Sounds great.
Looking forward for your feedback after using the Expanded Edition, and waiting for your appreciated "German" translation .

Regarding your first feature request about unmasking/decrypting (linksave.in, linkcrypt.ws) links, I've added it as a feature request for the upcoming version HERE. I think that "linkcrypt.ws" is possible, but "linksave.in" isn't. I'll see & reply later on that issue. You can subscribe to the issue so you get further updates.

Regarding your second feature request: I've added a feature request to support FTP links HERE, but the "username & password" check I don't think it's clear. In which format does those links appear? Can you give more details please ...
Thanks for your great feedback.

Don't worry. If you can't do that manual edit yourself, just disable the product for few hours till I release the next version update that fixes this issue. (Yes, Today)
By the way, that query inside the cronjob file.
Thanks for your patience.

Regarding your first feature request about unmasking/decrypting (linksave.in, linkcrypt.ws) links, I've added it as a feature request for the upcoming version HERE. I think that "linkcrypt.ws" is possible, but "linksave.in" isn't. I'll see & reply later on that issue. You can subscribe to the issue so you get further updates.

Regarding your second feature request: I've added a feature request to support FTP links HERE, but the "username & password" check I don't think it's clear. In which format does those links appear? Can you give more details please ...
Thanks for your great feedback.

That Sounds great too Thanks Bro.

I would order the expanded edition but i have seen you dont accept paypal i dont have MoneyBrookers, thats sounds bad :P

For the Request with the FTP i think the best solution is that check

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

With the linkdecrypter.. i think that is not easy..

Thank you very much Vietdjclub!! Did that. Now don't get error anymore, but I am not sure this works. When I run it, it almost instantly says done! I have many many links.
