Posted: Mon May 07, 2007 4:11 pm Post subject: Published Links Not showing on front page |
|
|
None of my published links show on the front page.
I'm using Joomla ver 1.0.12
LinX ver 1.0b
My site is located on a subdirectory http:wagnertech.net
Everything is working fine, able to confirm Reciprocal Links and e-mails, publishing shows no errors, I can see the link in the backend.
Any Ideas as to what to do/look for?
Thanks in advance |

O.K. it seems to be working now, Except for the LinX Exchange Mod.
Its only shows YOUR link and not the others?
I updated LinX form an older version, AFTER first UNINSTALLING the previous version.
Then removed the old Menu Link and installed a new one that linked to the updated LinX component. The OLD Menu Link stayed even after uninstalling the older version, and seemed to work, I highly suggest removing it and reinstalling it after any update.
Something I noticed and would like to see is a NUMBER before the Categories on the Main page that represents the number of submissions in that particular category.
This way Admins and Visitors can tell at a glance that there are submissions in that particular category.
By the way, Thank You for your time and efforts on a great addition to my site. |

Hi High Octane,
You are welcome. Are you still having any issues with LinX?
Adding the number to the category is a good idea, I will try and add that for the next release.
Best regards,

I have implemented this for the next release.
If you would like to manually apply this hack - do as follows:
Open the file /components/com_linx/linx.php
At about line 106-111 look for
| Code: | //Get the categories
$sql = "SELECT * FROM #__linx_cats
WHERE cat_published = '1'
ORDER BY ordering ASC";
$database->setQuery($sql);
$rows = $database->loadObjectList(); |
After that, add the following few lines
| Code: | //Run through each category and count how many links are in it
foreach ($rows as $key=>$row) {
$sql = "SELECT count(id) FROM #__linx
WHERE cat_id = ".$row->id." AND link_status = 1";
$database->setQuery($sql);
$linkCount = $database->loadResult();
$rows[$key]->link_count = $linkCount;
} |
Then in the file:
/components/com_linx/linx.html.php at line 67. Change:
| Code: | echo "<td width=\"50%\" align=\"left\"><a href=".sefRelToAbs("index.php?option=com_linx&task=list_links&cat_id=$row->id&Itemid=$Itemid") . ">".$row->cat_name . "</a></td>";
|
to

Yes, I'm still having one small issue, but its with the module, it wont show any links besides the default link "yours" just shows:
| Code: | | Error: no links to display |
I also did the .php edits that you have above... and it worked GREAT!
Just what I was looking for! I really don't need the module with this mod.
Thank You very much! |

Are you sure that there ARE any links in the category ID you have specified.
Click on the module in module manager and set what category ID you would like to display link from. _________________ Developer of LinX

My bad, The module only had a 1 "which was what your link was under" I changed it to a 6 to show the link I was referring to.
How would I show links for more than 1 category?
Thanks.
I would like to exchange our link as well. | Code: | | <a href="http://www.wagnertech.net">WagnerTech's Mopar Community</a><br />WagnerTech.net is a full featured Community site that includes, Mopar Forums, Mopar Classifieds, Mopar Auctions, Mopar Dating, Live Chat, Mopar Parts Store,.

One module can only show links from one category, but you can copy the module in module manager and publish it somewhere else and change the cat id. So one module for each category.
If you would like to exchange links with me, then please submit your link through LinX

|

Thanks again,
I have submitted my link in the proper area.
One last thought, In the module, when there is no links yet, the text that shows says:
| Code: | | Error: no links to display |
What would be better is to have it say:
| Code: | | No links to display, click here to Submit Your link now! | "or something along those lines"
The text would be a link to the submission page, or even a button.
anytinng but the words ERROR. LOL
PS Last thought:
I would prefer to be able to show all links in all categories in 1 module, rather than having to create 10+ modules just to show all the links. |

| I see that two links are created in the admin side and they are published. But I do not see anything in the front end. Where or how should I look for the links? |

I tried this patch, however the item count does not show up on my site. Infact empty parenthesis show up beside the category. Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong ?
