Just curious. We are planning to upgrade to Links SQL, but have a couple of questions before making the leap.

First, will Links SQL automatically keep all our current links intact, our category and our layout formats?

Second, this is more of a feature request more than anything, will Links SQL eventually have a means by which to allow users to enter thier URL and have thier page spidered according to meta tags information? By forcing users to go the category itself that best suits their content, this would auto insert the corresponding category in the submission. The submit form should also allow for the owners email address.

Thanks

Hi,

Links SQL comes with installation or upgrade. You can keep all your old links, categories and even email database.

If you are using templates, they can be used as well (with one or two minor modifications). If you are using site_html.pl, you will need to switch over to templates.

As for the new feature, it is something we would like to do, but may be awhile away.

Cheers,

Alex

Oh, and also, an Import.pl script is included for easy importing from Links 2.0 at a later date.
