New LinkSQL suggestion
I just thought I should post new needed features...
My main requested feature is the highly needed customization in LinkSQL...
Here's I will try to explain...

If a average Joe like me, wants to add suppose LinkSQL for movie database...
When Installing LinkSQL... should be prompted for Wizard where he can add different fields, like
Movie Name (text field)
Year (num field)
Director (text field)
Cast (text field)
Rating/Review (which is already their in LinkSQL & is sufficient)
Picture (photo field)
Yes/No (field)
No LINK field needed

Search field choose available for users to search by example (find results of 1994 & xxx director & sort by year).

I hope I am able to explain this, I have seen some advance LinkSQL sites where this is done, modifying to templates & database fields, but for average person, it maybe out of reach, unless he knows all this. Have some Wizard in LinkSQL which does it step by step selecting (# of fields / Name of fields / type of fields ) & then compile LinkSQL accordingly as well as modify the database.

With this feature, Gossamer's LinkSQL will have a bigger market not just limiting to links directory, but any kind of online databases, so more new paid members with join. As Link directory concept is getting very old & had already matured.Unsure




Btw, if anyone aware of any current document or thread that explains doing this manually adding fields & templates I also searched Forums, but nothing located in one place. Please let me know for LinkSQL 3.0.3. Wink
