Bugs » Bug allows people add site without put backlink in their site

added on Apr 4, 2007 by KhoPhanMem
People can check one of the Reciprocal link URLs in the site and paste it in the field when they want to add another
link. It works when the Reciprocal link URL & Site URL are different.
Can you add a function that check the 2 URLs. Only allow add link when the 2 links are the same.

Thanks

Nice find. I didn't think of that.

I'll put in some function to either make the to urls be on the same domain, or to check if a link is already present
from the site they submit from.

Thanks again

I was just looking through the code, and found that I actually do check for the same links.
If you have the admin setting "Unique domains" LinkEX will compare the domain of the submitted URLs with each
and every of the links, to see if there exists a link with the same domain, if not checked LinkEX will still do the
compare, but look at the entire URL to see if it already exists.

Can you please verify that someone actually bypassed this?

I will, however, make a setting that will force the two submitted URLs to be on the same domain.

Just released a new version with a new setting called "Same domain". With this one checked, the two submitted
URLs must be on the same domain.

By the way, could you tell me what editor you use to edit source code pls, I get many problems when i open the code with
Notepad or Wordpad. Only 1 line and I can't see the code clearly.

Thanks for the kind words.

I use vim (vim.org) on my server. It's a kind of geeky text editor, you need to know the keyboard shortcuts.

The released files are "compiled" into 1 line in 1 file, so it's not your editor. On my development server I
have split the script into several files, with classes in separate files etc etc.
When I'm releasing it, I run a Make script that will parse the index.php and look for every "include" or
"require" tag, and replace that tag with the actual file.
When that is done, the script is stripped for every unnecessary whitespace.
Now I have a single file "compressed" as much as it's possible, making it easier to upgrade it directly from
the admin of LinkEX.

If you need to make any changes, you can find several editors/tools that will format the code nicely, but the changes
will be overwritten the next time you hit that upgrade button.

If you have any cool ideas or features you need, just let me know and I'll implement them and release the script.

Hope that answered your question :)

Take care

I think your code should have this function,
When SO puts link to your site to exchange traffic, why do you list those sites according to the hits from those sites.
The more hits, the higher rank they get. That's called the exchange rate. HIT IN & HIT OUT, it'll make the equality
for webmasters.

Hi.

This has been suggested before;
http://linkex.dk/forums/t388-sorting-by-hits-in.html

This is one feature that will never be in LinkEX. The amount of data that the script should be able to handle without
crashing is quite huge. If you need this, I suggest you use either a trade script (like UCJ or arrow trader), or some
top list script (There are plenty of those around).

If I should put this function into LinkEX the script will no longer be simple and easy to maintain, which is the goal
with this script.
