Paid [XTR] External Links Redirect Warning 1.0.7

• SEO Improvements: Added "noindex" meta tags to redirect pages. This prevents search engines like Google from indexing these temporary intermediate pages.
• XFRM Integration: XenForo Resource Manager (XFRM) support is now included. External download and purchase buttons in resources will now trigger the redirect warning.
• New Control Options: New admin visibility toggles added to enable or disable redirections for XFRM downloads and purchases independently.

With this update, we’ve made the [XTR] External Links add-on more functional and secure. For forums using the Resource Manager (XFRM), the new integration allows you to warn users about external download and purchase links. The refactored style grouping puts design control entirely in your hands. Additionally, we’ve protected your forum’s SEO quality with the new "noindex" improvement.

New Features

• Redirect Log System: External link clicks are now stored in the database (user, IP, date, URL).
• Admin Panel Log Viewer: Added [XTR] External Links section in ACP. Supports listing, viewing, deleting, and bulk cleaning.
• Filtering: Logs can be filtered by user and URL.
• 4 New Interface Styles: Classic, Modern, Minimal, Card.
• Style Enhancements: Extended Style Properties with many new customization options.
• SVG-based Countdown: Modern style now uses SVG circle progress instead of CSS hacks.
• Automatic RTL Detection: Automatically detects text_direction with manual override support.

Security Fixes

• Removed $_GET: Replaced unsafe direct access with $this->filter('to', 'str').
• base64 Strict Mode: Enabled strict mode and added URL validation to reject malformed inputs.

This release introduces significant improvements to the External Links add-on.

With the new Redirect Log system, all external link interactions are now recorded in detail. These logs can be easily viewed, filtered, and managed via the Admin Control Panel.

On the UI side, 4 new styles (Classic, Modern, Minimal, Card) have been added, along with extended Style Properties for better customization. The Modern style now features an SVG-based countdown for smoother performance and better visuals.

Additionally, the system automatically detects the active language direction (RTL/LTR) for improved compatibility.

Security has also been enhanced by removing direct $_GET access and enforcing strict validation in base64 decoding.

This update delivers improvements in performance, security, and overall user experience.
