Static Links in Links SQL 2.1.2

I'm trying to find a way to change the way out going links work. Instead of using jump.cgi?ID=# I'd like to have direct links to each site. I've searched the forums and haven't been able to find anything on it.

Hi. Its as easy as editing link.html, so that;

Code:
<%db_cgi_url%>/jump.cgi?ID=<%ID%>

...looks like;

Code:
<%URL%>

Cheers

I think it would be something like:
<%if URL%>
<a href="<%URL%>"><%URL%></a>
<%endif%>
in your links.html template.

Thanks allot Andy. I'll give it a try.

Just ran across another problem though, the server isn't letting me upload any files to it. So I must fix this before I can proceed. Frown

That's how it goes though. Anywho, thanks allot.

No prob.

Just a quick fix: Try CHMODing all the files in /admin/templates/default and /admin/templates/default/local and /admin/templates/default/compiled to 666, and make sure all the directories are CHMOD 777.

That can sometimes fix the simpler problems with permissions :)

Don't believe it's a permission problem. The server is saying the disk is full. Which shouldn't be the case either. So I'm having the system administrator look into it. More then likely a script or program is using to many resources and causing an overflow of data on the server. I don't know to much about servers, but from a logical stand point. That's my guess.
