Displays blogroll links on a Page or Post. Insert [mylinks] to a Page or Post and it will display all your blogroll links there- with live snapshots of every page. Very nice too look!

Only 1-2 Minutes and the thumbnails snapshots are generated. This takes some time, because the server has to deliver many thumbnails at one time. Once cached (1-2minutes), the thumbnails will appear.

TODO:

1. [new 14.01.2009] Sorting of the links
2. [new 02.09.2009] Select template with shortcut [mylinks=Category,templatename]

INSTALLATION:

1. Upload the mylinks plugin directory, along with its contents, to your worpress plugins directory: /wp-content/plugins/.
2. Activate the plugin and follow the instructions in the description.
3. Example: Use [mylinks] in your page or post to display all your links
4. Example: Use [mylinks=categoryname] to display just the links of the category categoryname in your page or post
5. Example: Use [thumb]http://www.your-homepage.com[/thumb] to display a thumbnail of the website http://www.your-homepage.com in your page or post
6. Thats it :) You just have to update your wordpress links.

CHANGE LAYOUT:

Just change the templates in the templates subdirectory of the mylinks-plugin: all_links.html is the template for displaying all links and one_category.html is the template for displaying just one category. I think its easy to understand how it works :)

DONE:

1. 27.01.2009: New software for generating snapshots
2. 27.01.2009: Now also thumbnails of websites with flash elements supported (there were some problems before)
3. 27.01.2009: Better thumbnail quality
4. 09.02.2009: Display links only from special category
5. 09.02.2009: Display only one thumbnail/website
6. 09.02.2009: Use templates, so everbody can easily change the html code (valid html, xhtml...) (2.0)
7. 05.03.2008: Fixed type=text/javascript in thumbnail (2.1)
8. 06.03.2008: Fixed type=text/javascript in category overview (2.2)
