Can it also be included a section so as we can show our own affiliation buttons for peeps to use?
I have 5 buttons available and I need to go to each site to let them know to use it.

Yeah I can prolly do that. I'll try and add it in this version also.

I was going to port it to 3.0.x, but had problems, perhaps sometime when I have time I will try porting it again.

After upgrading to the most recent version, I'm having a problem with the links it provides.

If I go to edit a site, they all show the in.php?id=1. The ID number doesn't change.

If I go into the AdminCP, the Site ID is different for each one.

So if the ID in the link always shows as 1, won't the "in" links all get counted towards the site with ID 1?

Is there a way to fix this?

[derekivey]

I suggest you try reimporting the xml file (select yes to overwrite), and perhaps reuploading the php files for the hack. Let me know if that helps at all.

Tried that, same result.

Can you give me a URL to your site so I can take a look? If you don't want to post the URL here, you can PM me it if you want.

Thanks,
Derek

The direct link to the TopList is: http://www.naughtyconfessions.net/toplist.php

It works fine for the out.php links.

If you edit a site and click on the button after you're done editing, the link that appears in the box to link back is wrong, it always shows id=1.

It works fine for new sites that are added...just not the sites I had before the upgrade.

I also get this MySQL error when I try to rate a site:

MySQL Error : Table 'database.toplist_ratings' doesn't exist
