need to make so you can exclude Featured Site from appearing in categories (of choice)....it can be confusing or sometimes...just not appropriate to appear.

You can set the featured_all_categories setting off so that featured sites are drawn from the favourites in the current category. This enables you to have featured sites in some categories and not others, provided the entries are members of those catgeories. If you want to be able to draw a random collection of featured sites from all categories but only display them in some, then I will have to make a small change (I think it involves literally adding two characters to the code...) to make this possible.

Hrm. I installed this but its too much for my needs. Great hack overall but for just a links page (what I need) its overkill.

Just to show that there's nothing better to do on an airplane than think about coding...

Easy fix, with one provisio - if the entry is placed into more than one category, then the link will always take the user to one of these categories, which I don't think is an issue.

Bear in mind that if you subsequently delete the entry, then the thread and url will still be there and will not work. I can't do anything about that.

Since there is no text or explanation of what is happening from a user perspective.... Users will have NO IDEA where or how the thread is being created when adding links. took me a bit to figure it out actually :( (granted...I'm a dope a lot of the times but.... so are most users. :p).

I've changed it to give a different message, along the lines of 'your entry has been accepted and posted into forum XXX'

By the way, I realised that no autopost should be made if moderation is turned on - that situation needs a little more thought - possibly the autocreate should happen when the moderator accepts the post.

:confused: what is that? ugh! to broken images. :( see attached image.

That looks like someone's avatar is broken/wrong

I was gunna use the table format, but when I do the featured sites still come out as default linkbit, so it looks weird/inconsistent on the page.

Am adding a template choice in the settings for featured sites and well as standard entries. Both should be selectable.

This is only a problem if you use category selection boxes rather than the menu. It's fixed on my laptop.

This is built into VBUlletin abd I can't change it without duplicating a chunck of their code. Is it a big issue?

Really if you still have a very first version that doesn't have all the extra stuff, that would be great! I'm administering a site for my friends sorority and I just need a page people can post the links to their chapters to and everybody else can see.

This sounds like a job for my "Thread as Link" Andrew! Get to it! :banana:

The *very* first versions were for VB 3.0, but the early versions for VB 3.5 should still be ok.

EricaJoy 03-29-2006 01:53 PM

thanks so much! i'll handle the rest with template modifications. you are the greatest. :)

spoke too soon. *sigh* still too much going on, unfortunately. i'll keep looking for something, thanks for your help though.

|oR|Greg 03-29-2006 02:33 PM

Ya know, if you edit the add link template, and set the settings to allow null fields, you very well might have what you're looking for.

EasyTarget 03-29-2006 03:44 PM

princess its pretty easy to use this hack for just the links, and it works great for user submitted links. I don't think you'll find anything to surpass this. If its too much just don't use the other parts. (just set permissions and the link style you want to use once and you won't have to touch it again)
