Bump. I am still having this problem. I am able to work around it manually, but I really would like to find links “to moderate” when I click on the notification that there have been new links submitted for my approval.
Hi Alisha,
Sorry for the lack of response. Have been very busy recently and trying to catch up. I just tested the moderation link from the menu bar and it works correctly on my live site and my test site. I did find a problem with deleting unwanted links in the moderation screen for which I just posted an update.
Please try upgrading and see if things are working better now. If not, I would probably need admin access on your site and database access to your mysql admin page to figure out what is happening on your install.

Hi Yannick,
Thanks so much for your reply. I have installed the most recent update, but unfortunately it did not have any impact on my issue. I will gladly give you admin access to the site and database access to our mysql admin page. Would you please email me privately at your earliest convenience so I can arrange for username/password for you?
I have this problem too. I have last version of Link Library on WordPress 3.2.1 platform.
I see that I have 1 link awaiting for moderation but if I clicked on the “View List of Links Awaiting Moderation” I found just “no links found to moderate.”
I can approve links only by “unhide” them in standard screen of WordPress for edit links.
Hi Alisha,
The issue has been resolved. There was a problem with the code that was supposed to display the list of categories to submit the new links under. Since the list was not displayed, the new links submitted ended up with no category.
You can now see on the site that the link category selection list is now being displayed.
Ciprian, was the category selection list showing up in your link submission form before? Check to see if things work better with this new update.

Yannick,
Thank you SO much for working this through for me! It is working great, and I submitted several test links to ensure it was working correctly – it works perfectly. I figured out how to override the “show all” for the category dropdown list – you thought of everything!
Thanks again!
Alisha
Hi Alisha,
Glad that this is working well for you and that you found the option to tailor the list of categories for the drop-down list.
You can remove the admin account that you created for me.
Hi again,
The whole story was that:
– first I try to add a link from frontend, without moderation and I saw that my link not appear to directory. I checked in backend and it was there – “unhide” them and I see on site.
– I thought – “the link not appear because I didn’t set a category for them” – then I see that categories was set to show up but they don’t appear… testing various configurations let me see the problem with empty categories (was the moment when I write the other post)
– because the links won’t appear from frontend, I think to let them “moderated”, so eventually subscribers will see that they links waiting for moderation and will be patients not worried because nothing happend. (Then I saw that moderations didn’t work neither and replied here)
Now the problem is solved, links appear on site with or without moderation, and moderation link work perfect.
Thank you kindly for your great work. In about a week I hope to finish romanian translation of Link Library for my site, if you need them I’ll be glad to contribute a little.
Best Regards,
Ciprian
I would love to add a romanian translation to Link Library. That being said, the translation file is not fully up-to-date, so you will not be able to translate 100% of the strings. I will try to create an up-to-date version of the po file soon.
