isPopular confusion
I am wondering what the value, cutoff or event which causes LSQL to make a link popular? (sets isPopular to Yes). And when does it do this (during a build or a re-index).... just a bit confused Crazy

Is this value editable.... I keep confusing it with build_pop_cutoff but I realise this is not the same value or setting.

I suppose isPopular depends on number clicks to a link.
There is a script, on which a click can be passed through (click.cgi or something).
If this value (click number) is stored in the DB, then isPopular can be marked using the build_pop_cutoff percent number.
I don't use it, just suppose, but this should be close to the solution integrated into Links SQL.

That's all. I hope you see now.
