Simple PHPLD Tweak/Mod to allow sponsors of top hits and Latest links pages

Hi All,

I am not sure if this one has been done before, I did a quick search here and on the PHPLD site and didn't see anything.

Here is a quick and easy mod that will allow you to add a "Sponsor" to your Popular Links (top hits) page and your Latest Links page.

An example can be found here: http://www.linksholder.com/index.php?list=top

I have implemented in 3.1, and will be doing so shortly in 3.0.6 and 3.2. So I am not sure if it works in the other versions yet (although I don't see why it wouldn't). Will post those instructions as soon as I get a chance.

** This is an homage to Mhamdi and his free contributions ***

Enjoy,

kool ... looks nice ... i dont know if i will use it but its a good contribution

 

Thanks Smub.
I am going to be adding this to all of our directories. These pages typically get a lot of page views, (and have good PR value), so I figured folks might be interested in sponsoring these pages.

Seems like a good idea jmort732, i like it.

 

A good one Morty!

 

Looks cool.
I hope someone comes out with a list of all these little (& big) things we can do to our directories cause there seems to be a lot of options and they are all over the place, and I know I would like to add some in the future. Free & pay ones.

As I am writing this, I think someone here started that...now I gotta go find it!

 

which part of that page is the mod? That box that says 'we recommend'?

 

Oops, I should have clarified that.

Yep, DirArchive is the sponsor of that page.

 

ah, you sure use up a lot of page real-estate for the one sponsor. It looks kind of out of place IMO you might want to figure out a way to blend it better with the rest of the page.

 

hmmmm, what browser are you using? It shouldn't take up that much real estate.
(never mind, I am looking at it in IE now, YUCK) Will fix shortly.
Morty

 

yep IE6, it is just sort of sitting in the middle with large amounts of white space on either side.

 

OK, fixed it.
I was missing a TD tag. I will go sit in the corner for being sloppy

Thanks for the heads up, I appreciate it.

Morty

 

I just want to know who added Dmoz to your directory???

 

Great work! I will use it right away.
Thanks for your sharing

 

Thanks for sharing this mod.
If you haven't already, I hope you will also post over on the phpLD mods forum.

 

Done
I wanted to test it in 3.2 before posting there.

Thanks,
Morty

 

Hi All,
FWIW: I included this tweak/mod in our new release of "Simplicity" free phpld template.
You can get more info (including a demo) here: http://www.linksholder.com/downloads/22.html

Enjoy,
Morty

Good work Morty

Thanks Leopard. (Your comment means a lot to me, because it comes from the creator of a totally rockin payment mod )
