URL Method 2 does not seem to work

[Night Shaded]

If you go to my pligg installation at http://theanime.net/news/ , you can see that the links on that page are broken.

Hi
Night Shaded

You may need to look for a file called default.htaccess
Edit it for your domain
save and rename to just .htaccess

Hope that helps

Pligg wiki - Url Method

Um, would you mind telling me how exactly?

What the hell are you groaning at me for Night Shaded?

You ask a common question obviously without searching first because you would have found it just got asked a week ago and I point you towards the wiki where I've taken the time to summarize all the info that's been said in this forum about it and you groan?

Figure it out yourself then.

(2 posts + 2 groans = not a good ratio.)

I have already browsed the wiki and it came up with nothing.

Can anyone please help me?

Have you followed my intructions above?

Yes, but unfortunately, that does not resolve the issue. This is the content of my .htaccess file:

I am not entirely sure what you mean by broken links, however, this worked for me: Add...

If ($x == "outurl") {return my_pligg_base."/out.php?url=" . urlencode($var1);}

...to the URLMethod 2 section of libs/html1.php. Look for "$URLMethod == 3" and place it somewhere in the section (I put it under "outtitle"). You can also put this in the URLMethod 3 section if you want.

This change doesn't create a friendly url for the outbound link, however, this doesn't really matter in this case.
