 * Hi Yannick,
 * I have two more Issues please:
    1) The link description is shown initially, but
   then no more. I have “show category description” ticked under category and links.
   2) Can I have more than one Library OR can I have different Drop Doown Lists 
   with different Categories (I Suppose I need to specify the Cat IDs in the shortcodes
   for that)
 * PS: I really like your Plugin!
 * Regards, Oliver
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Flink-description-and-multiple-libraries%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * The way to get link description is not to check Show category Description. It
   is to show the display checkbox next to Link Description in the Advanced tab 
   of library configuration.
 * Yes, it is possible to create multiple libraries. Just go under general options
   and increase the number of libraries. This will add extra interface elements 
   to be able to select the library configuration you are editing.
 * That being said, if you want multiple libraries that look identical but just 
   have different categories, then using the categorylistoverride in the shortcode
   is a better way to work.
 * Let me know if this answers your questions and please consider donating to support
   this plugin’s development.
