fields not showing up on link pages
When I enter a new link, go to the category page to view, only the description and ratings info shows up.

Example:

http://www.linksgolfnews.com/links/pages/News_Sites/

I can't figure out why the rest of the entry is not showing. Please advise.

It looks like you removed the <a> codes from the link template

I don't see how since I haven't touched that particular template. I did, however, modify the 'link.html' template to have the links open in a new window. Here's the content:



<ul><li>

<%if Details%>
<a href="<%db_cgi_url%>/info.cgi?ID=<%ID%>"><%Title%></a>
<%endif%>

<%ifnot Details%>
<a class="link" href="<%db_cgi_url%>/jump.cgi?ID=<%ID%>" target="newwin"><%Title%></a>
<%endif%>

<%if Description%>
<span class="descript">- <%Description%></span>
<%endif%>

<%if isNew%>
<small><font color=red>new</font></small>
<%endif%>

<%if isPopular%>
<small><sup class="pop">pop</sup></small>
<%endif%>

<br><small class="date">(Added: <%Date%> Hits: <%Hits%> Rating: <%Rating%> Votes: <%Votes%>) <a href="<%db_cgi_url%>/rate.cgi?ID=<%ID%>">Rate It</a></small>

</ul>



I don't see anything missing that would prohibit the links from showing up. Please advise if i'm missing something here.

What template did you think I meant?!

Well something certainly isn't right with your conditional there. Try adding <%Details%> to verify that the field contains something.

I thought you meant the one that's used for the page that I posted the link to. The only two i've modified were 'home.html' and 'link.html' (posted above).



I don't see anything in either one that would cause the links to disappear. Obviously something's goofy.



I've tried to delete the categories to see if it was something that happened during the build. But, when I click on 'delete' in the Categories area of Admin, then 'List All' there's not check boxes next to them to allow for deletion. What do you make of that?



Looks like I may have to delete everything and start from scratch?
