Most of this is already built into Links, it would seem.

Set this to "on" in the Admin area. "User options"

Hmm.... I think I had this in the editor/logon mod (maybe not). But all that would be is adding a field to the Link record "last edit" and "edited_by" You can also write this information to a log file, so you can get a full editor or link history.

I would just add fields to the User record, and only display those fields if "isEditor" is set. A user couldn't "fake" this since the 'isEditor' is read from the Users record and is not sent to/from the forms itself.

I know what it cost to add this stuff into 1.1x version, and if you want something pretty, or that does what that did, contact me privately. But I'm sure it's not going to time-out at under $500 - more if it's a real rush.
