I'm really confused! While there is an Arabic translation for this mod, I can not add utf8 characters within it. All non English characters turn into question marks. Please somebody help me. This is the second time I'm asking for tips.

When does this happen? After the entries have been saved?

Right when I save category names and descriptions, both in frontend and backend.

Hm, I might have an idea, I'll get back to you...

Hi,

When I try and add a link it tries to open a php (vblinklist.php) file to download???!!

I've cmd the required php to 777 as per install instructions!

Any idea why its doing this?

Running vb 4.1.1

I wrote that you need to cmd the directories, i didnt write anything about vblinklist.php ;)

Just redo it and dont cmd it to 777 and try again.

vBulletin Link Directory has been updated to Version 1.0.4. This version is a bugfix only, only the widget for some statistics and a random entry has been added as a new function.

The HTML-Options and the UTF8-problem have not been involved in this bugfix release and will be done with 1.0.5 in a few days.

Vossi, Forgive me... I am fairly new at this. First off... what does cmd to 777 do? I installed this today and all seems to be working fine. I am not using CMS so I am fairly sure I don't need to update with the widget fix. What is the random entry? I didn't see anything about random entry in the version I installed earlier today. Also.. is there a way to moderate new entries? I have it set to notify me via PM with new entries... but I didn't see an option to moderate them before publishing.

Thanks!

You dont have to add the widget, but you should make an update to 1.0.4 to get ridd of some bugs. Installing the widget is optional.

cmd 777 gives write permission to a directory. This is needed by the server to let addons write data into it like images etc.

How it will use " widget-vblinklist.xml "
