Creating options for Paid links in modify.cgi

I would like to give more options for Paid Users versus free listing

On modify.cgi

If the user is paid, I want to give the paid links more options. And if the link is free it just shows the orignal modify text

For an example a free link would show this on modify.cgi page

URL
Name
Description

and if the link is a paid link, It would show more options like

URL
Name
Description
Logo upload
Option1
Option2
option3

Inaddiiton I also would like to build detailed pages for paid links

Can anyone please help? Angelic

Hi,

Mmm.. this could be done, but the additional paramaters are a little hard (well, not hard to do - but not very easy to explain how :()

The detailed page bit would be fine. Just use the Build_Detailed plugin (not free I'm afraid :() - http://www.ultranerds.com/.../Build_Detailed_L77/

Then, for any links that are paid - just set Build_Detailed => Yes for those links, and follow the instructions in the plugin, for how to modify the templates (in short, just wrap <%if Build_Detailed%>...<%endif%> around the link to the detailed page).

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Hi,

Quote:

<%endif%>

I'm not 100% sure, but something like this *should* work:

Code:
<%if ExpiryDate >= 2147483647%>  
 ..show option here 
<%endif%>

Hope that helps.

Cheers
