Sorry that you feel this way - I am clearly doing something wrong in offering our members access to several hundred files by using this hack! I think that the only possible confusion is that the "files" are not stored in the database, only the location of the files. Storing lots of files in a database is generally not good practice anyway because of the size problems.

An uploader is deliberately not part of the hack, as I did not want to get into all the issues of security management that it will create. There is plenty of software available to handle secure file uploading into web site directories, or into secure directories outside the web structure. Of course, there's nothing to stop anyone providing a separate hack to achieve this, but I want to resist any extensions *to this hack*.

don't get me wrong.. i think your hack is great and i'm sure i'll end up clicking install and using it. i'm just not sure for what at this point.

Well...

I love this hack. so there!!

Now for the upload, I'm going to make me alittle something something using the httpupload hack.

I've used that for sig uploads and a couple of other things, why not this. I'll let you know what I come up with.

jugo out

LMAO...Who says that!?!?!?

i'm sorry if this was already covered in another post, but.....

is there any way to tell who added the link? i hate everything being so anonymous.

other than that.. i've managed a configuration. i wish i could do coding to get it to do what i want... (have an uploader on the add page that automatically places the link in the text box after uploading.)

Yes, it would be great to be able to display the username of the person who added the link.

Thanks

I'm rather busy, so the next release will be a couple of weeks still.

In the meantime, those who want to display submitting username might try this. Just replace the links_linkbit template with the attached. Please let me know if this is what you're wanting, or if Ive got the wrong message.

The submitting username and #hits are only visible to usergroups which you give can_view_hits privilege (see links admin page)
