Releases: LinkStackOrg/LinkStack
LinkStack v4.6.0
New LinkStack release (version 4.6.0)
New additions:
Additional updates:
- Updated language pt-BR @LeoColman
- Refactored links page (contributors)
To ensure compatibility with the new version, some themes will require an update.
New Admin Bar
User's links pages now display an admin bar. By default, this feature is only enabled for admins.
This bar displays some basic elements to customize your page and go back to the dashboard. For admins, the bar will display a more advanced set of options to perform administrative tasks directly from the links page.
Admin View
Admin View Expanded
User View (disabled by default)
In your config, you can enable this feature for all users by ticking Panel settings>Enable Admin Bar for all users.
If you wish to disable this feature entirely, you can do so in the .env config by setting ENABLE_ADMIN_BAR to false.
Dynamic Contrast
The default theme, along with a select group of custom themes, now incorporate dynamic contrast support.
This enables elements like text and icons to maintain visibility on a variety of background colors. This ensures that text is always readable on any custom background image.
To achieve this, we adapted a JavaScript library available at: https://github.com/LinkStackOrg/background-check
Map domain to a specific profile
Admins now have the option to directly map domains or subdomains to user pages.
This feature is still in development and may be subject to change.
To use this feature, admins have to add this array to their Advanced Config:
'custom_domains' => [
['domain' => 'example.com', 'name' => 'example_user',],
['domain' => 'example.example.com', 'id' => '1',],
// more entries as needed
],
For each entry, a domain and user name or id has to be defined.
Any domain added has to be pointed to the instance and added to the vhost as an alias.
Demo:
us.linkstack.org is mapped to the admin profile on linksta.cc.

LinkStack v4.5.1
New LinkStack release (version 4.5.1)
New additions:
- Fixes for v4.5.0
- Fixed styling for report icon on various themes
- Now returning 404 on user page when user is blocked
- Updated QR code on dashboard share menu
Updated QR code on dashboard share menu
If the PHP extension Imagick is enabled, QR codes will now render as a PNG and can be downloaded.
A custom gradient can be set by adding the key 'qr_code_gradient' => [224, 36, 252, 35, 199, 225, 'diagonal'], to the advanced config.
LinkStack v4.5.0
New LinkStack release (version 4.5.0)
New additions:
Bugfixes:
- Disabled sending user registration emails if disabled in the config
- Fixed spacing on LinkStack page when share button is disabled
- Name changes now update user home page when "Set user page as Home Page" is defined
New ID system
From version 4.5.0 onwards, link and user IDs will no longer be generated sequentially.
User IDs now use a 6 digit random ID by default. Link IDs now get a random 9 digit random ID by default.
This is the system all new instances use by default. If you update, the new system will be used only for new users and links.
The old and the new system are still compatible with each other.
If you do not wish to use this new format, you can disable this in a separate config file. In your config directory, create the file linkstack.php there you must add the following keys:
'disable_random_user_ids' => 'true',
'disable_random_link_ids' => 'true',
If you wish to change the lengths of your IDs, you can define that with the following keys in the same file:
'user_id_length' => '6',
'link_id_length' => '9',
The master administrator account is permanently designated with the ID 1.
The user table is now sorted by creation date by default instead of IDs.
User report function
A new option allows users to report other users profiles. This setting is disabled by default and has to be enabled in the config.
To enable this feature on your config page in the "Application" section, enable "Enable report icon".
When enabled, this will display a small icon on all user pages. Admin and VIP pages will not display this icon.
When pressed or clicked, the icon will expand to reveal a report page link.
This link leads to a separate page with a report form. If a user accesses the page from the report link, the profile URL will already be filled.
This report page can always be accessed on example.com/report.
When submitted, this will then send a report to the admin email defined in the .env config. New instances have this field filled by default.
When updating, you may have to fill in this field manually. In the alternative config editor, fill in the field "ADMIN_EMAIL" somewhat like this:
ADMIN_EMAIL="example@exmaple.com"
The report email contains links to view the user's profile, the report type, an optional comment, the option to see the profile on the manage users page and a field to immediately remove the profile permanently.
To use this feature effectively you may want to add a custom SMTP or other mail server.
