Editing the Pagerank

[mikedippel]

I was thinking that since Google doesn't allow us to gather the pagerank information easily, would it be possible to just add a field to the 'Edit Link' function where we can manually type in the pagerank number?

We could gather that information while in the 'Approve Links' area and use the 'edit' function to add it immediately.

Currently, I am logging in to phpMyadmin to edit each listing, and that takes quite a while to accomplish.

Good idea...I'll implement this soon.

Any news on this topic ?... i am interested in something like this.

Just wondering if any work is being done to update the regional script. I own 2 licenses of the link script and one of the regional. I don't see any progress yet on allowing page rank updates via the admin panel. Is there a way to apply the updates on the link directory to this regional sofware?

The regional directory software has a lot of differences. It is possible, but we just have to find the time to do it. I actually assigned 2 posts (in this forum) to be checked for solutions tomorrow. I may at least have that.

PageRank should be able to be updated using the PageRank Updater tool.
It still would be good to be able to edit the pagerank in phpLD and Regional.

Besides the ability to edit PageRank from the admin panel, I would also like to see the list of countries, states, cities added to the admin panel where you can add a link and send the email. Go to Emailer -> Send Email and Add Link, and no cities are listed. Currently, it just has the functionality of the normal directory software to add a listing, but without the regional script extras.

This is being done today (updating pagerank from admin).
Mike, if you want to send me a PM tomorrow, I will send you the changed files.
