Im using the "import flat file" feature, and I was wondering if there is a way that I can import a list of tags for each link?

Not currently, though I could add it in as a custom project for $25.

Payment options: scripts.webmastersite.net/w...section=payamount&price=25

I can get it into the next release by the end of the week.

A comma-separated list of tags would be the most obvious format, but that'd be a problem for someone doing a CSV import, since commas separate fields there. I guess I'll default to a pipe (|) and add a tweak to allow changing it.

Also, is there anyway to get the sort options to work for a toplist?

Upload the attached file to /admin/, and use | as your separator between tags (or change the separator with $tagsplitchar in tweaks.php).

Please describe. Are you talking about overriding the normal order with a user-selected sort?

Take the toplist in your main index template for example:
<form action="index.php" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
<div class="box">
<div class="boxtitle" onclick="minmax('topbox')"><img src="{IMAGESURL}/icon_show.gif" alt="show" /> Top {TOPLISTTOTAL1} Links</div>
<div class="boxbody" id="topbox">
Show
<select name="number[1]">
<option value="5">5</option>
<option value="10">10</option>
<option value="15">15</option>
</select>
<select name="thefield[1]">
<option value="time">newest</option>
<option value="rating">top rated</option>
<option value="hits">most visited</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Go" class="button" />
<br />
<!-- BEGIN TOPLIST 1 -->
<CONFIG>links,time,5,descending</CONFIG>
{NUMBER}. <a href="{TRACKLINKURL}" class="newlinks" {EXTERNALLINKS}>{LINKTITLE}</a> {LINKADMIN}
<br />
<!-- END TOPLIST 1 -->
</div>
</div>
</form>


To add an alphabetical option, add
<option value="title">alphabetically</option>
in the number[1] selector. To do allow ascending/descending selection add
<select name="order[1]">
<option value="asc">ascending</option>
<option value="desc">descending</option>
</select>
