Replace bullet with image and hit counter

    Is there a way to have the bullet replaced by the image defined for each link? I am using website thumbnails and the image shows above the link name and description. This takes up a lot of extra space on the web page, and some space could be saved by having the image/thumbnail appear to the left of the link name and description, in place of the bullet instead.

    Secondly, is there a way, or possibly for a future release, to show how many hits each link has been clicked? This is essential for a links page, and I am surprised it is not included, unless I am overlooking it. I highly recommend this as a feature request for a future release, but meanwhile do you recommend a method to show how many hits each link has been clicked, possibly underneath the link description?

    Then aside from those 2 questions, I wanted to thank you for making this plugin and sharing it with the WP community. I have been trying to find something like this for quite sometime, and this is the closest plugin that I could find that isn’t 2years out of date and abandoned or doesn’t include several other features that I will never use. If I could just figure out the 2 issues above, it would be perfect.

    Hello,

    To adjust the layout you could add this to your active theme’s style.css file

    .simple-links-item{
    list-style: none;
    width: 100%;
    clear: both;

}

.simple-links-item img {
    width: 25px;
    height: auto;
    float: left;
}

    As far as a hit counter, this is probably not something used widely enough to be added to core plugin. If we did build the featured it would most likely be an built as an add-on. I will add to to the board and see what our team thinks about it.

    Cheers.
