June 26, 20177 yr Author What's New in Version 5.1.0: Compatibility with IPS 4.2 - DO NOT USE IT ON IPS 4.1.X
July 7, 20177 yr @Adriano Faria Looks like webthumbnail.org is changing to Miniature.io. Things seem to be working ok, but wanted to let you know incase you missed it or need to switch something in the API.
July 10, 20177 yr Hi, link images seem to have disappeared on https://www.walkingfootball.com/links/ Any ideas?
July 10, 20177 yr Author It's the same for all times: the provider must be offline. You better enable the setting to store images locally. If you're already using it and the images disappeared, then i must say that the app doesn't delete images for its own.
July 10, 20177 yr Hi, we do have this setting switched on - Store thumbnails locally So this is really weird how they have disappeared then
July 10, 20177 yr Author I agree. I have links addes since Feb 10 and their images are still there: Rebuild your images via tool. If they gone, they gone.

July 10, 20177 yr what is working for you? I am getting blanks for web thumbnail and sneak.pw even after using the rebuild tool is there some time delay involved in images showing if you switch from provider to another?
July 10, 20177 yr Author If both aren't working, then probably they're offline, Unlocky! You didn't update the app, no one (I guess) deleted the image, so nothing has changes, EXCEPT the sites are offline or something in your server are blocking them now. I just made a quick test and mine shows blank too: It's a free service... wait; there's nothing I can do. You may want to sign up the Thumbshots service. It's paid but it should be better.
July 17, 20177 yr I just purchased and installed (and checked for updates) this application and this is the error on the front end I get when I enable it: Fatal error: Interface 'IPS\Content\MetaData' not found in ******/applications/links/sources/Link/Link.php on line 27 I get the same error if I try to uninstall it from the AdminCP wether the application is enabled or disabled.

If you notice the change log, the main version is for IPS 4.2. If you want to use it on 4.1, then scroll down the screen and find the SEE CHANGELOG button. Click on it and then download the version 5.0.7.2:
July 17, 20177 yr Ah, that was my issue. Thank you very much. And by the way, great support response time. Edited July 17, 20177 yr by Josiah Wallingford

August 30, 20177 yr Using IPS 4.2, when I go to upgrade it request a .tar file, but 5.1.0 downloads as a .zip Can I just run it or do I need to unzip, then tar it ?

September 4, 20177 yr Author I'll post tomorrow in the morning theHTML of this specific part then you compare with your custom theme.
September 5, 20177 yr I am waiting to update when 4.2 is a bit more stable, I am still using the latest 4.1.19.4
