Two Links Mod Requests
I am not yet a Links v2.0 user, primarily because of two mods currently employed on my Links v1.11 db:

- Expirator. Expires a links entry (and deletes it) and notifies the author
- Password Mod. Prevents unauthorized modification of a db entry

If anyone has written a v2.0 mod for either (both) of these, or if someone is interested in taking on the task, I would be very interested in hearing of it.

See http://www.orphanage.com/...stuff/links_mod.html

While it does not use passwording, it is fairly secure.

I hope this helps.

TriJason,

Right now, the sub site_html_print_cat in site_html.pl is used to create the category listings for all the pages that categories appear on. This means, they will all look the same.

If you want to create a different category list for the home page than is used on the category page, you need to create a separate routine, for example, sub site_html_print_home_cat in site_html.pl. Just copy everything from sub site_html_print_cat, except for the new and number of links lines, to the new routine. Then go to nph-build.cgi in the sub build_home_page and change &site_html_print_cat to &site_html_print_home_cat, and that should do it.

I hope this helps.
