If you're aware of any pages where XSS is still possible please let me know and I can secure them.</p> <p>While XSS is a minor issue which is more aimed towards phishing and only really applicable on larger websites, it's easy to fix and I'm happy to do it.</p> <p>Cheers </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/285581#post-1183017 Fri, 21 Aug 2009 12:08:34 +0000 Seans0n 1183017@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>The WordPress forums have taken out my code but you would add style="font-weight:bold;" to the '&lt;a href' part.</p> <p>1. How do I set the number of links per page?<br /> Currently you can't. However I aim to add this feature to the next version release.</p> <p>2. How do I SEO the directory? I can see that the directory title and description are not showing on metatags. Is it possible to add meta keywords in category pages?<br /> Currently no. There are issues with the SEO Permalinks too which are more important. Custom meta tags are not currently a priority.</p> <p>I hope this answers your questions, cheers. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/285581#post-1183011 Fri, 21 Aug 2009 12:01:28 +0000 Seans0n 1183011@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I still maintain my plugins but typically don't spend much time developing them any more and there are several issues with WPLD since it hasn't been updated for WP 2.8.4 yet.</p> <p>However, to answer your questions-</p> <p><em>I am using a wp link directory and my question is, Can we make links bold?

He's got a really goodlooking site - not the sort to just not bother when he must have put a lot of work into it up till now.

I even run the latest version WordPress 2.7 and now 2.8.</p> <p>However, since I have a Mcafee secure site, I can never get the Wordpress Link Directory to pass. Please Keep in mind I run several plug in that passed the test.</p> <p>I think the developer should have taken the extra step with this script instead of just thinking about getting rank of the search engine because of links being directed to your website. However, that another story.</p> <p>The WordPress Link Directory needs some work on the security issues since it is cross-site scripting.</p> <p>This is something that the developer can do to fix this issue..</p> <p>******************************<br /> The Wordpress Link Directory remote web application appears to be vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS).</p> <p>The cross-site scripting attack is one of the most common, yet overlooked, security problems facing web developers today. A web site is vulnerable if it displays user-submitted content without sanitizing user input.</p> <p>The target of cross-site scripting attacks is not the server itself, but the users of the server. By finding a page that does not properly sanitize user input the attacker submits client-side code to the server that will then be rendered by the client. It is important to note that websites that use SSL are just as vulnerable as websites that do not encrypt browser sessions.</p> <p>The damage caused by such an attack can range from stealing session and cookie data from your customers to loading a virus payload onto their computer via browser.</p> <p>The pages listed in the vulnerability output will display embedded javascript with no filtering back to the user.</p> <p>When accepting user input ensure that you are HTML encoding potentially malicious characters if you ever display the data back to the client.</p> <p>Ensure that parameters and user input are sanitized by doing the following:<br /> # Remove &lt; input and replace with &lt;<br /> # Remove &gt; input and replace with &gt;<br /> # Remove ' input and replace with &apos;<br /> # Remove " input and replace with &#x22;<br /> # Remove ) input and replace with &#x29;<br /> # Remove ( input and replace with &#x28; </p> <p>*******************************************</p> <p>So for the user today just keep in mind beware what can happen to your users. </p> <p>That's all it in a nut shell hopefully the developer care enough to take the extra steps. It's a great script..</p> <p>For the people that is looking for a clean directory plug in I suggest the " <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/odlinks/">Open Links Directory</a> " It's clean and it pass the McAfee Secure test.</p> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-link-directory/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-link-directory/</a> </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/243908#post-1092846 Fri, 05 Jun 2009 16:31:39 +0000 atsakala 1092846@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>i am having problems with "cleanse" function.

The short and skinny of it though, is to simply take your desired language file from /lang/ and drop it into the main directory. If WordPress is already set up correctly it should work instantly. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/251746#post-1012072 Wed, 11 Mar 2009 12:12:29 +0000 RonKlaren 1012072@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hmm... just deleted the tables and reinstalled the plugin, adding links works now!</p> <p>Still no translation though.. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/251746#post-1011974 Wed, 11 Mar 2009 09:19:07 +0000 RonKlaren 1011974@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hello all!</p> <p>Wordpress link directory looks very promissing but I have 2 major isues.</p> <p>First and most important, if I add a link (admin or frontpage) it sais the link was added, but nothing is. </p> <p>Second, plugin won't display any other language then english/</p> <p>please help </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/212945#post-992001 Fri, 20 Feb 2009 01:43:40 +0000 WordpressChina 992001@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Ok my problem was solved when I found that there was an error in my own theme, but not in the plugin. Now the plugin works. :)</p> <p>However, like powerkor says, it still does not work with permalinks :( </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/212945#post-989288 Tue, 17 Feb 2009 20:51:52 +0000 powerkor 989288@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I refuse to use this addon until its updated. Not using perma links is not an option </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/212945#post-988458 Tue, 17 Feb 2009 02:50:36 +0000 WordpressChina 988458@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Ok I managed to get it to work after deleting my database and starting new :) My problem was I first installed the PRO version, but that did not work so I uninstalled it and re-installed the non-Pro version but some database things still remained. After I deleted those, the plugin loaded fine.</p> <p>However, pretty permalinks do not work. I have tried all sorts of combination, but it doesn't work on 2.7. It always redirects to the home page (not even an Error 404).</p> <p>The directions for the plugin say %postname% will not work, so I am trying /archives/%post_id% instead, but that also does not work. If I add the shortcode [wplinkdir] to a page called "mylinks", I can see the front page of the directory, but then when I click on any links, they don;t return anything. The problem seems to be something small somewhere but I can not figure it out! :( </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/212945#post-987411 Mon, 16 Feb 2009 03:50:14 +0000 WordpressChina 987411@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>WP 2.7 doesn't seem to work with this :(</p> <p>It seems to not save any new links and it doesn't import the links I already have via the "Functions" section in the admin area. Anyone else know if this is the case or some way to make it work? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/243908#post-987317 Mon, 16 Feb 2009 00:53:24 +0000 solaryn 987317@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hey man,</p> <p>I was having issues too, i got it working now. If you delete whatever you have in the "permalinks" field under wordpress-link-directory, it will work. It just gives ugly permalinks, but works fine. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/242809#post-987315 Mon, 16 Feb 2009 00:51:38 +0000 solaryn 987315@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I must have missed this part in the installation instructions:</p> <p>Add this [wplinkdir] to the page you want to be your directory homepage.</p> <p>Problem resolved. </p>
