MOD for REFERER length

[er16004]

I wanted to reduce (truncate) the length of the URL's listed in the REFERERS, so I found the code around line 375 in the orginal index.php in the root.

Look for this code:

// take down the length as urls can be quite long
$referername = $referer;

$length = strlen($referername);
if($length > 50) { $referername = substr($referername,0,50); $referername = "$referername..."; }
$referer_print .= "<li><a href='$referer'>$numb     $referername</a></li>";
}

And replace the line with the number 50 to whatever charcter limit you want, just make sure they match (there's two 50s there).

If this has already been discussed, sorry, I didn't see it.

I used a 35 character limit instead of the default 50..

I upgraded to 1.4.1 and needed to edit the index.php file again to cover the modification I wanted. FYI, the line you need to look for is:

if($length > 50) { $referername = substr($referername,0,50)

I'm using it on my referer page here: http://ericrasch.com/index.php?x=ref
