This could be useful for: people hosting images or videos where different quality (resolution) versions of the content are being offered.
Also, it could be useful as a file mirror.

Anyway, just another bit of input. One particular reason why I personally would love this, is I have the most recent downloads being displayed through vba CMPS on my index. However, because the content I offer has different quality versions, each new entry is duplicated (or triplicated, depending on how many versions I have). I thought perhaps to request having the links on the portal system selectable by category. But instead, I think what I have proposed above is a better solution, because it would not only fix the portal problem, but it would clean up the categories for those who have multiple categories for different quality versions.

Amazing hack as always, just my wishful thinking.

Thanks - I will keep this on the list, but it won't make 2.1.5 (which may end up being called 2.1.6 or even 2.2.0 ) - it needs a rethink of the logic to be able to handle this clearly. What will happen in the official 2.1.5 (6,2.0,,) is that I have dealt with Shiva's request to autoparse urls, so if you drop a url into the description of the entry, this will be selectable. Unfortunately, this doesnt hide/manage the link, but it's a first step.
