- Auto-toggle
- Auto toggle is a setting for a link category. Setting this to on means that whenever you edit links in this category, the system will only allow one link at a time to be visible. If you set a link to be visible, or create a new link with a visible state, the system will automatically turn off the visibility of all the other links in that category. Some suggestions for this functionality include a set of 'Mood' links, only one of which is 'active' at any time; or a collection of links to CD's and set the one to which you are currently listening to visible. All the other links will automatically be made invisible.
