Links is an add-on to b2 weblogging software.
|
|
* It plugs in to the admin screens.
|
|
* It adds to menu commands: Link Categories and Link Manager
|
|
* It allows you to define multiple categories under which to store your links.
|
|
* You can then define links with a url, name, optional image, href
|
|
target and category.
|
|
* You can then list your links in your template with a simple function call.
|
|
* You can list them by category id or category name
|
|
* You can specify text or html to be output before and after each link.
|
|
* You can specifiy the sort order of the links displayed.
|
|
* You can add a 'star' rating to your links.
|
|
* There is special category type, auto-toggle which will allow only on link in
|
|
the category to display at once.
|
|
* Each link is owned by the user who created it. You can only edit or delete
|
|
links created by you or someone with a lower b2 administration level than you.

You can download it from http://zed1.com/links/links-1.1.zip or http://zed1.com/links/links-1.1.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
There is an html version of this readme file at
|
|
http://zed1.com/links/links.html with screenshots and more detailed info.
|
|
|
|
Installation:
|
|
|
|
1. Execute the SQL from the file links.sql. This will create the two
|
|
tables and add a default category and an example link. Alternatively, upload
|
|
the file links.install.php to your B2 installation directory and
|
|
load it into your browser.
|
|
|
|
2. Edit the b2-include/b2menutop.txt file to add in the two new commands.
|
|
|
|
5 linkcategories.php Link Categories
|
|
5 linkmanager.php Link Manager
|
|
|
|
Note: there should be a tab character after the 5 and after the filename.
|
|
|
|
3. Add the files linkcategories.php, linkmanager.php, links.config.php,
|
|
and links.php into your b2 install directory.
|
|
|
|
4. Edit links.config.php to your requirements. There are comments in the file
|
|
to explain each configuration variable.
|
|
|
|
5. Login and click on the Link Categories menu command. Here you can
|
|
create or edit link categories.
|
|
- Name is the name of the category.
|
|
- Auto-toggle: if you check this box, this category will only allow one link
|
|
in this category to be visible at a time. If you edit an existing link or
|
|
create a new one with the visible flag set on; all the other links in this
|
|
category will be turned off. You can use this feature for a current mood
|
|
category or current CD.
|
|
|
|
6. Click on the Link Manager command to edit links:
|
|
- The url is the href part of the link tag. This is optional; if you wanted
|
|
to, for example, use it for mood icons.
|
|
- The name will either be the linked word(s) or the alt and title tag for
|
|
the image.
|
|
- Image will be used as the src for an image tag. Use either an absolute
|
|
address or one relative to your template.
|
|
- Target is the target of the link. _blank to open in a new browser window,
|
|
and _top to open in the same window.
|
|
- Category is the category under which to store this link.
|
|
- Description is the description to be used as the title tag for the link
|
|
(if it exists) and the text displayed after the link when no image is
|
|
defined.
|
|
- Visible flag is used to turn off an individual link. Perhaps when a site
|
|
goes down temporarily but you don't want to delete your link. See also
|
|
auto-toggle categories above.
|
|
- Rating is used to display a number, a number of characters, an image, or a
|
|
number of images after the link.
|
|
|
|
7. In your template include_once("links.php")
|
|
- You can then <?php echo get_linkcatname(1); ?> or any category id. This will
|
|
output the name of the category (perhaps for a heading)
|
|
- Then <?php get_links(1); ?> to output all the links in category 1. You can
|
|
also specify text to be output before and after the link, and the order of
|
|
the links.
|
|
- You can also <?php get_linksbyname('General'); ?> to output all the links in
|
|
the category called General.
|
|
- Other functions are get_linksbyname_withrating(), get_links_withrating(),
|
|
and get_linkcatname().
|
|
- See the comments above each function for full details.
|
|
|
|
9. Bookmarklet: I have a partially working bookmarklet to add to your browser
|
|
toolbar.
|
|
- Clicking on this while viewing a site will cause the 'add a link' form to
|
|
pop up in a new window with the site url and title pre-filled.
|
|
- This currently *only* works if you are already logged in to b2. The
|
|
bookmarklet *only* works in Mozilla.
|
|
|
|
Updating:
|
|
|
|
1. If you are updating from a pre 0.5 version, you will need to execute the sql
|
|
in links.update-0.5.sql
|
|
2. If you are updating from a pre 0.7 version, you will need to execute the sql
|
|
in links.update-0.7.sql
|
|
3. If you are updating from a pre 1.0 version, you will need to execute the sql
|
|
in links.update-1.0.sql
|
|
|
|
