hey everyone,

I need some help in configuring the snitz link manager 2 so i can used to make category based site for a hobby of mine!
Here is what i ented to do and if anyone can help, your help would be very much appreciated.

I am trying to use the link manager to manage and organize a bunch of links i bookmarked and i want the result to look like this example page: http://www24.brinkster.com/pointdexter/example1.html

--- Browsing history on top ex: home > topic 1> subtopic 1
--- A list of links organized by most popular on top
--- Description of links
--- and a rate me button next to the link

again, i am new to asp and would very much appreciate for any help i can get!
thanks,
hadi

PS: since there is a lot liks, i would rather not save link information gathered in the snitz database. So, if possible, please make it so that the links are saved in a saparate database than used by the forum.

I have done the top breadcrumb navigation in the style you want. At least I think. You can check it out here: http://www.skepticfriends.org/forum/links.asp

If it's the style of navigation you want, let me know and I will send it to you.

Here you go. It's really a lot easier than you might think. Instead of going down, you go sideways

<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="middle" bgColor="<%=strForumFirstCellColor%>"><b><font face="<% =strDefaultFontFace%>" size="<%=strDefaultFontSize%>" color="<% =strForumFontColor %>"><b><a href="default.asp">Home</a> > <a href="/forum/links.asp">Resources/Links</a> > <a href="links_showsub.asp?cat_id=<%=parent%>&Cat=<% =ChkString(Request.QueryString("parent_name"),"urlpath") %>"><%= chkString(cat_name, "display")%></a> > <%=sub_name%></b></font>
</font></b></td>
</tr>
</table>


This navigation was taken off of my copy of links_showall.asp

Hi @tomic,

Thanks for the information on how to do that. When I get that MOD installed I am probably going to ask you some questions on how to do something similar if I can't figure out what you did.

I do have a question for now though. Is there anyway to restrict non-members from adding links? If I was able to add the MOD successfully, I'd like to be able to perhaps send a confirmation message back to the person who posted the link. Are these two things remotely possible?

Thanks,

Ety

I thought the links manager 2 was Aznknights MOD, just version 2.

You could add something like

if mLev <> "" or mLev > "0" then

show "Add URL" link

end if

Then only members would see the link. A confirmation is emailed to the submitter when the link is validated in admin. So that is already taken care of.
