Hi (I have bought a LSQL license a few days ago)....

here is my prob : some time ago PUGDOD said the following thing :

###################
.... if each sub category could use a diffent links database, and set of templates, but share a common top-level, then you could really easily integrate several features into Links, such that Links becomes a "community" program, not just a links program. One category could be "links" another could be "classifieds" another could be "shopping" (something I'm working on now), etc.

The central logic for all of these is the same -- database access and generation of a categorical output page -- but the data required by each is different.

If the links off the main categories were of a page.cgi?parameters variety, and the navigation bars also contained "dynamic" linking, then the templates could be static, and tailored to each different subcategory, but you'd "jump" or "cgi" out of that category to the new area.

Dynamic generation would not be affected much, since you'd just be passing another paramter to mark which database you are using, not only the template set and location.

Coupled with user registration and some of the things Alex has hinted he's been working on, you then have a complete community builder program, that is one step away from "home pages" communities, but very close to a "my page" like on Yahoo.....

I exactly want to do this ("One category could be "links" another could be "classifieds" another could be "shopping""),

Does it exists, I could pay for this

Thanks

Hi,

This sort of change is far from simple, and if you need it quickly, it would be cheaper and faster to get several Links SQL licenses, one for running each section, and then a little custom programming to tie in the home page.

Cheers,

Alex
