
I don't know you very well, but once again, welcome. :)

[Nintendo]

A few more bugs....

Is there a way to get rid of the Confirmation code when registering?

That'll describe my reputation!! :D

[Optimit]

Nintendo, what version of phpLD is this?

[David]

Judging by submit.php, he must be running 3.03.

[Optimit]

If he is running 3.03, he will need Boby's submit fix.

[Nintendo]

3.03

To get an account working that's create in admin, I have to go in to phpMyAdmin and in

ACTIVE tinyint(4)

Change 0 to 1.

[Optimit]

Nintendo, There are some bugs with 3.03. 3.04 will be out very soon, and will take care of that stuff. In the mean time, here are some fixes that have been released for 3.03.


This is going to look like a lot, but it does not take much time.

And even more.

[Nintendo]

Got those changed, and got rid of making visitors register to fix the image stuff, looks like it couldn't read the fonts.

Is there a fix for

Require reciprocal link: No

{Wacko SEO Directory Submit}

still shows the

anthonycea hates it when Reciprocal Link is required!!!

[David]

The way you have it setup, a reciprocal link is not required. It is optional.
Regarding the captcha, your host does not support GD with Free Type. The two solutions are switching to 3.0 or switching hosts.

[Nintendo]

'Really simple image verification' got the image to work.

shows up in pink, after submiting a link at

{Wacko SEO Directory Submit}

[anthonycea]

Dave we know it is optional, but we do not want mention of reciprocals or the code on the submission form, can you give us code without this for the form?

I hate reciprocal link directories (link farms) and you should give the option in the software for different submission forms and users should be able to disable all reciprocal link options in the interface where they do not appear in the forms!

You do have the option to not use reciprocol links. You can set it from within the admin panel.

If you don't want the 'reciprocol' text to be seen on the form, go into your submit.tpl and around the row for the reciprocol text use {* *}

to not show it, but make sure you've first defined everything correctly.

Rob

[Nintendo]

That's taken out. You just get

Content visible to registered users only.

after trying to submit a link on the public side!!! (It was like that before taking that code out.)

[David]

Don't mark my words, but I think 3.04 does this.
So if Recip as an option is turned off, then it doesn't even display it.

[anthonycea]

Please help Nintendo get this running Dave, we have 300 domains to put up! :shock:

[Optimit]

I am sure David will do what he can, but I think you are asking for a mod to made, as the feature you are asking for is not standard on phpLD.

[anthonycea]

No, we are asking you guys to help us to get the script to work, users can not submit a link without getting an error message, see Nintendo's last post!

[Optimit]

BTW, Are you planning on using 3.03 on all 300 domains?

[anthonycea]

No, we are not going to use it at all until we are sure we can get it working!

We have had a lot of problems with other scripts, this is the third one and we are having problems with this one now!

[Optimit]

You are asking for any hint of reciprocal linking to be taken out, or disabled. That is not standard on phpLD. Therefore, a mod would have to be made to accomodate.

[anthonycea]

I don't understand why you guys are late to the show, you must have heard that reciprocal link directories are being devalued and are mostly considered link farms, we need this option, we don't want to run reciprocal link farms!

At this time we just want to take it out of the public area and get the link submission form to work without giving errors!

LOL, anthony, I am not going to get into another debate with you over directories and link farming.

3.03 works perfectly, with the fixes that I have given you in the thread already.

If you want the script to do something that it was not designed to do. ie... take out all recip code, then you are asking for a mod to be made. It can be done, but you will have to get someone here to make it for you, and they usually dont do mods for free.

Hey Nintendo,

lets try this to make sure we have everything set up correctly.

in your admin panel:
1. System-->Edit Settings-->Link Sumbit--> **Require reciprocal link: make sure it is set to No.

2. System-->Edit Settings-->Payment--> *Recpr. price:
Make sure that is set to 0 (zero)

Check to see if you need a reciprocol on submitting now.
If everything checks out for you, then go ahead again and use the {* *} i suggested in my initial post.

I hope this works for you.

Rob

[Nintendo]

I had done all that.

fixed it. I think everything works unless anthonycea finds something else!!!!

[anthonycea]

Please guys, I just want you to develop something other than scripts that are nothing but link farm scripts, reciprocal schemes do not work, they will get your directories banned in addition the users of reciprocol link farms!

Please change the new scripts so publishers can buy the version without reciprocal linking, ok! :?:

Great.

I just wanted to make sure everything was properly set. I remember when I first went to set things up to mess around, i had to catch myself a few times. ;)

Hi Anthony,

Have you purchased phpLD yet?

I'm not aware of any phpLD sites that have been banned (and there are thousands!).

Thanks,
David

[anthonycea]

So you think the future is reciprocal link directories David :?:

I don't, I think they are disasters waiting to happen!

Why do you think I am asking you for software without this included :?:

These scripts (SEO link scripts that automatically reciprocate) are nothing but link farms and no one really wants them if they value long term rankings and you know it!

[David]

Ok, awesome. Just give me access to a single domain where you have a copy of 3.03 running, and I will help. So you are planning to buy multiple licenses?

Irony?

oh how I love it! :lol:

[anthonycea]

We just bought one, who do you think sent Nintendo here Dave, Santa Claus :?:

See this thing on reciprocal links being link farms is no secret, you guys need to listen to me, here is a directory operator that values his property and does not want it devalued.

I purchased it for a domain that he has. wackoseo.com is actually his domain!! Why he picked a wacko to set his sites up, I'll never know!!! :D

[Optimit]

Well...It is good that it is now working for you. These things get a bit tricky sometimes, and all they need is a little adjustment... Every host seems a bit different, and phpLD seems to run on almost all, but those little adjustments can get frustrating.

Well, then I think we can end this discussion, because I PROMISE this will be available shortly, but I will need a few days.
Ex. No recip dialogue on submit form if not selected in admin

Thanks,
David
