This is really curious as I did post something.
Any way here is it:
This global is great: it allows me to display on the front page the latest xx links. However, there is a problem when a link belongs to several categories: it appears duplicated. For example, if a link belongs to 3 categories, the global will diplay it 3 times.
So what should I add so no matter how much categories a links belongs to, it will be displayed only once ?
Thanks in advance,

my ($output,$sth,$link);
my $search_db = $DB->table('Links','CatLinks');
$search_db->select_options ('ORDER BY Add_Date DESC Limit 30');

Links::init_date();
$link->{Add_Date} = GT::Date::date_transform ($link->{Add_Date}, $CFG->{date_db_format}, $CFG->{date_user_format});
if ($x < 15) {
$output .= Links::SiteHTML::display('linkfront', $link);
}
else {
$output .= Links::SiteHTML::display('linkfront', $link);
}
$x++;
}
return $output;
}
