WordPress Exchange Links Plugin – AJAX Version
Let me introduce a new plugin called WpExLinks. This is my first plugin for WordPress that enable you to build your links network with other webmaster. This proccess now more easier in WordPress realm. We can automate the proccess and we’ll get some notification email in the end of proccess. Here are some feature from my plugin :
- Auto checking error if this fields were blank (name, email, website title, website URL, reciprocal URL, website description)
- Checking for valid format of email, website url, reciprocal url
- Checking for status reciprocal url before submitted
- Auto blocked same domain submitted
- Integrate AJAX CAPTCHA and AJAX sending form in user interface
- Notification email for admin when some submit link
- Edit Links Page! available
- Widget already
- Easy manage links (delete, approve, unapprove, check reciprocal links) from Options page
Here are installation step :
- Make sure you upload a whole folder WpExLinks into your wp-content/plugins, please keep the structure files
- Activate both WpExLinks plugin and WpExLinks widget from your Dashboard
- Create a new page, give a title as you like (ex. Exchange Links) and paste the code in the textarea and publish
<!--wpExLinks--> |
- Set WpExLinks options if you need from Settings > Wp Exchange Links options page (default is enough to run)
- Finished! Now everyone want to do exchange links with you just refer to Exchange Links Page

hello ,
AJAX CAPTCHA does not work..
please help
Oh Great, i need your permision to add this plugin to my Indonesian Design Blog

Once I plug in a Link it brings me to a 404 page. Doesn’t display any output
Greetings!
I love the plugin. A couple of things I could use a little help on..
1. Captcha does not work – is there a fix?
2. I am trying to create a page that shows the ‘links’ I put it under the parent category of ‘exchange links’ and there is 1 test link I have created just to see it and I cannot see it.
Can you please give me a little guidance – I am new to WordPress so please be gentle
Thanks..
Robyn
404 is because the directory for an uploaded plug in is “wp-ex-links”… change it to: wpExLinks.
Thanks for this plugin!

Great plugin. After reading your last post I finally fixed my 404 error at my site. Put the plugin in the wpExLinks folder (note the capitals, the plugin is case sensitive!!!!!)
Now Captcha and 404 have disappeared. Thank you very much. You can see the working example at: http://itil.healthcheck-online.com/?page_id=122
