Hey guys,
I read the posts on adding new fields but im still confused about it... Can you please tell me what and where i have to put in in order to enable a user submit a small thubm along with other info, and that it will show up on the links listing.

you can also contact me by ICQ: 18903943

thanx :)

Hi,
Modify Links.def.
Add This Under This Line.
ReceiveMail => [13, 'alpha', 10, 10, 1, 'Yes', 'No|Yes'],
-----------------------------------------------------------
Thumb => [14, 'alpha', 50, 500, 1, 'http://', '^http']
Change 14 to whatever number comes after the last line.

In Add.html, Add This Following Line.
<input name="Thumb" value="" size="50">

In Add_error.html, Add This Following Line.
<input name="<%Thumb%>" value="" size="50">

In Add_success.html, Add This Following Line.
Thumb: <%Thumb%>
Do The Same Thing In Modify.html

In Modify.html, Add This Following Line.
<input name="<%Thumb%>" value="" size="50">

And In Link.html, Add This Following Line.
<%Thumb%>

Decent instructions...however, you forgot to mention about updating the links.db with another column after the field is added to the links.def file.

thnx man

Anthro what do i have t modify in links.db?

tahnx

Add a delimeter where the new field would be located. If the new field is the last field in the record, then add a delimeter to the end of each line (the default is a pipe, '|').

You can use too upgrade.pl script from Crisco (?) or Bobsie (?) or?

Ciao

oi... *vewwy confused*

hmm...umm... :(
can someone contact me by icq: 18903943 and help me with this? pweese ;)

Search the Links 2.0 Customization Forum for Bobsie upgrade and you will find Threads where a script has been posted. Also, there is an FAQ in the Resource Center (click on Resource at the top of the page) and then go to Links: FAQ and you will see an FAQ that addresses adding fields to your existing database.
