To whomever is responsible for the admin area of Links SQL development, I'd like to make a small request for the next release. Would it be possible to add the ability back in to manually edit the Status for any given link?
I'm not sure why this was removed, other than possibly to make the Modify form less cluttered, but it certainly is an inconvenience. When going through the status report and looking for problem links that need to be addressed, there are invariably quite a few that return an error code despite being perfectly accessible, or more commonly return a 302 that you already know of and don't care about. With the old system that allowed the Status code to be manually modified, you could set such links to 200 and not have them filling up the Status page to keep going over...
I imagine there's something that could be done with the admin templates to hack that ability back in, but I find the setup of those files very difficult to follow.
Thanks,
Dan
