   hello, the plugin is great, but it seems to only sort by link id. it would be very helpful to be able to sort alphabetically.

   The sort order is random because it was the original intent of the plugin to serve up a random subset of links from a blogroll, but I have been considering adding sort order to a future release.

   Trying to sort my blogroll list. The dropdown menu allows sorting by Link ID and Rating (among others) but I don't see any way to assign a Link ID or to rate the links in my list. What am I missing?

   This is GREAT!...However, I would still like to have my links listed under their appropriate category. Could you make this happen?
   Thanks!

   @donwpeterson, the ratings can be set in your blogroll.

   @arudd: I was thinking about adding something like that in...

   Hello,

   This is a great plugin. Any chance that you will create a dynamic link loader instead of having to refresh it?

   Cheers!

   Great plugin, but I agree with arudd that it would be nice to be able to sort the links by category. I suppose one quick solution would be to have multiple widgets, each giving links from a single category, just like you can have multiple text widgets. Any way to enable that?

   Hah! I just realized you can do it directly in your theme, because wp_list_bookmarks() allows you to order randomly and limit the number of links shown. So...

   <?php wp_list_bookmarks('categorize=1&title_before=<h3>&title_after=</h3>&orderby=rand&limit=4'); ?>

   Of course, a plugin would be nicer. :-)

   Actually, I'm having a problem with the randomizer listing links twice... Is this because some links are in two categories, or just a result of the randomization?

   Thanks! Other than that I'm loving this plugin. :)
