Can no delete entries moderate.php location.

[zelnik]

I'm getting various url structure issues but I think once one is fixed they all will be...

When you try to delete an entry it comes up with the proper url structure for moderate.php ie www.mysite.com/forum/links/moderate.php and it brings up the do you wish to soft or perm delete.

I've selected perm delete and click on submit then we get a file not found on server problem and I've noticed it is now looking for the file in completely the wrong link/directory : www.mysite.com/moderate.php

I have tried it with spider friendly users enabled and disabled and with vbseo disabled and it still does it!

[zelnik]

I've tried copying moderate.php to the root directory and I just get a blank screen and still no deletion of entries.

url is correct in config.php too

[zelnik]

dump?!!

Where's the official support gone?

[claystation]

I also have this problem as well. I really need to fix this ASAP any ideas?

This is yet another issue introduced by vBulletin with the release of v4.1.4. A new version of vBa Links is in the works and will be released as soon as it is ready.

[dihuta]

I also have this issue.

[zelnik]

Well this problem is STILL in your new 4.2.3 version

[Brian]

Did you run the "Upgrade" option from the admincp/vbalinks_install.php file after uploading the v4.2.3 files?? Have you customized any of your vBa Links templates?

[claystation]

I also have this issue still after upgrade to 4.2.3. I did run the admincp upgrader too.

And the only other issue I have is the RSS links are screwed up they are double links. I can send you a link if you would like.
Thanks for your time,
Andy

[zelnik]

yep ran the upgrader too after uploading all the files.

[Brian]

I'm not sure what might still be causing an issue, but if one of you would like to submit a support ticket via the Members' Area then I'll be glad to take a look at things for you.

I know the reason why:

<meta id="e_vb_meta_bburl" name="vb_meta_bburl" content="http://www.mydomain.vn" /> <base href="/" />

This value is wrong, it should be http://www.mydomain.vn/links and /links
Anh your links are in "showlinks.php", "moderate.php",.. style. These are relative links, they will be wrong. They should be in absolute links.


Please fix it.
Thank you.

[dihuta]

Is there any quick fix, Brian?
I can not delete or edit any link now.

Thanks.

[claystation]

Hey I submitted a ticket a couple of days ago, just like you asked above. I am yet to hear from anybody. I don't mind waiting but please let me know when you might be able to help.
Thanks,
Andy

This is just silly, what happens if a spammers adds a pornsite to our links directory and we can not remove it???

Please fix ASAP.

You are still able to delete entries in the database.

[zelnik]

not if you're a novice ramses!

[Ramses]

Ok, most people have access to phpmyadmin go to there and choose your database where your link directory is in (set in config.php).
Look for the table adv_links, click on show and all links are listed.
There you can edit or delete links.
I'm sure Brian is working hard on the issues and will be back soon.

[Brian]

There's no need for phpMyAdmin. The only place this is a problem is on the "Edit Link" page. You can also use the inline moderation tools, or when viewing a link you can simply click the "Admin Options" menu near the top-right and select "Delete Link" from there.

Or to correct the issue on the "Edit Link" page, you will need to look in your links/addlink.php file for this code:

PHP Code:

            $templater = vB_Template::create('adv_links_deletebit');
            $templater->register('link', $link);
            $deleteoption = $templater->render(); 


And replace it with this:

PHP Code:

            $templater = vB_Template::create('adv_links_deletebit');
            $templater->register('link', $link);
            $templater->register('vba_options', $vba_options);
            $deleteoption = $templater->render();

Sure, if there's a fix available there is no need for it. But without a fix and if it is urgent to delete something it can be a way.
B.t.w. your fix doesn't work for deleting comments.
