How do I: Add Keywords?
I’m sure this was probably asked and answered but I can’t find it.

I have a links SQL install that I am using for a links directory.

How do I add a keyword field that will be hidden from the links output but used when a search is done?
To increase accuracy and improve search results I need to add this field.

Add a new column to the Links table called Keywords. More information on how to do this can be found here:

You will need to add a value to the search weight field so that this new column is included in searches. You will also need to add support for this new column to your add and modify templates if you want users to be able to add and modify their own keywords when submitting links.
