OK when adding a link, and clicking to 'Get META Description' i recieve the meta data, but also get this warning, twice.
Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in /home/mysite/public_html/filefunctions.php on line 234
I have checked and I am not running in safe mode. Can anyone tell me what I need to change to clear this warning.
I don't support 3.3.4 since it's a major security risk patched more than a year ago and there've been 51 subsequent versions released which you could use if you don't like having the hundreds of known bugs which they fixed.
I have solved the problem, and it had nothing to do with the software. the problem was to do with a cpanel setting that had reset when I had to do a restore backup on my server. I had to simply disable the open_basedir protection on this site.
DusX, you really need to update WSN Links, your placing yourself at risk to get hacked. It's also irresponsible on your part because if you are on a shared server, all those other sites can get hacked through a security problem on your account. Stay up-to-date, it's free!
Security Update If running a version prior to 3.3.21, please upgrade. An important security issue was fixed.
it will be done. I have recently purchased 4.0 ... its just going to take some time for me to make the transition.. this is not my promary site/business by any means.. my server is my own.. so I am the only one at risk at least.
