Categories in LinkMan?

Post by AppAl »

Hello,

I wonder is there any mod/hack which allows to add categories to LinkMan? I really like the script, but I also need categories.

Thanks in advance.

Try searching the forum first for answers

viewtopic.php?t=93

So it is not available yet.
But i think it is on Klemen's 'to do' list
I do not monitor the Gbook forums regularly anymore since I do not use the Gbook script myself anymore for a long time. But it helped me a lot in learning to understand php.

I'm not sure categories will be included in LinkMan directly, but I have plans to write a link directory script (using a MySQL database) for this. No idea when though...

Hi Klemen,

I thought i remembered you mentioning it once that you would consider supporting categories, but could not find the corresponding message.

Greetings,
Henrie

If I remember correctly you are right, I did plan this for LinkMan as well, but for efficiency and performance it makes more sense to use a MySQL database for a directory script (when I add categories people will want sub-categories, sorting, counting clicks, ... :wink: ).
