Any ideas please?

EDIT: After doing some digging it is the width of the field links_image_url that is causing the problem - how do I change it?

URL for your site?

Hi All,

I have recently installed this mod on my site. I have found a problem and wondered who might be able to help me?

When I go to admin->extras->links and try to add a link, there isn't a place to submit the info. I have the form, but no submit button. In addition there is an error on the bottom of the page that reads, "Options
Status: Catchable fatal error: Object of class queryFactoryResult could not be converted to string in ..........com/admin/includes/functions/html_output.php on line 333 "

I'm not sure what to do with this error........HELP!!!

Also, is there a way to not require a reciprocal link?

Currently, No, there is no way to set these to a maximum value.

I have an issue with the way the categories are displayed in the center colum. The CSS included with the mod is correct but I can't get the output on the site to match the CSS.

I have the link manager configured to display 3 categories per row. But the output on the site is one column I even added 4 categories and still get only one column. I am not using the original css so I have changed some of the classes to match my templete but I didn't do anything to the module files so It should work fine. I integrated the stylesheets with my original Stylesheet.

Please let me know if there is a fix for that before I continue implementing the classes of my templete in this mod's templete.

This is the code with the correct classes which will give you the three across display:

This is the css for this display:

Code:

---

.linkstext{padding: 10px 0;float:left;width:33%;text-align:center;font-size:1em;}

---

Code:

---

<h1>Links</h1>

<div class="linkstext"><a href="http://www.mysticmountainnaturals.com/demotest/index.php?main_page=links&amp;lPath=6">
      <img src="images/link_category/bath_beauty.png" alt="Bath and Beauty" title=" Bath and Beauty " width="80" height="80" /><br />Bath and Beauty</a></div>
<div class="linkstext"><a href="http://www.mysticmountainnaturals.com/demotest/index.php?main_page=links&amp;lPath=8">
      <img src="images/link_category/candles.png" alt="Candles" title=" Candles " width="80" height="80" /><br />Candles</a></div>
<div class="linkstext"><a href="http://www.mysticmountainnaturals.com/demotest/index.php?main_page=links&amp;lPath=10">
      <img src="images/link_category/computers.png" alt="Computers, Electronics, Gadgets" title=" Computers, Electronics, Gadgets " width="80" height="80" /><br />Computers, Electronics, Gadgets</a></div>

Your display is as follows:
If you are going to use this <div class="content"> you will have to define the content class in the stylesheet so that it will out put the proper display:

.content{padding: 10px 0;float:left;width:33%;text-align:center;font-size:1em;}

However doing this will have an effect on other pages which use the content class for display.

My recommendation would be to use the class="linkstext" instead of the class="content"

Code:

---

<h1>Links</h1>
<div class="content"><a href="http://www.coolcarpartsonline.com/index.php?main_page=links&amp;lPath=1">
      <img src="images/link_category/Automotive_Category_image.bmp" alt="Automotive" title=" Automotive " width="80" height="60" /><br /><div class="linkboxcontent">Automotive</div></a></div>
<div class="content"><a href="http://www.coolcarpartsonline.com/index.php?main_page=links&amp;lPath=2">
      <img src="images/pixel_trans.gif" alt="Business" title=" Business " width="1" height="1" /><br /><div class="linkboxcontent">Business</div></a></div>
<div class="content"><a href="http://www.coolcarpartsonline.com/index.php?main_page=links&amp;lPath=3">
      <img src="images/pixel_trans.gif" alt="Test" title=" Test " width="1" height="1" /><br /><div class="linkboxcontent">Test</div></a></div>

Thanks for the quick response.
2 other questions.
If you take a look at this link: http://www.coolcarpartsonline.com/links.html?lPath=1 How can I adjust the padding in the left side?
Also the header have switched down after playing with the css i added for this mod. This will only show in FF not IE. There is a gap added between the nabigation and the logo wrapper I don't know how to get rid of it.
