Well all of us started as beginner. Many of us, learned Perl while improving our Links site. Slowly, you will also learn it. Don't afraid to ask on the forum if you don't know something, and this strong community will try help you.

I decided to list possibilities of a new Links SQL user, just for your information.
A Links SQL user has several options after he/she bought Links SQL:
1) Customize the Links SQL templates, fill the database, and feel satisfied with default features of Links SQL. If wants more go to step 2).

2) Extend features, templates with globals available for free from GT support forums. There are many of them. You can even get help developing new ones, which fit your needs. Don't afraid to ask, all of us started as beginner.

3) There are already great plugins to extend Links SQL default features (and more to come), so if you save a bit money, and buy some plugins, you can really improve your site. Several plugin are also available for FREE.

4) If your wished feature is not available yet (nor as global, nor as plugin), you can post a Custom Job request if somebody will do that for money. Depending on the difficulty of requested solution, the cost can vary from just a few bucks, to very expensive plugins.

5) When you learned a lot in improving Links SQL, learning Perl, creating globals, then you can start creating your first plugin. You will be amazed to feel how nice is to be creative & implement your own wishes into Links SQL.

Tough I know this info does not give you special info about Links SQL, but may allow to you to see your growing possibilities, and give you some courage to ask on the forum and improve Links SQL.
Good Luck!

Best regards,
