Error when importing links

    I am trying to copy my Link Library to another site. I exported/imported the Library Settings. When I try to import my Link Library CVS from one site to another I get only 4 links and this error:

    Warning: fopen(): Filename cannot be empty in /home/toniengl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/link-library/link-library-admin.php on line 1303

    Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/toniengl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/link-library/link-library-admin.php:1303) in /home/toniengl/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 1196

    I am not code literate so that error means nothing to me as far as troubleshooting. I looked at the file. All of the links are present in the file. They won’t import.

    I have used this plugin without problems for years. It is one of the first ones I always install. Love it!

    Thank you

    Sorry that the error is not significant. It most likely indicates a problem with PHP configuration relative to upload on your server.

    You should install one of the phpInfo plugins on your wordpress site (I always recommend https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wordpress-php-info/), then look at the plugin’s output under the Settings section of your site.

    More specifically, look for:

    – file_uploads On
    – upload_max_filesize 2M

    If File Uploads is off or upload_max_filesize smaller that the file you are trying to upload, that would cause problems on the site.

    Glad you regularly use Link Library. Please consider donating to support its development if you have never done so already.

    Thank you for the quick response! I will install the plugin and see what I can figure out. I will update you then.

    Oh, I have a MultiSite network. Both sites are in the same network. Does that matter? I will install the plugin and activate it per site.

    I like to support developers. I do not remember if I have donated, but I will anyway – it can’t hurt. 🙂 (update – $done)

    UPDATE: upload_max_filesize 10M
    the CVS file is 207k

    I didn’t mention that I haven’t resolved the import issue. I just got the upload info. Any more input would be great.

    I can just copy/paste the links into a page in the mean time.

    Thanks

    What about the file_upload option, you did not confirm that it is on.

    I missed your update info as the site does not send out update e-mails when you do updates. It only sends out e-mails when you first post a reply.

    No worries.
    I am looking right now for the file_upload option. I thought it was on. 4 links did import. Hang on…

    Yes:

    file_uploads On

    Could you send me the file you are trying to import using my contact form at ylefebvre.ca/contact-me?

    Did you manage to import all of your links?

    Oh sorry!!!!. I have multiple issues going on with my WP sites.

    I will send you the file with my links today.

    Thank you very much!

    No go, I exported again but could not import. So I went to your site:

    I can’t see the Captcha to submit the form on your site. I use Chrome and Firefox – I don’t have ad blocking. On Chrome there is a broken image icon, it is blank in FireFox.

    Seems I had a plugin out of date. Can you try the submission form again now?
