More:

How to install?
Just download the attached file and unzip it, then open install.txt and follow the instructions. Need any help or find any bugs, please report them here. And don't hate me for the code, I tried my best!

Future:
As I like my script and need it anyway, there will be a next version of it, with more features. Some of the following features I am working on:

• New startpage with a overview of all categories and the ability to add subcategories as well
• automatic post of a new post in a specific. thread when admin / mod approved a link
• logging user who's add the link (its easy but don't had the time for this version
• categories and subcategories in Navbar
• get used of the vB rate feature and try to integrate it
• code clean up
• better translation
• and more...

INstall and upgrade

• For those of you who will install the script the first time, just download the attached file and read firsttime_install.txt.
• For those of you who allready updated the templates, just reupload "links.php" and do step 1. and 2. in upgrade_install.txt, and also open CP and add the links_redirect_add & links_redirect_url template which is attached to this message. This will fix all your probs
• For those fo you who do not change the templates yet, but installed the hack, just do whats in upgrade_install.txt
