Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

[DivaVocals]

Now I have all 3 links in the 'Extras' section of the admin. However, still could not solve for the Links Manager link under the 'Configuration' section, the only admin Links Manager files I found in the mod's folder are these:

Same way you add ANY admin menu item.. Go back to the link I posted (HINT: it includes a link to the source of the FAQ where more will be revealed).. The configuration menu is SLIGHTLY different (the parameter requirements are different)

YES!! Thanks for your hint DivaVocals, the Links Manager link is finally showing under the Configuration section of my admin!

To sum things up, and as lat9 says, I created a file called links_manager.php in which I inserted the following:

<?php
define('BOX_LINKS_MANAGER', 'Links Manager');
//EOF

... and uploaded via FTP to admin/includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/links_manager.php.

Then went back to the admin page registration:

for Links Manager:
Page Key= linksmanagerconfiguration
Page Name= BOX_LINKS_MANAGER
Page Filename= FILENAME_CONFIGURATION
Page Parameters= gID=41 (your_domain.com/admin/configuration.php?gID=xx <-- type this address into your browser and keep changing the gID number until you find your Links Manager page)
Menu= select 'Configuration' from the dropdown
Display on Menu?= check the display box
Sort Order= 28 (or whatever order number you would like to assign to this item)
... then press 'insert'

... and that's it, everything is now showing like it should. Thank you so much for all your help!

Thank you all. I now have the missing links for Link Manager. While adding them I also found the missing configuration page for News & Article Management mod.

Thanks.

Hi everyone..I'm hoping someone can help. I installed the links manager to my latest zen 1.5 version. Actually this is my second attempt at installing...First time around I needed the links in the admin to show for the links configuration, etc..but I decided to uninstall it because I couldn't find an answer anywhere in the forum on how to add them. But somehow I did another search today and was surprised I finally found the recent thread on how to do it and so I re installed the links manager. Ok...the problem I'm having is now I can't add any categories. When I click on the new category button to add, there are no field boxes next to the category title or the description. I've been going crazy trying to figure out why the boxes are missing as this did not happen in my first install...Can someone please help?? Is there anything I can do to add the field boxes in so I can type my category and category description in? Thanks so much. Any help is very much appreciated.

Regards,
Julianna

Hi Julianna, did you check to see if all the files of the mod have been uploaded to the right folders and according to the file structure? There might be a file missing somewhere...

Hi, is this module on the plugin page still compatible with the latest zen cart v1.5.1?

Yes, if you read the couple of posts above yours.

Thank you.

So I've been messing around with this, and discovered something I found odd.. When viewing a specific link category page (http://yoursite.com/index.php?main_page=links&lPath=2), the "Back" button takes you back to the page you were viewing BEFORE you went to the links page..

I found that odd since I would expect that when clicking the back button from the specific links category, I woud be returned to the links homepage.(http://yoursite.com/index.php?main_page=links)

So I made the following change around line 17 of the /includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_links_default.php file.
From:

<div class="buttonRow"><?php echo zen_back_link() . zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_BACK, BUTTON_BACK_ALT) . '</a>'; ?></div>

To:

<div class="buttonRow back"><?php echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_LINKS) . '">' . zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_BACK, BUTTON_BACK_ALT) .'</a>'; ?></div>

This returns you to the links homepage (http://yoursite.com/index.php?main_page=links) as one would expect.
