Hi Bobsie,
I got this problem, everytime I click home in my navigation bar it always says Gossamer Threads Demo. How can I change that to my own title?

Hi,
Another question. How can I change the look of my templates and how many links can Links 2.0 can take?

You need to change permission of all the files in the data directory (where you have your count files, .db files, etc.) to 666.

To change the title that is being displayed, change the $site_title variable in links.cfg.

You can change the look of the templates just by editing them the same as any other html file. The only difference is, the templates use <%links_tags%> to represent the variables in the database.

Theoretically, there is no limit to the amount of links that Links can process; however, there is a practical limit based on the server's resources and the speed in which the flat-file databases can be processed.

Hello Bobsie
I went to my links.cfg and I can't find the $Site_title variable that you're telling me. I only found $build_site_title.

$build_site_title is the correct variable. Sorry.

Hi Bobsie,
My $build_site_title looks like this $build_site_title = \"PhilSite";. This is what it looks like because I had a syntax error before so I had to changed it. Do I have to take off my "\" again?

Based on what you are showing for your site title, there is no need for the "\" to be there.
