Hi All,

I was wondering, If i install the password MOD for Links V2 that allows users to view and modify selected links information. Will all the passwords etc. be imported into the SQL version, or is the information stored differently in SQL?

I need this feature asap, but will have to wait if its going to cause conflicts with the new SQL.

Why don't you take a look at widgetz's modify.cgi that is linked in the forum?

All you have to do is copy the Username (Contact_Name) and Password fields into the Users table using INSERT during the import process. You would have to tweak the Import.pl similar to how Loopy tweaked it to move the Altcategories into the Category_Alternates table during the Import process.

Then you would have to delete the Password field in the Links table.

OR you could wait another six days and take a look at the next version of LINKS SQL, which is supposed to include more robust user features.
