Hey now:
I didn't like the way the program "dropped" my links from the menu on the front page.
So, used the Links Admin Menu and put in 31636000 (1 Year) and now I get:
Links last %t %s
No recent new links
I put it back to 1209600 and my front page links showed up.
What am I missing if I want my links to stay permanently, unless they get "pushed off" by
the Links per Page value?
What is the Max value acceptable in gl_conf_values:newlinksinterval ?
Thanks for your time.

Looks like our function to create those texts in the What's New block ("last 2 days", etc.) has a few problems.
I'd say in this list here (in function COM_formatTimeString in lib-common.php):
// different time intervals: hour, day, week, months
$time_divider = array( 60, 60, 24, 7, 30 );
The "30" should actually be a "4".
With that change, I can get 14515200 to display as "last 6 months". Once it gets closer to a year, we run into the next limit. Haven't quite figured out how to fix that.
I'd say submit a bug report. Someone needs to sit down with that function for an hour or two and figure out how it's supposed to work once we reach more than a few months ...
bye, Dirk
