Feature requests » something to think about.

Hello,

First i want to compliment you with this wonderfull script. I'm using it for 3 days now and im wondering why i never
find this one before. Im just lovin' it.

But want to see some things in future releases.

First i want to see that i can change the amount of links on the edit page, to make it possible to change hunderds of
links at once.

Second of that, to make mass-importing easier, i would like to be able to choose a catagory in the mass importer. Also
options if those links should be checked or not. I use the program to ouput a page with dozens of links to sponsors wich
not always need a recip link.

Third, on the edit page i want to see a direct link to the ($URL) value. There are links to the whois server to check
the IP adn domain name, but no direct link to the website or recip page itself.

Thats all for now :) If i missed something or described something wich is already in the program, u are allowed to kick
my ass :P

Thanks again for writing such a wonderfull program!

P.S. is there any chance for an MYSQL version of the DB ? My hostingprovider got some major troubles with writing files
on the server sometimes, so im a bit scared of losing my DB one day..

Hey there.

Thanks for the kind words!!

Actually the option on how many links that are displayed is allready there. In the admin setitngs, the "Display
limit" is a limit on how many items that are displayed in the admin.

The category on mass import, is excellent! I'll have it ready for the next release.

The direct link is also a great idea. Actually I have thought about that myself, but I always forgot it when making
updates :)

I'm not sure about the MySQL version. Do you know what the problem with your server is? I'd rather make a more failsafer
file handler. But only because I want the script to be as simple as possible.

I'll try and have a new version ready soon with the features you requested

I was also thinking about 'display only selected category' on the display page or add a search filter with category
settings.

Last night i was also thinking about 'easy linking'. You running a list of all the linkex users. I was looking for some
trades of links and everytime i needed to add the remote site to my own database first before i was able to add my site
to the remote site.

i noticed that the linkex program is only able to run from the /linkex folder. that means that on every server the
linkex program can be found on the same location.

What about an option in the tools area to submit a servername there?

For example. my servername is mytgpfiles.com and i want a linktrade with example.com. i know that on example.com the
linkex program is running. in the tools area of my linkex admin, i submit the domain 'example.com' to the easy trader.

The linkex program on my server requests information from the linkex program on example.com. When the connection is
established, the 2 servers exchanging the linking information and the linktrade is there without any repetetive typing.


if u can understand my explaining in my bad english :)

Hey again.

I have been thinking about the same thing with the easy link exchange, it's partly the reason I made the script so it'll
only run from this folder :)

Stay tuned :)
