Products: Gossamer Links: Discussions: [suggestion] Full Category in Browser: Edit Log

Here is the list of edits for this post
[suggestion] Full Category in Browser
I found this also:

Quote:


$category->select ( { ID => $category_id }, ['ID', 'Name', 'Number_of_Links'] )

add ... $category->select ( { ID => $category_id }, ['ID', 'Name', 'Number_of_Links', 'Full_Name'] )

... than at ... $self->print_template ( "browser_category.html",

add ... Long => $info->{Full_Name},

... and in /templates/admin/browser_category.html

Change the second "Browse: <%Name%>" ... to ... "Browse: <%Long%>"


But unfortunately this requires modification to browser.pm. Which is something I don't want to do.

I notice there are some old posts (2000ish) about putting this into Links. It looks like it would be a simple inclusion from the above code.

I would like to see this included in an upgrade with three possibilities:

Short Title: Travel and Tourism

Long Title: Travel and Tourism / Lodging / Bed and Breakfasts / Ontario / North Bay

Condensed Title: Travel and Tourism /.../Ontario/North Bay

The condensed title would allow length category titles to fit onto the screen without wrapping - say top category and last two categories, thats enough to know where you are usually.

I believe these are essential to editing, especially when you have multiple categories, and even more so if these categories have the same name!



In the mean time, I'd like to try and get this global working :-)
