   As you may have realized your weblog can handle external categorized links (See link "Links" in your admin area if you don't know what I mean). The Click-Counter plugin written by Ozh (Link to the plugin's page) does only count clicks in comments or posts. Now I have patched wp-includes/links.php and the plugin file wp-ozh_clickcounter.php to get also these nice click counters on my links.

   You can download my package from my weblog:
   http://blog.mxchange.org/links-patch.zip

   You need WordPress 2.0.4 for this patch.

   This patch adds a filter called "wp_links" to filter these external links. So I hope the WP team will apply my patch on their next version to make such click counters or "link modifier plugins" working. :-)

   You may want checkout my weblog to see a demo of this patch.

   Cheers,
   Quix0r

   I have updated my patch. It tracks now the commentator's website which s/he can enter in the form. My patched version of the click counter encodes the URL with Base-64 encoding to avoid some trouble with "Cracker Tracker" scripts (see: Poland and Perl are ending with .pl). go.php is decoding it again before it counts the click. :-)

   Okay, you will find these external on my blog in normal view. I have deactivated the plugin because it kills the "interconnectivity" of blogs and that is what I don't want. :(

   You may want to use the "JS-mode" (see settings area) to get Google and Technorati index and follow your linked pages.
