3.5.4 and vbadvanced 2.1.0

i have never had a problem with this b4

i upgraded to the most current one

now i get all sorts of problems....come to think of it i didn't have vbadvance on here b4....

my add link is all messed up

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: param_upload() in /home/content/T/y/e/Tyegurl/html/vBulletin/local_links.php on line 608

okay i reallize that vbadvance likes full urls so is this my problem and where do i correct and with what lol



and this is line 608

hmmm.....

future suggestion:

need to make so you can exclude Featured Site from appearing in categories (of choice)....it can be confusing or sometimes...just not appropriate to appear.

here's a strange idea that occured to me...

If you remove the need to have a file/url/image uploaded, and just have a post, what you have is a very simple article system (with a good template done up for it).

Maybe a little checkbox to turn off the need for a file/url?

i see...thanks for the confirmation! i supposed according to your post, if 2.1.6rc is proven to be free from problems, it'll be released as the next stable version when you come back from your trip? my question is, probably a stupid one. if i upgrade from 2.1.2 to the next stable version, i won't lose the current uploaded files right?

btw, thanks a lot for the help offered and the great hack! enjoy your trip!

Probably a stupid question but I've just upgraded to the 2.16RC from a 2.13 and when I try to add an image to a an entry it throws up this error:

Which setting is this refering to?

I had an issue when I upgraded, I re-uploaded the files, and re-ran the product, and it fixed them.



I upgraded from 2.1.0 and lost nothing.

I haven't checked through this thread, so this may already have been brought up:

Someone submitted a link to my site, and it always fails checking, and shows as broken, but the link does work fine - the only way around getting it to work correctly was to go in to the database and manually change it from a zero to a one.

Is this just an isolated issue or something pretty usual?

Great hack, thanks so much :)

The fatal call to param_upload is the give away. You have not uploaded all the code - specifically, you have not uploaded the new local_links_include.php, as the param_upload routine changed name between some of the recent releases.

Just upload all the code, rerun the product installer (probably best to tell it to uninstall then to install) and you should be ok.

There are some urls that do work fine but do not respond to LDM's validation check. This is because the site has blocked the use of the piece of code that is used to validate the link. Sometimes, if you use the cURL interface rather than the fopen() interface, it works better - if you don't understand this, then perhaps not worth trying, but if you do understand, then check to see if your php installation includes the curl library.

Aha - there already is one - ldm/admin/settings/allow_null_links
