Just updated package to 2.04

THis is just a minor fix where I made the unknown category hardcoded so it couldnt be deleted or editied. THat way all existing links will appear in unknown if not assigned to a category. In Lizards situation - the unkown category ID was 1 but all his existing links were category 1, therefore they were not appearing (even though they are still there). This fixes it.
To upgrade from 2.03, just replace the GAL_admin.php file. Oh, and rerun the install->phrases path of the new install file to insert the latest phrases.

If Unknown is showing up in your category display (where you can edit/delete) just change the name or delete it as it is not needed anymore.


Thanks. Think we are alomst there ;)

everhthing is working perfect

One quick tip. If you have previous gal and entered some auto link variables you have to edit them , paste the replacement variable and then change the categorie to secopnd unknown. Otherwise it is not autolinking.

Hey Lizard - not sure what you mean.

If there is no global replacement text, or category text, or item text, it should substitute the above for you. (Make sure you have the latest functions_gal.php file).

The replacement order goes:

Is there an item specific code?
yes -> Use it
No -> Is there a category code?
yes-> Use it
No->Is there a global replacement?
Yes->Use it
No->Use hard coded default (the one you posted).

Let me know if that is not how it is working for you.

Hmmm... step 200 and step 300 have to be manually applied.

It's my fault, since I was move the placement of the code, but maybe you can improve it by not searching for:

// *************************************************
if (can_administer('canadminstyles'))

Just search for:

//=== GEEK AUTOLINK step 4.2 ===
$printhr = true;
construct_nav_option($vbphrase['GAL_display'], 'GAL_admin.php');
construct_nav_option($vbphrase['GAL_add_new'], 'GAL_admin.php?do=add');
construct_nav_option($vbphrase['GAL_settings'], 'GAL_admin.php?do=rebuild');
construct_nav_group($vbphrase['GAL_CP']);
//=== /GEEK AUTOLINK ===

That's step 200. Now I'm going to do step 300, report going after...

Step 300 has the same problem, but this is my fault to have extra linebreak after the last comment.

This may break the code if it's the fresh install, but if the previous has been installed and worked, maybe just do the search from the start comment to the last comment is enough.

Just my 2 cents.

After all, it worked :D

Thank you Geek.

Hi Frzzy.

I am stumped as to what you mean. Clean installs are a bit o cake. Upgrading is a little more challenging.
THat said - there are really only 3 file edits at the most anyway.

Did you upgrade from 2.6? I thought you were doing a clean install.

Ya Geek,

I installed 2.6, it work great... then I think maybe it's better if it can popup a tooltip, then I go here and ask for it... then I found out about 3.0 :D

It worked well here... I'm tweaking the replacement code, since I dont' like the "title" attribute tooltip :)

I would love a floating popup tooltip too. Just dont know how to do it.
You should be able to include $post variables as well (like the post id) which may help someone develop that - but once again... Im not sure how.

The way this version has been designed was to give someone the flexability to do that though.

Let me know how you get on.

Interesting... the install went well. Had to do 3 manual edits, but everything else was fine.

The links don't work though. Just plain text now.

How would I go about finding what the problem is? Thanks!
