Thanks for the clarification, McDonald. Subtle but definite difference!!

As I was thinking about it more, being able to turn on/off the ability to see other submitter's links based upon (the viewer's) user level would fit nicely into your current security scheme. I was going to attempt changing your templates/code to do just that, but you'll likely get around to it before I will (and you know what you're doing as well)!

Hi all.. Thanks for the quick replies. I found a solution, but it was a bit of a hack to the template.. would like to see if there's a better way.

I'm using 1.03b from McDonald's site, with XOOPS v 2.0.17.1.

The problem is (was!) that if an anonymous user views the link page, and then clicks on "View Full Details", they can then click the link to the poster, which then gives them a clickable link to any of the poster's entries regardless of their category view permissions.

What I did was edit the wflinks_singlelink.html template to delete the lines 87-94, which displays the list of other posts by submitter.

It would be nice if I had a solution where I didn't have to do that though.

WF-Links permissions bug?

I don't know if this is a problem with WF-Links, or something else but I have two WF-Links categories, one is viewable by anyone and the other only to registered users/admins, etc.

Using the block links everything works as expected, however when an anonymous user views the links page, he can also jump to all links by the submitter, which then shows links in categories he doesn't have permission to.

Is this a bug, or is there someplace where I can turn off a user's ability to see all links by a submitter?

Yeah- I'm an idiot. Seems that I copied all of the dirs to my server, but missed the root files

.. never mind, & sorry for the waste of forum space.

Ok, I can now answer this one myself.. No, As of mid-October 2007 1and1 still has the permissions problem.

Stupid (newb) 2.2.5 install question

OK, I'm new to Xoop and have a stupid question- Clearly simply unpacking the 2.2.5 release files as described will not allow auto-install as described everywhere because the install files remain in the install dir.

So, the question is- do I want to move the install dir files to the root, or browse to the install dir to setup?

Thanks.

Thanks for this info! I just opened an additional package with 1&1 when I discovered this new (to me) feature & not having used XOOPS before, I was going to give it a try. I think I still will try it, but I'll do a manual install.

Unless.. Does anyone know if this problem with 1&1 still exists as of October 2007?
