Easier Validating
Is there a way to modify the the "add a resource" link on a page so that it automatically adds to the catagory you came from?

Ah...Yea...There is a Mod in the Links Section of the Resource Center that will allow you to do this.

Could you tell me the name? I couldn't find it in the mods section. Thanks

Am I nuts? I thought my stock copy of links already does this, no mod needed...!?

Here is the setting from the links.cfg file:

# Should your add.cgi automatically select what category the user
# is adding his link into?
$db_single_category = 1;

If set to "1" it automatically chooses the category the submitter came from, no?
Puzzled...

Sort of, not really...There is a Mod written by Bobsie called Multiple Categories or something like that, which will print the last category visited as well as restrict categories, so that people HAVE to first visit a category to add a link.

Nice try, VSilly.
