How exactly does link determine which sites to insert into what's cool section. I want to do this manually. There is a configuration option to setup each site for "Is popular" but every time I set that to yes and rebuild the pages it automatically resets to No. Thanks

It is configured by a percentage of votes with the percentages of total Rating for that particular link.
And the independent variable is the $db_popular_cutoff variable located in the links.cfg file.

how do you manually configure it.Welp, you would have to hack the sub build_update_newpop routine in the nph-build.cgi script.
Before providing codes or suggestions...I have one question...Do you want the Admin to only be able to rate links as "popular"? If you want both the users and admin to rate links as "popular", this would be very complicated to do.
Also, there is a Modification in the Resource Center called something like Recip Mod, that denotes sites that provide links back to your site and sorts them at the top of your links listing in the category pages. Some LINK users have modified the recipicrol Mod to create a separate page of sites that link back to their sites.
