    I have a page and there is a huge list of download links there that makes the page very long and it is hard for my visitors to scroll it down up to the bottom.

    I'm looking for a wordpress plugin like the one in facebook where when you click on "older post" the older post will show up without loading the page I think it's an AJAX. I wonder if there's a plugin like this?

    Or if you guys know any other wordpress plugin or technique that can help my problem regarding this page pls. post it here.. I badly need this..


    Thanks! :)

    Do you have the links divided up in some manner? Like within separate link categories? If not can you do that?

    Give me a second. I'm thinking about this.

    edit: I found this which does it for random posts. Trying to think how we can do it with a set of Pages, each one with a link category, and in order:

    Hello! Just to make it clear, I'm not using any post I'm using a page(so basically I'm not using any category.) The links in the list on that page is redirected to another page on my website. I'm also posting this list manually.

    Do you think that will fit my needs? Do you have any example website who is using that so I will know if that's what I'm looking for?

    Thanks!

    You can assign links into link categories.

    http://en.support.wordpress.com/blogroll/link-categories/
    
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Links_Manager#Link_Categories
    Code (markup):
    What I was thinking was creating a Page with the ajaz used in that example, create subPages where each one would be a link category and then having the top Page display each of it's subPages in order.

    The order bit would be the problem.

    edit: You can use query_posts to display Pages, not just Posts.

    I was able to find a plugin that exactly do what you explained above. The problem is, it is only showing list from one category only. I have two different list and what I'm thinking is to upload the same plugin again for the other category but I am geting fatal error when I'm activating the same plugin.

    Is there a way to activate the same plugin again w/out getting an error?

    Thanks!

    You see that's a sidebar widget, right?

    Yup! I know, But I was able to put that in a static page. I am asking if there's a way to duplicate that plugin? what do you think? :confused:
