In the Admin Comtrol panel, when I click on "Edit Sites", the page is blank except for the "Select Categories" drop down menu. How do you see the sites for editing? Please don't tell me you have to go through every category to find the site!

Admittedly this is one of the things that really needs some work. I've recently added a search box to the menu, so a client could just enter terms, or a full URL and press enter

When entering a URL, if the site was listed, it would come up for editing. If it was NOT found, it would come up for adding, fetching the description from the site's meta tags.

I think I can strip out a couple things and make your life easier by simply uploading two files. ... Check back in a few hours.

Ok, taking just a bit from version 2.1 you can now add one of its features to 2.0 .. without upgrading. A search function from the admin panel.

Adding this feature involves adding a block of HTML to your existing /admin/menu.php and uploading one new file to your admin directory. More specific instructions are in the download, which is here ...

dnpladminsearch1.0.zip.

OK....uploaded the file and inserted the code and I know have a search box. When I enter a word and hit enter I get:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: stripos() in /home/besto18/public_html/bestlinks/admin/site_search.php on line 61

DOH! I keep forgetting stripos came about with PHP5 ..

So, edit your new search_site.php file
locate around line 37
<?php echo $adm_body;

.. and add this.. so it looks like this ...

Code:

<?php echo $adm_body; if (!function_exists('stripos')){ function stripos($string,$word) { $retval = false; for($i=0;$i<=strlen($string);$i++) { if (strtolower(substr($string,$i,strlen($word))) == strtolower($word)) { $retval = true; } } return $retval; } }

I'll update the download as well

OK...I think I did it right, but now I get this:

Invalid query: Unknown column 'phplinks_links.track' in 'field list'
