Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

[psr racing]

OK mine seems to be working now, ihhghb are you turning on the 'sideboxes/yourtemplate/links_box.php' under layout boxes controller not 'sideboxes/link_listing'?

[psr racing]

What does 'reciprocal page details' mean? Does the links box only show when there are links as I deleted the zen cart link and the box dissapeared. Also I still get jumbled text when I switch on the 'sideboxes/link_listing? what does that one do and do I need it to have an operational links box?

Reciprocal Page: The absolute URL of your links page, where a link to our website will be listed/displayed.

The side box only shows (even if turned on in admin) when there are links.

URL for your site. so I can take a look.

The file structure should look like this:

includes/modules/link_listing.php
includes/modules/sideboxes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/links_box.php

I already deleted it, but I only had one link box that I could turn on in the layout boxes controller...mine said sideboxes/links_box and that was what i turned on..

[psr racing]

The file structure should look like this:

includes/modules/link_listing.php
includes/modules/sideboxes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/links_box.php

I have that but I've also got includes/modules/sideboxes/links_box.php,
include/modules/sideboxes/link_listing.php and includes/modules/sideboxes/links_boxes.php.

Which of the files in links manager contained the info for the zencart link as I deleted that link and now wish I hadn't. I want to reinstall that file so I can look at the zencart link details as I'm having trouble getting any links to work.

[clydejones]

I have that but I've also got includes/modules/sideboxes/links_box.php,
include/modules/sideboxes/link_listing.php and includes/modules/sideboxes/links_boxes.php.

Hello, clydejones:

I installed your links manager and testimonial manager on my sites. www.thesbeauty.com, www.roseforlove.com

Problem occured when I just want to have a try by adding links or testimonials on my sites. I filled in everything on the webpage and clicked on "submit". Nothing showed, no matter I submited a link or a testimonial. Nothing showed. Then I went to the admin to see whether I can find my submitted links or tesmonial there. Nothing showed in the admin panel either.

Can you help to fix this problem? Thank you!

Lina

Ok I can't figure out how to install this link manager, becuase again of poorly written instructions. There is no New Install folder, plus there is a bunch of files which aren't explained where they go.
