Subcategories under categories
Is there way to include a subcategories of the category instead of description of this category?

When setting up categories, e.g.

Private_Homepages

use the following html for description:
<a href="www.yess.de/Private_Homepages/Hobbies/">Hobbies,</a> <a href="http://www.yess.de/Private_Homepages/Reisen/">Reisen,</a> <a href="http://www.yess.de/Private_Homepages/Sonstiges/">Sonstiges </a>

Next set up the appropriate subcategories:
Private_Homepages/Hobbies etc

Helmut

One more problem. I have lots of subcategories and the whole HTML code is more than 500 characters and now I'm getting an error because description could be just 500 characters. Is there any way I can change the maximum length of description?

Megax,

To change the maximum size of description:

1. Open the file links.def
2. Under # Database Definition: LINKS
Change the line:
Description => [5, 'alpha', '40x3', 500, 0, '', ''],
TO:
Description => [5, 'alpha', '40x3', 1000, 0, '', ''],

This should work this is the limiting 500 that you need to change, I just changed it to 1000 this should suffice.

Smile
