I have been testing the PHPLinks plugin integration on my test GL system - virgin 1.3.11r3 install.
I noted problems with kses.class settings in lib-common.php and fixed those, since the issued version of the lib-common.php has out-of-date settings and finally managed to get the plugin to come up without error.
Trouble is, now categories will not add at all. In fact, it appears that the plugin just does not seem to allow entry of any new settings or configuration data from the admin panels in the phplinks admin area.
The weird part of all of this is that I get no error messages at all in my error log and the categories or changes I add apparently "take" without error when I submit them. In fact, categories report as "added" but then when I go look, no such entry has occurred. I use SQLYog for my MySQL table maintenance and no entries are making it into the tables there, so I know this has to be some sort of SQL posting problem, probably endemic to the replaced GL files that the plugin provides.
I've triple checked my config files just to be safe - I'm a long-time GL user and am used to the strange things that happen in GL sites, but this one has me stumped for now.
Anyone with advice to give would surely find appreciation from me as to what the cause of this problem might be.
Thanks!
