I have now several big problem with links for the script at http://www.multimeta.com/Catalogue2/pages

1. One of the submitters has written us:

Joerg,
After checking for a link for http://www.swimmercollection.com, I did not find
anything under business/companies/art/indian_art. Another company was there,
and it appeared that they were not engaged in the business of indian art.
Just trying to be helpful. Thank you,
Ryan Rex

Entries disappear and others are wrong, i.e. if the visitors clicks on the link, it goes somewhere else, to another entry, but not to their entry. Other entries disappear. I do not know what I can do. I have already lost some entries, I do not know, why.

2. Another submitter has written us:

We submitted our site to you for listing. It's listed but it when you
click on our name it doesn't go to our site. It goes somewhere else.
Can this be corrected? The site is www.topm.com. Top Meadow. Thank
you.

3. I have another problem. I have defined header and footer for all categories - but nowhere in the catalog can I see my headers or footers. This is very important for us for advertisers.

The catalog is still at http://www.multimeta.com/Catalogue2/pages/. Very strange, with the old version 1.1. everything, including footers and headers. What can I do in order that the headers and footers can be shown in the catalogue?

Thank you very much for your help!

The first two problems sound like your database is corrupted. If this is Links v2 and you upgraded from Links v1, did you run the script, upgrade.pl and then copy the links2.db that the script creates to links.db?

In reference to the second problem. Are you headers and footers included in the categories.db itself or in files in the header/footer directories? If the latter, are the directories name header and footer? The docs say to use headers and footers (note the "s" on the end), but the script looks for just "header" and "footer".

Regardless of how you store the headers/footers, they are displayed using the variables $header and $footer or, if using templates in v2, <%header%> or <%footer%> where you want them to appear.
