I've made a new Link Checker that works on all sites and won't slow your site down. It creates a new pop-up window displaying the links that you can fully customize to match your skin. If any links are dead LinkzBot.com records the page and info for the staff to view allowing them to remove or re-upload the links keeping your members happy. Currently it supports 38 file hosts but more can be added if requested.

For Webmaster Admin Demo visit http://linkzbot.com

IPB3, vBulliten, Wordpress, IPB, PHPBB 3 and WCDDL, SMF & MyBB all released. ​

Ya unfourtionatley that's the part that make you pull your hair out. No Link Checker that bin's links will ever be 100% perfect. Dman, Luke and nihalz all released good vb link checkers but sometimes, as all the owners will admit, have problems and bin alive topics. Link Checkers have to be updated almost every 2 weeks as something changes with some host, a new mod which conflicts with the link checker is released etc. People would go mad if they had to update every 2 weeks and claim the link checker is crap. Their are lots of other reasons like not slowing your server, it works for people without cURL enabled, etc but mainly it's to keep it simple so it gives less errors.
 
ok I had this working on IPB 3 the problem is just out of the blue it makes my header and some other stuff disappear in topic view

STEP 1
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit the following template -> All Global HTML -> global_board_header

Find:
-----------------------------
<!-- / End board header -->
-----------------------------

Add above:
-----------------------------
<!-- start of LinkzBot.com Javascript -->
<script type="text/javascript">
function linkbot(url)
{
var width = 650;
var height = 250;
var left = (screen.width - width)/2;
var top = (screen.height - height)/2;
var params = 'width='+width+', height='+height;
params += ', top='+top+', left='+left;
params += ', scrollbars=1';
newwin=window.open(url,'linkbot', params);
if (window.focus) {newwin.focus()}
return false;
}
</script>
<!-- end of LinkzBot.com Javascript -->
-----------------------------


STEP 2
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In your ACP edit the following:
Look and Feel -> Edit Template -> Topic View -> topicViewTemplate

Where you want to add it is up to you. I add it just before the signiture.

-----------------------------
<A HREF="javascript:void(0)"
onclick="window.open('http://linkzbot.com/check.php?id=http://$_SERVER[SERVER_NAME]$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]',
'welcome','width=600,height=250')"><b>Check Download Links</b></div>

where do I add the first code bit so it may resolve it? I only used the second bit and it was fine for a while then out of the blue it messed up.
 
Your site's only loads for me sometimes. You have an error message

Code: 
Fatal error: Class 'skin_global_24' not found in /home/pirates1/public_html/p-tacp/sources/classes/output/publicOutput.php(2797) : eval()'d code on line 14

But this has error has nothing to do with LinkzBot and you don't even seam to have LinkzBot installed on the pages I'm getting the error. Are you trying to install another mod. Anyway I've PM'ed you my MSN. Get me their and I'll help you fix whatever is causing the problem.
 
Ya it has been down. Might need to clear cookies as I got rid of some skins. The skin you had may not be there.
 
Hey,

I added this to my site - and signed up to linkzbot.com/webmasters.php but can't view my dead links :P

Fixed minor regex error for all sites which have a dash '-' in their name. ie: download-warez and pirate-this. Checked and it's working for both your site's now. Any other issues or problems let me know.

EDIT: Fatal your site must be small, fairly new or your an excellent admin as their only 3 pages with dead links on your site. Scotty you've about 30.

sure, but if i was presented with an idea to keep it regualrly updated and i had to pay for this i would.... just saying there is enough interest out there to code as a premium service for those that want a good all round updated bot

There's more to it, if you keep on hammering their server, they will ban your IP, reporting all your links as dead. *sigh*.

surely you can re-route that through a vpn of some sort? anyway a premium paid for service for keeping it updated and also haveing the admin backend and auto delete dead links would be good and i would gladly help/contribute to this project
 
Dude, epic fail? It's not picking up - MOST of my links are dead, considering yesterday I imported a 2 month old database
 
No, it merely alerts you 2 the fact that the links are dead.

Anyhow - any recommendations/suggestions on why it's not working correctly?

Will this automatically dump the threads?

No, it only tell's you which one's are dead so you have to choice to trash them or re-upload them.

Check the hotfile link on this page. Epic Fail on your part my friend.

http://download-warez.co.uk/?p=169

What the hell are you doing posting that link? It's the same for most of the posts on your site. No wonder it's not picking them up on your site and it doesn't just scan your whole site straight away. It takes time but you've a lot more pages now recoreded with dead links.
 
It shows netload links as dead even doe they are alive...and gets messy :(
