But I don't see why?

Take for example this one from the same folder, it loads fine.

Can you try temporarily removing that redirect thing and see if it works then?

I found it. The files had the wrong owner permissions and could only be read by the server.

Ok, Great! Glad it's working now.

Hi folks,

Quick question: is it possible to add another protocol to the url validation?

I found this in the add_site.php and edit_site.php:

PHP Code:

//------------------------------------------------------------
// Make Sure the URL Submitted is Valid.
//------------------------------------------------------------
            $check_url = substr($vbulletin->GPC['url'], 0, 7);
            
            
            if ($check_url == "http://")
            { 


My knowledge of IF arguments faded with the selling of my Amiga 12 years ago, I hope someone can whip up an example.

Would like to add two more protocols for radio and chat.


The link check will have to be disabled off course (shame, briliant feature)


Thanks!

Try replacing

if ($check_url == "http://")

With:

if ($check_url == "http://" OR $check_url == "protocol://")

Replace protocol with the protocol.

If the protocol is longer than http, you will have to add another $check_url var (different name though, and change the 7 to the total amount of characters including the :// part.

Thanks that worked!

Is it possible to do this:

if ($check_url == "http://" OR $check_url == "protocol1://" OR $check_url == "protocol2://")

You would have to make a new $check_url variable (with a different name), and change the 7 in the function to the number of characters of the protocol you want to check.
