SMF Links

[woodsters]

I can creat links without any problem, but I can not find the links anywhere. How does one get to them?

[vbgamer45]

goto www.site.com/index.php?action=links

[Abavagada]

Will be able to sort and search links ? I can not find where.

I've installed both SMF Links and SMF Downloads by vbgamer. If you can do a little programming, it's not hard to use the same basic script from SMF Downloads in SMF Links. I did that on my own site, as well as some extra customization (like my stuff is language related, so I added links fields for both systems).

Both are excellent mods.

Thanks yeah I use the same core for most of my  mods SMF Links was the older of the two while SMF Downloads was newer so has better code/features etc.

If you are interested, these are how I have used these mods in my site:
Links:

Downloads: (I call them "file sharing")
http://www.parleremo.org/forum/index.php?action=downloads

can we randomize the links??

[vbgamer45]

How so? Display in random order?

[!RFAN]

Yup, whenever page is loaded the links should be in random order.

Is that possible?

[vbgamer45]

Possible yes you will need to change sql to use ORDER BY RND()

[!RFAN]

okay i'll try

I was already running 2.3 for SMF 2.0 RC 4, should I again download and install this for SMF 2.0 RC5?

[vbgamer45]

If you are upgrading to RC5 you will need the new version

[Baloch]

But the link mod version is same in SMF MOD site.

[vbgamer45]

Yes since nothing changed but RC5 support

[vbgamer45]

2.3.1
!Fixed link tree to work with subcategories

[vbgamer45]

Another update
2.3.2
+Added counting of unlimited depth subcategories link totals

[WhiteEagle]

This is just what I was looking for! I would like help to create a block for SimplePortal to display the latest links (unless there's a RSS feed?).


Edit: Thanks to Underdog, there's now a PHP portal block for this mod. Go here to get it, and if you want to see it in action, just visit Leet Link. Thanks again Underdog!

Another update
2.3.2
+Added counting of unlimited depth subcategories link totals

I am using SMF Links v. 2.3.2, and I am running into a little problem.
I am also using SMF 2.0 RC5 default theme.

If I "checked" the box "Counts child categories link totals", then it will mess up the frame.
As shown in attached pic 1, the child category links are running outside of the screen to the right.

If I "unchecked" the box "Counts child categories link totals", then everything is fine, EXCEPT it does not count the child category links, which is NOT looked good, as it shows 0, while there are many under there.
As shown in attached pic 2, the first to Titles have shown 0 links

Please help to fix this error.
Thanks much in advanced

You have many many sub categorys so they are expanding to multiple lines

You have many many sub categorys so they are expanding to multiple lines

I don't expect to get this answer from you, but can you make the text/links "wrap" inside the width of this cell (sub cat)?
Will this be the same with the PRO version?
I wish I know more about PHP.
Anyone else can help me.
Thanks much in advanced.
