Recip links modification	Can't Post

How easy would it be to achieve the following?

I have attached a word document with a flow diagram of how i would like recip links to work - I am new to linkssql, and i've tried to modify it but am recieving nothing but errors...

Thanks,
Chris G.

No problem =)

I'm not quite sure it works as you are asking.

1) User submits the site.
2) Depending on what you have setup in the plugin settings, it will either REQUIRE them to have a recip link, or "isn't fussy" if theyhave a recip link or not.
3) If recip is required, and its not present on their site, then an error message will be shown, asking them to put a recip link up.

Thats it. Then it all just runs through the normal LSQL system :)

In regards to checking URL's in the database already; there are a few options. You can use "Staggered", "Background" or "Per Page", which will all run the checks for you in the browser.

If you want to run it via SSH/Telnet, then all you need to do, is type;

Code

nohup perl /full/path/to/admin/check.cgi > log.txt & 
tail -n20 -f log.txt

Hope that helps.

No, the Recip_link checker doesn't work how I want it too. I've been trying to do it myself, but it's taking a long time to learn the linkssql structure, aswell as learning Perl.

Do you do custom mods for customers at all?

If so, how much do you reckon it would be for a modification to the spec i suggested?

You should be able to get it to work almost as you want (set it so that a recip link ISN'T required, so that all submissions get through). Then, it would just be a case of editing Recip_Link.pm, so that it gives you the feature to check a specified link only (i.e not have to check them all). The first patr is already part of the plugin; but the extra "check" function isn't currently built in.

Yeah.. I'm not sure how easily we can fit you in though :/ (its mad at the moment... I barely seem to have 5 mins to myself).

I'll try and get this added into the release version, as it would be quite a cool feature (and something else other people can use too).

I'll reply to this post once I have something =)
