Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

clydejones:

@Doodlebuckets, cjcrafts, jeking

Can you guys check out the banner image upload option for Links Manager.

You can do it here

Let me know if This is close to what you wanted.

Note: Please try it both ways 1 upload an image and 2 no image.

Many Thanks

I just added my link and left my image at it's original size (not sure what that is even). I'm curious to see how it appears. I'd think most people are not going to resize and shape their image just for a link from my site. As long as it appears proportional, I'm thinking it's fine.

That's cool. I will make sure to list what the dimensions will be to submitters so that they know. I appreciate your adding this feature and putting all the images for links in their own folder :o)

Amy,

How did you do the "Date Reminder" option? I'd like to try adding something similar to my daughter's web site.

Check your link here.

As I told Amy, the image will resize to whatever settings you have in the admin options.

Re: Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

Hello
on the Links Submission page I don't have the option to upload a banner image (as saw on Clyde's Test Site).

I've been throught most of the pages of this thread but haven't found the solution.

All the rest looks like is working fine.
Thanks for any help

Re: Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

Hi Clyde,

I have a small problem and I don't seem to be able to fix it. My popup help window is useing the background image even though I have changed the tpl_main_page.php file to:
?>

I have also changed my css file to:
}
#popupShippingEstimator, #popupLinksHelp, #popupSearchHelp, #popupAdditionalImage, #popupImage, #popupCVVHelp, #popupCouponHelp, #popupAtrribsQuantityPricesHelp, #infoShoppingCart {
background-color : #eee8aa;
background-image: none;
}

I have no idea what is happening as my other popup windowa are working fine and they are useing the background colour as per above of #eee8aa. Can you throw any light on what may be happening. Thanks

this may help:

open the tpl_main_page.php file and find:

<div class="centerColumn" id="ezPageDefault">

and change to:

<div class="centerColumn" id="popupLinksHelp">

Re: Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

Hi Clyde,

OK it does send a message to the submitter but the address it shows is as you say veroniqu@ not my domain DOT com. Where is it getting this adress from as it is not one set up in my control panel. It did not send me a message saying that there was a submitted link awaiting approval.

I'm guessing that it is from this entry in your e-mail configuration

Email Address (Displayed to Contact you)

If that is the case then it also send the notification to that address
