wtf does this mean? "Thats a pants link and you know it!"

I am getting this as well. I think it's only when u don't have stats to show.

Lizard - is it still happening? It looks ok from here. Try debug->rebuild and see if that helps.

7th - Ill sort the missing phrase. If it looks like the link isnt valid - it lets you know.

And yes - the stats throw up an error if there is no info. Ill fix these this morning.

Thanks guys

Geek, how can I make calendar events display autolinks? If that is at all possible? I post events in calendar and people can comment on them. I tried to put in 'smiliecache', 'gal_text', 'gal_links', 'gal_ignores','GAL_settings', in the special templates, but that does not work.

I sorted it out. Thanks geek :) Waiting for the fix and you did an awesome job. This version is pretty good.

lionel - you should only have to put:

$linked_text=process_gal_text($text_wanting_to_be_ linked);

whereever you want text to get linked. You will also need to put

persist_gal_impressions();

Somewhere on that page if you want to record tracking info. Put it before print_output but after all the linking is done.

HTH's

New release will be later today. I am just waiting on any other bugs to fix first.

Hum, when I put that in calendar.php I get a blank page. I also have not upgraded yet.

you mean to 4.0?

Only 4.0 will allow you to do that command.

Got you. Thanks, will do it later.

Nice, hack, do you have any direct url so i can see it working?

Nice looking site too.

Getting an error when I edit the showthread.php

TTG are you sure you made all the edits in showthread. I checked right now and didn't get any error.
I think there are 2 file edits in showthread.

ttg - check the file edit to global. And make sure the files are all uploaded.

That was the one I missed .. thanks The Geek :)

Well after some harsh testing I can not find any other errors on my side.

I find the pop up takes cr returns dubble when you only put single.

I think you should have a switch. HTML VB or TXT. txt has a fixed box size.

Ummm the link name should show up in the display box. or at least with the discription. after you change it you may for get... oh yeah this link is cars.

I did this with 35 links in frames and out of frames. the _self tag works so... seems cool.

I wish I knew css I would love a more fancy box. I seen some sexy ones here and there on sites.

I also was thinking for my self I would like the link to be a solid background.
Some sites have that. I wish I could show you an example. but say instead of a underline the whole background of the link is blue.

catches the eye better I find.

If this honestly with the clicktru's and all that isnt Hack of the month they should just close this place down.

This and a few others (since this IS Geeks thread) are like the bests ones on here.

This can make you money if your smart.

Hint for the Google people. No money in that.... the word you want to learn is affiliate. BELIVE me.

Help. I did the upgrade, checked twice, everything looks good, but step 300 in functions_showthread is causing me to have a blank page

OK I got it to work by saving one link again. Not sure if it's because I made that one expire. But I do have another problem: When I select all categories, it is checking all, then I save and look again, half of them is unchecked.

Hum, found out why: forumids varchar(255). That takes care of only half of my forums, specially they have 3 digits IDs :-)

What is going on? I unselected some forums, selected some more, and I am getting blank showthread again.

I went back to select all, it is giving me a blank page for all those selected. Since half of them although selected could not be selected, those display, but of course not the autolink.

This appears to behave like if there are no autolinks in the page, showthread will not display.

click debug->rebuild and let me know if that helps.

debug shows empty earlier. Now I get some:

Find #((\bAssociated Press\b)s?)#im
Replace <a href='autolink.php?id=10{TRACK_HITS}' target='_blank' class='DEF' onmouseover='GAL_popup(this,1, "International <!--GAL_REMOVAL-->News <!--GAL_REMOVAL-->Agency", "border: 1pt solid;background: #FFFFCC;padding: 1px;font: 8pt;", "0", " Associated Press", "border: 1pt solid;background: #FFFFCC;padding: 1px;font: 8pt;", "0");' onmouseout='GAL_hidepopup();'>$1</a>

Debug/rebuild seemed to help. About the forums list being too long, can I put "*" directly in db to make it for all? I am missing half the forums.

Change the datatype of forumid in geek_autolink_cats from varchar(255) to mediumtext

That will sort it (this has been changed in the next update)

Geek, thank you very much. This is truly an amazing mod.

When I add a new category only half of the forums are checked, clicking "check all" and save does nothing ?

Links don't work any longer. All worked well with version 3, can I re-install version 3 or will that create more problems ?

you have to change forums table from varchar(255) into mediumtxt and debug/rebuild

Thanks Lionel .. that solved it.

Looks like the ignore function is giving me a hard time. I created an article in gas, then tried to autolink and placed the threadid in ignore, but it is displaying as linked in article.

AH HA! I found something new. (maybe its not) in the Link description if you put a "'" the popup will disapear...

example.
Title Ain't worth it!
Expires Month
- - -

Ain't will make the pop-up title well the whole pop up not pop up.
say that two times fast!

thanks - ill look into it.

Ignoreid is a known issue - its sorted for next release (same with the forumids problem).

I think I have it all pretty much licked. Im just messing about with the stats layout then Ill release 1 more package.

OK Geek, got it working in calendar. Sorry for posting in wrong thread earlier.

no prob - I actually didnt notice until after I had posted :)

People are already driving me crazy. We use accents in my language. So I must enter double entries, because sometimes they do Hérard and sometimes just Herard. Is there a way to avoid the double entries and ignore accents?

GAL4.0 supports multiple entries so you can put:

bob,bobby

for 1 entry. Each entry needs to be seperated by a comma.
Damn good thing Im psycic and figured you needed that feature :)

God! Give me 6 lotto numbers.

now (this member of vbulletin.org) tells us!

excellent hack.

I do have a minor problem.I can't get the ordinal to work.It didnt work with 3.0 version either for me.

Example i have

ordinal 1 - Keyword Phrase
ordinal 2 - Keyword

No matter what it does ordinal 2. Ive tried debug.

Am i doing somthing wrong?

you certain keyword phrase would qualify in the instance you site? Seems to work from my end. Can you try several tests?

pm sent with test url.

Wonderful Hack as usual from The Geek and atlast i have a gr8 glossary option at my hands. Thanks a ton.

i have this warning message showing consistantly when i click Display in Admin CP.:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /admincp/GAL_admin.php on line 1146

Is there anyway, where i have no need to enter an url e.g. if the link is to be used as a Glossary, i need no link but just the yellow box coz if leave the link option blank i am shown the "pants" :nervous: message ??

Best Regards
