    Hmm… it seems that part of the spam validation code I added makes a reference to Contact Form 7. Since you do not have that plugin installed, it is throwing an error.

    A quick fix until I have time to fully resolve the issue later this week would be to install and activate Contact Form 7, even if not used.

    Alternatively, edit usersubmission.php in the link-library plugin folder and delete lines 574 to 576.

    Thanks! I already activated Contact Form 7, somehow I didn’t realize that it is needed.

    Now the PHP error disappears, but I get a “Link submission error” in the form.

    I deleted the lines, as you wrote, but the “Link submission error” remains. I also turned on “Debug Mode”, just the same message.

    Sorry about these problems. I should be able to investigate in next few days and let you know what I find.

    One thing to try quickly would be to uncheck the box called ‘Validate links with Akismet’ in the User Submission tab and see if it works then.

    No problem!

    Yes, disabling Akismet validation solved the problem! (Additionally to commenting out the lines as suggested above.)

    Thank you for your fast help!

    I just release a new version to fully fix this without needing to disable link validation through Akismet. Please update and validate that link submission works correctly on your site.
