Hi,

I would like to build a review/ratings site which will have on the homepage:

1) A list of categories on the right hand sidebar
2) A block which contains a list of the latest links (sites)
3) A block which contains featured links
4) A block which contains the most popular links (measured by viewer clicks
5) A tag cloud

Is it possible to configure WSN Links to do this? I looked through the manual and showcase sites,but couldn't find any information or examples. I would appreciate any info that you can provide. Thank you.

Rich

1) This is sitemap.
2) This is a toplist.
3) A link type named 'featured' and another toplist, with filtering condition type='featured'.
4) Another toplist.
5) There by default as you can see in the demo.

Thank you for your reply. I would like to list these blocks in primary content section. Is it possible to see example code that would display three toplist boxes (e.g. Top Rated, Most Popular, Featured) on the the home page. Something like was done here, but on the home page? I can't seem to understand this from the documentation. Thanks.

Simply use the toplist generator or copy what's already in the templates. Three toplists in boxes: 

<div class="box">
<div class="boxtitle" onclick="minmax('topbox')"><img src="{IMAGESURL}/icon_show.gif" alt="show" /> Latest Links</div>
<div class="boxbody" id="topbox">
<!-- BEGIN TOPLIST 1 -->
<CONFIG>links,id,5,descending</CONFIG>
{NUMBER}. <a href="{TRACKLINKURL}" class="newlinks" {EXTERNALLINKS}>{LINKTITLE}</a>  {LINKADMIN} 
<br />
<!-- END TOPLIST 1 -->
</form>
</div>
</div>

<div class="box">
<div class="boxtitle" onclick="minmax('topbox')"><img src="{IMAGESURL}/icon_show.gif" alt="show" /> Featured Links</div>
<div class="boxbody" id="topbox">
<!-- BEGIN TOPLIST 2 -->
<CONFIG>links,id,5,descending,type='featured'</CONFIG>
{NUMBER}. <a href="{TRACKLINKURL}" class="newlinks" {EXTERNALLINKS}>{LINKTITLE}</a>  {LINKADMIN} 
<br />
<!-- END TOPLIST 2 -->
</form>
</div>
</div>

<div class="box">
<div class="boxtitle" onclick="minmax('topbox')"><img src="{IMAGESURL}/icon_show.gif" alt="show" /> Popular Links</div>
<div class="boxbody" id="topbox">
<!-- BEGIN TOPLIST 3 -->
<CONFIG>links,hits,5,descending</CONFIG>
{NUMBER}. <a href="{TRACKLINKURL}" class="newlinks" {EXTERNALLINKS}>{LINKTITLE}</a>  {LINKADMIN} 
<br />
<!-- END TOPLIST 3 -->
</form>
</div>
</div>
