Link Problems

Hi All,

Last week I upgraded to 1.4.0sr1 and searching around I
liked the  
Naked Bike theme so I installed that as well.

So far all is going well .. I think..  Except weird things
with links ..

	Problem #1

When I do a general search on my site using a query like
this:

	http://www.rocteur.cc/geeklog/public_html/search.php? 
query=bmw&type=all&mode=search

It returns me a list of links.. When I click on a link, it
loads up a  
url like this:

	http://www.rocteur.cc/geeklog/public_html/links/porta
l.php? 
what=link&item=20060311135636813

Which takes me to my link Category index.

If in the above link, I replace this:

	index.php?page=

With this:

	portal.php?what=link&item=

Giving this:

	http://www.rocteur.cc/geeklog/public_html/links/porta
l.php? 
what=link&item=20060311135636813

I get expected behaviour.

What have I forgotten to do ?????

	Problem #2

If I go to the link admin page:

	http://www.rocteur.cc/geeklog/public_html
/admin/plugins/links/index.php

Whatever I search for, I get:

	- No entries found -

HELP.......

Thanks in advance,

Jerry Rocteur

I assume you pasted the wrong link here. But, yeah, it
doesn't work.
It's linking to index.php, not portal.php. That's a bug,
obviously.

It only searches the URL, title, and category at the moment.
Which isn't
too useful.

In admin/plugins/links/index.php, find the line that reads

    'query_fields' => array('title', 'category',
'url'),

and change it to

    'query_fields' => array('title', 'category',
'url', 'description'),

Also, you'll have to pad your query strings with '*',
e.g. '*rocteur*'
to find anything. All the Admin search options work that
way. This
hasn't occured to me until now, but it's odd that they
should work
different than the normal search. We should probably change
that ...

bye, Dirk

Yes I did paste the wrong link, I'm sorry. But you got the
drift 

I just changed plugins/links/functions.inc line 424

From:
	'/links/index.php?page=' . $A['lid']);

To:
	'/portal.php?what=link&item=' . $A['lid']);

That fixed it.

Works GREAT thanks.

Inconsistency sucks doesn't it.

Cheers and thanks again,
