I hope I understood your question correctly. If you just imported the file, it means WordPress has added your Blogroll links to its database and you can edit them within your Admin area now. It isn’t linked to Blogroll in any way, though. You have to add links to WordPress if you want them to show up in your blog.
As far as I know, Blogroll also offers the option to remotely host your links: you just have to insert a line of code into your blog and the linklist will be updated through Blogroll.
That’s what I did was import my blogroll using OPML code, but it isn’t updating as I thought it should. Bsically, what I had to do was import it again to get the changes to appear. I just thought it updated itself.
did you add the following line
include_once(ABSPATH.WPINC.'/links-update-xml.php');
?>
after
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
at the top of your template?
I only did what it told me to do and I don’t recall it telling me to paste code or anything? Where did you find that code?
i forget where, but it’s somewhere. i’ve been using wp for 8 months and after every upgrade or template change i just copied over that line from my old template to my new one.
Okay, I’ll go back and check out what I’m doing wrong. Thanks for helping.
i now remember where that line came from. that line used to be commented out in the template by default with the inline instructions to uncomment it if you wanted your links to show updates. only in the past few months has the line disappeared from the template.
