My page template uses Php, asp, or SSI (server side includes). These work fine on my link pages, but not on my search results page or the page returned when "Fetch Info" is used on my link submission form. Why?

Php, asp and SSI all require that your web server process the page before sending it out. This works fine for the static HTML pages that LinkMachine generates, such as your link directory pages. But, the search results page and the page that is returned when the link submission form is submitted  for "Fetch Info" are not static, they are generated by Php. Because these pages that are output by Php cannot be processed by the server a second time (for whatever Php, asp, or SSI they contain), those dynamic elements do not work on these pages generated by LinkMachine.

Unfortunately the only way to circumvent this problem is to create a static template to use for just those pages that will not work with a dynamic template. To do this you can view one of your link pages in a browser (one of the pages that is based on your dynamic template). Then use the browser's "View Source" option to show the HTML code that has been generated for that page. Copy the code for the page and paste it into a text editor. Cut out the section of the page that LinkMachine inserted (the table of links, etc.) and replace it with the word #CONTENT#. Save the file and upload it to LinkMachine as a page template (On the Link Page Format settings page). Select this new template from the drop down menus Submission Page Template and Search Results Page Template, then click Submit Changes. Your new static template will now be used for those pages.
