Should be as simple as adding a new tag in site_html_templates.pl, with something like;
open(HANDLE, "/path/to/data/folder/links.db") || die &cgierr("Cant open. Reason: $!");
my $data = <HANDLE>;
close(HANDLE);
my @exploded = split("\n",$data);
my $total = $#exploded + 1;
my $count = 0;
my $start = $total - $number_last;
foreach (@exploded)
$count++;
if ($count == $start) {
# do stuff here that will show the last links...
}
}
This is untested, and off the top of my head, so it probably won't work without a few tweaks. I don't have a copy of Links 2 with me, so unfortunatly I can't give you a more detailed answer to your question, with exact instructions (sorry).
