Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

oxicottin:

That worked great! Now I only have the new banner section in the submit portion of your module. What other files need modifyed to inclue the "Banner" addition? like when they submit it I dont see the banner entry in the admin section... What file do I have to alter to include the banner entry so I can get thier banner url?

Thanks!

Check list:
Do you have the new field included in the database table?

Catalog Side:
Do you have the sql statements necessary to read and write the information? (includes/modules/pages/links_submit/header_php.php)
Have you included the necessary error catching routines? includes/modules/pages/links_submit/jscript_main.php)
Have you included the necessary code on the submit link page?

Admin Side:
Have you included the necessary sql statements to read/write the information?
(admin/links.php)
Have you added the necessary code to display the new field? (admin/links.php)

Clyde, I just PM'd you.....

I installed link manager, but my ? is how do I adjust the size of the box that holds all the links. It is over running my side box. I have already tried to adjust it. It doesn't help. Here is my link

In your includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet.css change this on line 331.....

form, select {
display:inline;
font-size:1em;
margin:0.5em;

CHANGE TO

form, select {
display:inline;
font-size:1em;

Hope this helps! :smile:

I have updated the mod in my store to 3.2.3, but I have errors in the Stylesheet called 'links_submit.css'

The following css definitions in that stylesheet have images missing:

fieldset#personal
fieldset#contact
fieldset#secure
fieldset#news
fieldset#age
fieldset#write
legend
textarea

I don't see these images included with the mod, could you provide any guidance as to where the missing images might be found?

That section of the css file was actually used with another form I was developing and I just never commented them out.

You can use these images:

Just unzip the file and place them in your includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/images

Thanks oxicottin that did the trick. I have one ? How do I center the links that say
View All Links
Submit Link
They are to the left more than I want them to be.

add the following declaration to your stylesheet.css

#linksboxContent a {
text-align: center;
}

Thank you Clyde for the answer, but where do you put the code at in my style sheet. I put it in there but it still is not lining up in the center. I have another ? to
Clyde. How does the other person get a Reciprocal link from my site to put on there site. I see it doesn't offer them one. How do I make one to offer the others sites so I can check to see if they have it on there.
Thank you

You can put that code at the bottom of your stylesheet.css

look in admin -> configuration -> links manager

There is an option for your site name

You can check for that name and the Reciprocal link in

admin -> extras -> links

click the check link button it it finds your site name where the Reciprocal link says it is you'll get a "link found" message.

When I put my site name in admin -> configuration -> links manager, do I have to go and submit a link like everybody else does before I can check it. If you don't theres no way of checking it right. And if it finds it what will that tell me. When somebody want to trade links will it give them the Reciprocal link to my web site after they submit theres so I can check for my site or what. I'm still learning all this. I don't mean to be a pain
Thank you again

Maybe I don't understand how and what it is suppose to be for.

They submit a link on your site with a Reciprocal link location

You can check if they have already add your site as a link (admin -> extras -> links -> check link)

if they haven't they you can go to their site and submit your link on their site.

Thank you Clyde for clearing that up for me. I understand now. One more thing and I will let you rest. You said I could add this code to the bottom of my style sheet #linksboxContent a {
text-align: center;
}

But it still does not put my link in the center. Any more suggestions on how to fix this problem. Thank you again

You can change it to

#linksboxContent span {
text-align: center;
}

Now you will have to edit includes/templates/luck_charm/tpl.links_select.php

Find the following lines of code: add the highlighted changes

if (BOX_DISPLAY_VIEW_ALL_LINKS == 'true') {
$content .= '<br /><span><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_LINKS, '', 'NONSSL') . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_VIEW_ALL_LINKS . '</a></span>';
}
if (BOX_DISPLAY_SUBMIT_LINK == 'true') {
$content .= '<br /><span><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_LINKS_SUBMIT, '', 'SSL') . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_LINKS_SUBMIT . '</a></span></div>';
}

Save the file and upload to your server

Would I be right in thinking that none of those CSS definitions are required?

(Thanks for the images, anyway)

That is correct

Hi Clyde and thanks again for the help, but unfortunately it didn't work. I think I will let be. Don't look that bad anyway. There is another problem though. When you submit a link and it take you to the success page my sideboxes is everywhere on that page. If you will Clyde, submit a link and see what I'm talking about please.
Thank you again

my sideboxes are everywhere. I need to learn how to talk again...lol
Forgot to give you my link.
