Increase Link Count ID
Ok an odd request this, but how would you go about artificially increasing the link count ID. At the moment I have about 170 links but what if I wanted to start the id number at 1000 onwards?

You could do it with something like this (in MYSQLMonitor);

UPDATE lsql_Links SET ID = ID + 1000
UPDATE lsql_CatLinks SET LinkID = LinkID + 1000

Not guaranteed to work.. so be sure to make a backup before doing anything Wink

There are other tables that depend on the LinkID to track data. Reviews, ratings, etc. All those need the LinkID field updated as well.

Just do it in the template. E.g "10<%grand_total%>"
