options > links urls truncated

[peterjones]

Under options > links - I'm getting urls entered there - but they are all getting truncated to around the 60-70 character mark.

This is the code I'm using:

Code: Select all

http://www.site.com/cgi-bin/te/o.cgi?l={$gallery_url}&u={$gallery_url}

Hi Peter,

link names are limited to 64 chars.

regards,
Jim

Can you add that as a feature request/script update, because a truncated url has little or no value. It would be like listing the url of this thread as:

Code: Select all

Hi Peter,

most people user short link names such as "gallery", "sponsor1" ,"sponsor2" and so on.
I can see you're feeding l= with URLs, therefor you would need them to be longer than that.

I wrote it down.

best regards,
Jim

OK, I follow you now about how this functionality is intended to be used - & am now using it that way
