broken links

  • I have not been able to find this problem on the Forum, so if the answer exists, I would appreciate someone pointing me to the right place.

    I get this error where the links should be displayed:

    WordPress database error: [Unknown column ‘link_manual’ in ‘order clause’]
    SELECT link_url, link_name, link_image, link_target, link_description, link_rating, link_rel , IF (DATE_ADD(link_updated, INTERVAL 120 MINUTE) >= NOW(), 1,0) as recently_updated FROM wp_links WHERE link_visible = ‘Y’ AND link_category = 2 ORDER BY link_manual ASC

    Apart from adding various plugins, I have not done anything to the database.

  • It must be a plugin, because there isn’t a field named “link_manual” in the links table.

    Try deactivating the plugins one by one until the problem goes away.

    i had the same problem after installing the “my link order” plugin, deactivating it didnt help. in my case, the problem was the configuration of the link categories: they are, by default, set to be manually ordered (and not by name) after the plugin is active.

    what i did was accessing links > link categories and selecting “name” at the “order by” section. that way, the links will be alphabetically and not manually ordered and the error will disappear. see if that works for you too.

    in case that is your problem but youd still like to order the links manually (and not alphabetically), id suggest you recheck the readme file at the “my link order” plugin or contacting the developer, because you might need to configure the plugin a bit further.

    hope it helps.

    what is the field that u created as “link_manuel”, it’s not a standart comin wit an offical wordpress 2.0.3 package?

    I have to agree with #2 that a plugin is hurting. maybe you should try deleting the colomn from databse after uninstalling the active plugin.
