To restore the old “feature” and “bug” you can edit cc_redirect.php line 41 and change:
wp_safe_redirect function with wp_redirect

But at your own risk!

Yes, thank you Marco. I appreciate the work on this plug-in, and thank you for being responsive on this page.

Now that I understand I will do my best on my side to make it work. Thank you.

Ok that explains then the problem that the links arent working. Looking forward for the white list feature !! That would be great. Thanks for your great work Marco !

Only thing I can do is to create a ‘white list’ where user can add their own external links, the only ones that work.

But to fix the problem I had first to eliminate the possibility at all.

Ah-hah. I see. If I offered a local redirect would that open up the security hole again; or does it not apply to my situation?

eg: if I created my own short URL on swtuts.com, and used that to link to external links.

Yes external links do not work any-more due to a fixed security issue they filed against my plug-in:

The counter adds +1. All links to external sites do not work. links to files on my site work.

Marco,

I am having this same problem.

http://www.swtuts.com/?p=1

See my link for “Video of the Presentation at SolidWorks World 2011: ” near the end.

I am running 1.0.0, however I have an error saying “v0.9.6 (installed is v1.0.0)
VERSIONS MISMATCH! This because you haven’t de-activated and re-activated the plug-in after the update! This could give problems…” Even after following the instructions. Any instructions on how to force an upgrade to the database on the back side?

I am using WordPress 3.2.1.

Thanks for any help. I will be reviewing your code this afternoon, but I am a poor coder.

This is a different problem: which links? I need to see on the website.
