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.

#1: Open includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_header.php
find the following section of code and delete or comment out the highlighted portion:

Code:

---

<div class="clearBoth"></div>
<!--eof-branding display-->

<!--bof-navigation display-->

---

#2: add the following declaration to your stylesheet.css (includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet.css)

#ezPageDefault p {
padding: 0 10px;
}

I have a question sorry if it's all ready answered but there so many threads here, the module looks great when you set up a link it asks for a Reciprocal Page a URL http://www.domain.com/links.php, now does this mean that the other site has to have this module installed for this to work, or can you just place a file on the other server? and when requesting links from others what links.php do I give them /includes/languages/english/template/links.php is that the right one?

Reciprocal Page: The absolute URL of your links page, where a link to our website will be listed/displayed.
Eg: http:// your-domain .com/path/to/your/links_page.*

In other words if I go to your site and create a link to my site I would put something like this in the Reciprocal Page field:

http:// www. domain.com/index.php?main_page=links&lPath=6

This is where I've placed the link to your site on my site.

If I don't have the module installed I would still use something similar such as:
http:// www.domain .com/my_links_page.*

Hope this helps

I seem to have a problem the module showed up in admin under configuration and extras but there no sidebox, any ideas?

pete

I found the problem, forgot to change one of the template directories.

thanks pete

I have installed this mod (new install) and when I try the uninstall_links_manager.sql to uninstall it, there are errors. I can't uninstall it. It gives me these errors:

You don't need to worry about those errors. They are just indicating that those particular configuration keys already exist and they were ignored.

If you check for admin -> configuration -> links manager you will find that the uninstall worked because the "Links Manager" entry should not be there.

Thank you Clyde. But how about the 'Links/Categories/Contact' under admin > extras ? How do I remove it?

I actually like this mod. But I wish I could add meta title to each page and also has some nice url.

Thanks again Clyde. Everything has been removed successfully except for one thing. Under admin > tools > layout boxes controller it shows the sideboxes/links_box.php is missing and highlighted it with red. How do I remove this missing box alert from admin?
