Check_Link_Exists
When I try to add a duplicate link through admin I get this error



CHECK_LINK_EXISTS

Is this something in LinksSQL itself or a plugin? I had Duplicate_Check plugin installed for awhile but then uninstalled it.

How can I override this in admin?

Thnaks,

Craven

Doesn't look like it uninstalled correctly. Is there a file called /admin/Plugins/Duplicate_Check.pm ? If so, that means it hasn't been uninstalled correctly. If its not there, then I would like to know where that message is coming from, as the Perl routine that should produce it, wouldn't exist Unsure

If you can send over FTP details, I'll take a look for you (email addy in my signature, or PM will be fine).

Hi Andy,

I've still not been able to fix this. I've reinastlled the plugin and the uninstalled. I removed all files associated with it even at admin/plugins/uninstalled. Is there something that would be in MySQL? Any ideas on what to try?

Thanks

If you send over LinkSQL admin panel details, I'll take a quick look for you. Its one of those things that are quite hard to debug/work out, unless you have physical access to it.

Ok, I finally figured out what was happening.

I also had Recip_link plugin installed which also checks for duplicate links.

I removed it and everything was fine!

Anyway to disable this feature in Recip_Link plugin?

Thanks

Sure thing. You just need to edit /admin/Plugins/Recip_Link.pm, on around line 513. Just comment out the following part;

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
