Reciprocal Link feature not working

[tyankee]

i have had my directory for over 5 years now and never required reciprocal links until i tried to change that yesterday by going to the admin section and setting it to require reciprocal links.. but it doesn't work.. i am still able to add a link without specifying a reciprocal link.. try it at Find a Web Designer Directory for Website Design. 123FindaWebDesigner.com

I'm not sure if this is the solution, but did you 'Update Category Paths' after enabling reciprocal links?

just tried that and still doesn't work...

[tyankee]

still waiting for an answer on this one.. the reciprocal url check is marked as 'yes' but users still can add their links WITHOUT entering a reciprocal URL.. the site is Find a Web Designer Directory for Website Design. 123FindaWebDesigner.com.. are there writers of this software on this forum??

[tyankee]

is anyone here?? is there somewhere i can submit a ticket?? i paid good money for this software and this feature is NOT working.. please help..

You can try to submit a ticket to support (at) nicecoder.com, but it would seem they are rather slow in answering them.

tried that 2 days ago but no answer yet.. you think for the price of this software, support would be much better.

Agreed!

ok, now i'm willing to pay someone to fix this since i can't get support from the software people. please send me bids on what it would cost to fix this.. or maybe a bid on what it would cost to move to a better directory structure..

Your probably better off going over to ScriptLance.com or eLance.com and post a job for it. You'll find many PHP and MySQL programmers that will bid for the job. I'm not sure if your going to get too much attention with this here.

Hi, actually this feature has been removed in the previous release for some reason. It seems we will re-add this feature in the next release.

Here's the quick fix
open add.php

find

     elseif (!empty($add_cat1) && !empty($add_cat2) && $add_cat1 == $add_cat2)
      $error_msg = $msg['10118']; 
  

then add this line

     elseif (IsReciprocalRequired(__FILE__)) {
      if (!IsValidReciprocalURL($url, $reciprocal_url)) {
        $error_msg = $msg['10119'];
      }
    } 
  

Hope this will work

WOW!!!! that worked great... i never thought i'd get an answer.. n ow if i could only get an answer as to why the 'fetch meta' is not working when you try to add a link.. i'ver read all the threads relating to this but nothing works.. the 'update meta' works fine from the admin section...
