Update note :
You can show links list without widget, just add this code into your themes, not post/page textarea! Anyway you can do it if you have execPHP plugin installed in your WordPress
<?php if(function_exists('wpExLinksList')) {wpExLinksList();} ?> |
Default will show links list in unordered list with div id=”wpExLinks” for setting in CSS and no limit number links, order by name, and ASCENDING. Please refer to readme.html file for details.

Hi there.
I installed your plugin and it works great,
when I use this code on a page –
it displays BOTH my links and the link exchange form, is there any way to get it to display only links without using the widget?
Thankyou
sorry the code didnt display but I mean the php code you display at the end of your post that is used to display links without widget
thankyou here is example
http://www.abbeymillfencing.co.uk/links/ test.com is link from your plugin so it works great, but I dont want the submit form I have it on its own as per your instructions here
http://www.abbeymillfencing.co.uk/exchange-links-with-us/
thankyou
yes, u can use separately code to display just link without widget or form, please install php exec plugin for WP first
regards
Hi thanks for your reply,
I have installed execPHP plugin and when I use the code you specified in the instructins it displays BOTH the links and the link exchange form.
Is this normal?
Normal if u view your exchange link page
but if view another page, but form still exists, that’s unnormal..
if you still have another problem, i can view your blog directly, just provide me ur URL, user, pass and email it to greenhouseprod[at]g-m-a-i-l.com
regards
Thankyou thats fine form is only where it should be so no problem.
I can make a widget area in the content area to display the links widget without needing to see links and form together.
Thankyou for your quick replies
Allright, no problem
regards
Is it work perfectly at wordpress 2.8.4?
yup

Greetings,
I love the plug-in which I recently obtained and I am using on two blogs but I found there is an issue with the length of the dialog box for inputting a reciprocal link. Some of these can be quite long and I discovered one I just tried to input is dropping part of the URL making it impossible to verify the link.
Are you by any chance aware of this? If so is there a fix?
Thanks and good work.
Hi ..
thnx for your appreciation
for quicker dirty mode, you can change length of input in your phpmyadmin …
search for table wp_wpxlink, and change value length of field web_url and rec_url into 255
sorry for late update
regards
Well thanks but that is way over my head. I went into the phpmyadmin but it does not show any database. This is a WordPress blog of course and as far as I know it sets up it’s own database and is not part of the MySQL database in phpmyadmin so I could not locate it. Any other suggestion on how to make the modification on a WordPress database to achieve the desired result?
@Bard
Hi, table wp_wpxlink is inside your wp table

Hi, If I install this plug-in, can I order the links by amount of traffic sent by link partners? If not, have you considered making that an option?
hi,
there’s no option like that for now. maybe your idea can be the next version
regards
thnx

Hi
I like this plugin! I’m going to integrate it on some of my sites. I need some tweaks , ok URL Reciprocal is limited to 55 characters, which not fit for me.
Do you plan new version soon?
