Hi

Hows it going?

I am just about to start a local directory of all the local towns in the area (around 70). My aim was to have an opening page which lists all the towns - and then when you click on one - it takes you to a page with some information about the town (html) and underneath a business link directory with the possibility of businesses submitting entries without a website.

OK - so I started looking at php link directory and thought this would do the trick OK - especially when I found this about adding content in the knowledge base (although the file could be quite big with 70 entries):

http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/kb/Making_Template_Changes_to_the_Front_Page_Only.htm l (http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/forum/../kb/Making_Template_Changes_to_the_Front_Page_Only.htm l)

Then I found this thread about a possible integration of Article Script and php links directory - which I think when completed sounds ideal:

http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2172&highlight=Article+Script

After that I found http://www.regionaldirectory.org/ which looks like it is perfect for the local directory (but can't php link directory be set up like this)

So as you can see - I've gone and confused myself, not knowing in which direction to go... Can any one with experience of any of the above give me push in the right direction please :)

You might want to start with the free version of phpLD (on the front page of this site on the left) and give it a test drive. That might make your thinking clearer. I can also provide you with admin access to one or more of the products.

Thanks David - I have just seen that and downloaded it.

I'll test it next week as I have family over this weekend.

Thanks for the quick reply BTW :)
