BigWhat - Integration Issue

BigWhat - Integration Issue
Greetings,

I've been experiencing some problems trying to integrate the BigWhat plugin into my LinksSQL site...

When passing &bw=1 into search.cgi, I always get no results of any type (LinksSQL or BigWhat)..

When setting to "2" (Show in all searches), without &bw=1 on search.cgi's URL call, I always get no results of any type.

When setting to "1" (show only when missing), without &bw=1 on search.cgi's URL call, I always get no results of any type.

Am I missing something simple here?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Bryan

Are you using the bigwhat tag like this in search_results.html:

<%if link_results%><%link_results%><%else%><%bigwhat_results%><%endif%>

Hi,

Hmm, it works here. Can you try editing admin/Plugins/BigWhat.pm and change:

my $results = GT::URI::HTTP->get ($url);

to:

my $results = GT::URI::HTTP->get ($url);
print $IN->header;
use GT::Dumper;
print "<pre>$url => ", Dumper($results), "</pre>";

and see what it prints out. I should add this to the debug mode.

Cheers,

Alex

Hi,

Can you do a view source and tell me what it says (as the results are xml and are not showing up in your browser).

Cheers,

Alex
