Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Link Checker Bot

Custom Link Checker Bot 1.0

I have decided to code my own link checker bot.

This link Checker Checks links from....

• Rapidshare
• Mediafire
• Megaupload
• Easy-Share
• Netload
• Depositfiles

To install....

1. Upload all of the files in the "upload" folder

2. Open the product-dlc.xml in Notepad or Wordpad.

3. Place your forum username in every username="" tag you see.

4. After that you can import the product.

5. Setting up a cron to make it run automatically. Set up the cron here. admincp>scheduled tasks>add new scheduled task

Use these variables.

Varname: dead_link_checker

Title: Dead Link Checker Bot

Description: Checks for dead links and adds them to graveyard

Log Phrase: dead_link_checker

Set how often you want it to run

Then

Filename: ./includes/cron/dlc.php

Great Mod for my site...

Mr. Gecko (the developer) has disabled this add on to where it doesn't validate anything as bad... If you would like this plugin to work, follow these instructions.
1 Make sure your php can use fopen to open websites.
2 Make a php file on your site and put this in it.

<?
error_reporting(0);
$url = isset($_REQUEST['url']) ? trim($_REQUEST['url']) : "";
header("Content-Type: text/plain");
$mime = "";
if ($file = fopen($url, "r")) {
   $fileInfo = stream_get_meta_data($file);
   for ($h=0; $h<count($fileInfo['wrapper_data']); $h++) {
       $headers = explode(";", strtolower($fileInfo['wrapper_data'][$h]));
       for ($d=0; $d<count($headers); $d++) {
           $header = $headers[$d];
           if (preg_match("/content-type:/i", $header)) {
               $mime = trim(str_replace("content-type:", "", $header));
           }
       }
   }
   fclose($file);
   echo $mime;
}
?>

3 In the cron file, find curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"http://gecko.myusers.info/mime.php?url=".urlencode($val3)); and replace it with curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"http://YOURDOMAIN/YOURPATH.php?url=".urlencode($val3)); of course replacing the YOURDOMAIN and YOURPATH with the right data.

Mr. Gecko doesn't mind you using the plugin, but he does mind you using his server for checking things as it takes his bandwidth. Do not ask Mr. Gecko for help as this is all he is giving you guys... Please take to mind that this was written in 2007 and may have loads of problems still.
