I just got pld installed today, i'm planning on using it more for a personal link management for a blog. It looks great so far!

I have some mod requests that I doubt I would be able to create on my own:

-I would really like a 'quickmarks' link to quickly add links into PLD from within Firefox, much like Brim and Wordpress have.

-I would like some way to import lists of links, such as IE/Firefox files or 'OPML' format links (I am not sure what this is, it is something that Wordpress uses)

-It would be GREAT to be able to submit links under multiple categories. For instance, a site with tutorials on woodworking could go under 'Tutorials' and 'Woodworking' categories.

-I would also really like a 'more detail' field for submitting a link, and a button next to links when browsing that shows this 'more detail' information.

-Finally, Related to that, is some option of having multiple links PER link, for instance, in linking to a large website, I could show the main website URL, as well as information about areas of interest on the website.


Thanks so much for this excellent software!

Hi ryan,

The following feature is already in place:
Content visible to registered users only.

As for the other features, they are custom Mods for your site and might not be integrated into our oficial releases. Would you be willing to make a donation to PHPLD to get them done?

Thank you.

Regards,
York Kie

Good to hear about the multiple categories feature!

Content visible to registered users only.

Hmm..Now that's a good business model! Work on features people PAY you to work on...I like it.

Well, I'm a little poor, but:
1. Seeing as this is great software anyway,
and
2. Seeing as I'd REALLY like some of those features,

if I could get a good idea of what to expect in terms of getting one of those features working (even as a mod) and/or LOTS of help in doing one myself, I'd definitely be willing to throw a bit of $ at you guys. No more than I can afford, mind you.

feel free to send me a private message or email re. this!
( I did set my email up in this forum, didn't I? )
