Two Issues:
(Issue 1)
I now would like to create link submitter's passwords.
I see that there are mods available, but wish to verify how they would work with my database.
Most of my links originated from an original list which was imported into a different program which included more info fields such as company address and phone, etc. I converted this database to conform to links2 fields, however, many entries did not include a" Contact Name" or "Contact Email"
IE: blank fields (| |).
I discovered this as I attempted to move them into more defined sub categories, and have needed to locate emails and contact names for each of the 700+ entries. (I just used "Contact" for Contact Name if I could not locate one on the linked site.
Now here's the issue.
If I install a password field as defined in "Password Modify" mod from Resources : Links : Modifications,
What happens if someone (say a linked website owner)wishes to modify a link I put in and was obviously not the originator of the link!
I have integrated the email info modification, but they may not know which of the many email's they use that I have integrated!
One other question: Does this modification allow the user to retrieve their password if the loose or forget it?
(ISSUE Two):
I have been trying to make the category descriptions that appear on the home page smaller (so I can have them appear on a single line) without affecting the links descriptions.
I admit my knowledge of Cascading Style Sheets is limited, but, I tried creating a style for the category description IE:
/* The category description */
span.catdescript {font-size: xx-small; color: #FFFFFF; background: #3A7060; font-family: "verdana", "arial", "geneva", sans-serif;}
But, cannot figure out how to impliment it.
In the home.html page there is simply a call for <%category%> with no if/then vars or anything related to the description.
Where is the home page category section built? Can I make the mod there? or elsewhere?
