When editing index information for a 'user submitted page' I cannot change the link to external site. The change is simply ignored when I save. This problem has existed a long time. It means that my variants aren't sufficiently explained. Can somebody fix this problem, please. /Mats

It seems to not be limited to the URL; category changes aren't registering on a test page.  I'm looking into it.

EDIT: I think I've fixed it. Fergus, could you look over the things I commented out from membersubmission2.php to make sure they aren't needed elsewhere?

I'm looking into this now but have to take a break. The lines you commented out were reading values from the database that should have already been entered by the form that called this page as a script. By reading values from the database, it was overwriting the submitted values with the already stored values. This may account for why many user submissions have been blank. The issue I'm working on now is making sure the previous script (membersubmission.php) includes all the relevant variables, so that empty values will not overwrite already stored values in the database.

I think I'm finished up with this now. I added a Type field to form on the membersubmission.php script, and I deleted the lines you commented out.
