Adding Weblinks Not Working

New Member Joined: Aug 25, 2003 Posts: 20 Location: UK

I have just noticed that when I add a new link, I get the New Link added to the database page, but when I check to see if it is there, it's not. I still have 184 links in my database. I have re-installed my nuke 6.9 with your latest version, however the problem still persists. Any ideas please. Crying or Very sad

I just tried it on the 6.9 package from my site and it went right in after approving the link in the admin panel. Is it possible that you had installed something that modified your web link table? Check your server error log to see if there are any errors being logged.

I have modified the table with Paladin's Web Links Module, however I do not use this now. 6.9 over wrote this anyway, do you think I need to delete the table it added Question

You overrode the FILES, but did you reinstall the database tables? If not, then the table is still in the modified state but the files are the original 6.9. Just drop the columns that his hack added.

Thanks Raven, I have dropped the column and whilst I was there I dropped a couple of other redundant tables (first time at this, learning all the time), however the problem is still persisting, any more ideas please

There are 6 tables associated with the links module. You will need to compare the layout of all 6 tables to the virgin 6 tables and make sure they are exactly the same.

Raven you are the best, thank you, I had 7 tables and an image column in links. I got rid of them and all is working fine. Thank You Very Happy
