Category Mass Edit

This is a standalone script to edit multiple links at once.

The reason this script came about is that with a recent import I did from a scraping of a search engine I placed all the links into an “unsorted”

category. This of course gave me links with a single keyword in a single category, but they needed to be organized easily and quickly.

This script is designed to be run in the /admin/ directory and force you to login. You will then be presented with a list of categories and a choice

for number of links per page. Choosing a category and a number will take you to a pgae where you will see links from that category and the

option to change the category that those links are in. There is a link to edit the listing which will open a new window, and a link to visit the listing

which will open in a new window. Designed to keep you on a single page for maximum usability and fast editing.

The files are Ioncube encoded. If your server supports Ioncube extensions already then there is nothing you need to do to run this file. Otherwise

you may need to add the appropriate loader.

If you have any issues you can visit http://www.indexusupport.com/ or the Nicecoder forum for support.

Installation

To install simply upload the files in the admin folder IN BINARY MODE to the admin directory of your IndexU installation.

To run

Open http://www.yoursite.com/admin/massedit.php and edit the links as necessary.

Here’s one that you should never forget!

One tip that you should never forget to do is to password protect your admin directory.

Why you ask? Well for myself I have a number of custom scripts in the admin panel and I would hate to see those run by users that shouldn’t run them. In some cases they could damage the entire site by using them.

If you have access to a control panel for your domain then you should see something like “password protect a directory”. Simply choose to password protect the /admin/ dir and all is well.

IndexU and Windows hosting

It seems lately that I’ve heard from a lot of users on Windows (IIS) hosting. They all seem to have issues with 500 errors.

The cause of this issue is quite simple really

Update All Links Standalone Script

This is a standalone script to update all links on a site.

The reason this script came about is that with very large directories the script included with IndexU can timeout.

This script is designed so it will not timeout, and since it is an external script it can be run easily by cron to update your link counts daily, weekly

or whenever you want.

The file is Ioncube encoded. If your server supports Ioncube extensions already then there is nothing you need to do to run this file. Otherwise

you may need to add the appropriate loader into the ioncube folder provided.

This file is written so that it will be placed in the admin folder, and not in your IndexU root folder.

If you have any issues you can visit http://www.indexusupport.com/ or the Nicecoder forum for support.

Installation

To install simply upload the file in the admin folder IN BINARY MODE to the admin directory of your IndexU installation.

To run

Open http://www.yoursite.com/admin/update-all-links.php and let the file run until it is complete. It will show you progress reports until it is

complete. An example is shown below

Updating link numbers 8.06% 16.13% 24.19% 32.26% 40.32% 48.39% 56.45% 64.52% 72.58% 80.65% 88.71% 96.77% completed.

Five free category structures

Today I released five free category structures.

The following category structures are in tab delimited format and can be easily imported into IndexU via the Admin panel. These are only categories and they are each described below. These contain no links.

Canadian Provinces lists all the Canadian provinces (13 in total)

ISO List is a listing of every country in the ISO list. Please note that some users may be offended at how some of these countries are listed (ie Taiwan, Province of China). Note that this is NOT my choosing, but rather how an international body lists the countries and that has not changed. Feel free to edit this yourself if you use this file. (239 in total)

USPS States List is a listing of all US states, territories and base listings as provided by the US Postal Service(65 in total)

These next two category structures are provided as database dumps so importing is done easily through phpmyadmin. The first has 700 categories and the second one has 3533 categories. There are no links.

They Try them both out, see which one will work better for you. I don’t know which one is better, I’ve never used them myself.
