Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

[clydejones]

Hi, I was wondering if there is any way to altar it so that when I point to the word inside the sidebox it shows the url of what the word goes to. I think by doing this it would allow me to show the links as if they were on the front page.

Then that would be considered as a hard link.

not from a list/dropdown box.

It will take you to that category page with a list of links appearing under that category.

Ok thanks a lot. I have fully installed it and have been messing around for a while. I found out how to edit the message on the submit page, but I failed to figure out how to edit these at the top

Where is it that I can edit the following at. I searched all over lol. I feel stupid. :)

Thanks for all of your replys and have a great day.

Sorry last question hehe, but how do I position this, no matter what I do it ends up at the top of all of my sideboxes. I know how to position left or right, but how do you move it up or down?

Thanks again
Matt

I'm guessing you mean the sidebox itself:
set its sort order admin -> tools -> layout boxes controller

Hi, maybe it is just me and I get a lot of problems, but here is something that I found out about this mod.


Ok first off no one will count any of these links that I am placing as reciprocal links. They said that they can't find the page so then I did a manual check I wen't to http://www.webconfs.com/reciprocal-link-checker.php and tried to find a link on a specific page that I have a link on and it said that it dosn't exist.

Well I know it does exist because the link works and goes right to the webiste.

I then kinda got worried about it and the fact that search engines might not be finding these links because they can't follow these links.

I then did some more research and there are many forums note only found older forums not newer that posted that these type of addons won't be counted in google links threw webmaster tools.

I was wondering if you could shed some light on this matter or maybe tell me something that I need to do to show these as a true reciprocal link.

Have any of your links that you put in one of these shown up in a search engine yet?

Thanks for your replys

Please do not take any of the offensive this is a great addon and I would recommend it to anyone to use. I am just making sure that i am doing this corretly.

The mod uses re-directed and not direct links

Hi Guys,

Just downloaded Link Manager 3.0, can I use this to have STATIC DIRECT TEXT LINKS in that sidebox and also direct button and graphic links? I hope so, other link partners don't want a tracking url, otherwise what is my best option for this?

also before I install, I was running Zen Cart v1.2.6 and Links_Manager_1.5 before

I did not really use Links_Manager_1.5 and only spam and ############ sites joined so I do not care if I lose the info and start again that is fine.

I now upgraded my site to Zen Cart v1.3.7 (actually made a fresh install of Zen Cart v1.3.7 and ported the database across), so database modifcations will be there but the FILES from before are not, so do I treat this as an UPGRADE or FRESH INSTALL of Links_Manager_1.5??

No the mod uses links within specific categories and the links are re-directed.

If you decide to install the mod, based on your description, you should treat it as a fresh/new installation,

Hello there,

With regards to direct links, I used this mod on an older version:-

http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...=links+manager

I since tried this with the recent version, but it breaks somewhere, and throws an error.

Just thought I'd throw this one out to see if there is a way to use it with current versions.

Thanks
