Recip_Link

Hello,

First of all, Andy, I wanted to let you know that earlier tried to purchase Recip_Link script, however the domain is not working propertly:
http://new.linkssql.net/sell/send.php?id=7
and even
http://new.linkssql.net/
is not helpful.

Now, I also have a question to ask about the script.
Let's say my link database includes two frields:
URL which is the URL to be listed in the directory
and RecipURL which is the URL where the reciprocal link should be at.
Is the Recip_Link script able to check the reciprocal link in the RecipURL feild and
leave the URL feild alone?

If so, it must be great value for my site and the minute you can start selling that script
I will buy it.

Thanks for your time,
And looking forward to have the script.

George

Hi,

My appologies - thats my old site =) I should really get the purchase URL's updated.

The correct link is:

http://www.ultranerds.com/...gins/Recip_Link_L18/

Yes, you can either use the default "URL" field - or specify a new field, for example RecipURL or Recip_URL - basically, whatever you wish Smile

Hope that answers your questions.

Cheers

Thanks Andy,

By the way, it reminds me I have another question:
Is it possible to check for duplicate Recip_URL like it's possible to check duplicate URL
The reason I'm asking is because I have intention to check that the few sites don't share a single Recip_URL

Thanks again,
George.

Hi,

Sure thing. You would just add the following (in /admin/Plugins/Recip_Link.pm);

Code:
  # Check that the URL isn't already in the Links database 
    my $db_con  = $DB->table("Links"); 
    my $url = $IN->param($recip_field); 
    my $chk_dup = $db_con->count ( { $recip_field => $url } ); 
  	if ($chk_dup) { 
      print Links::SiteHTML::display('error', {error => "A record with the URL \"$url\" already seems to exist in the $recip_field field..."}); 
      exit; 
    }

..right after:

Code:
  # Check that the URL isn't already in the Links database 
    my $db_con  = $DB->table("Links"); 
    my $url = $IN->param('URL'); 
    my $chk_dup = $db_con->count ( { URL => $url } ); 
  	if ($chk_dup) { 
      print Links::SiteHTML::display('error', {error => "A record with the URL \"$url\" already seems to exist..."}); 
      exit; 
    }

Hope that helps =)

Cheers
