How can you REMOVE directories created by the script. I installed the script and decided to change my directory naming structure when I discovered it created/generated its own directories. Now I can't remove the directories I no longer need.
FTP will NOT remove the directories and I do NOT have any type of direct shell command access.
I would like to be able to change the script configuration so that I can manage my site directories via FTP, is there any way to do this?

Hi
You need to connect to your site via SSH and delete directories manually.
One question, how did you deleted categories from db and from file system?

Hi skalinks,
Thanks for the reply. That isn't a very good option for removing directories since most hosting companies won't allow direct access. Would it be asking too much to have you change your script so the directory permissions would allow deleting from an ftp client.
When I first installed the script I had no idea it was going to create directories in my web space if I had I would have used a different naming scheme from the beginning to avoid conflicts.
To answer your question about deleting the directory I deleted the category through the admin panel of your script. they just don't get removed from the server. Now I have 2 dead directories and index.php files that I can't do anything with until I can get someone at the hosting company to delete for me.
Other than the above isssue I like your script I would LOVE your script if it didn't add directories to my web space or if it ONLY added directories to a "special" folder just for the script

Hi Steve!
Well, at first when script creates category in your hosting file system, it creates category with permission 777 and the owner of created folder is user anybody and when you try to delete this folder by other user, OS do not allow you to do it. About remote access to your hosting via SSH, dear Steve :) , what hosting do you use? I ask you about it, because it is very strange that your hosting do not allow you to access to your hosting space via SSH, I can advise you good hosting company http://www.hostforweb.com .
Also, script specially creates folders not in special folder, because the path to any category will be [i]http://you_site.com/skalinks/special_folder/category that is not so good for SEO.
Thank you!
