<IF {LINKRELATED}> <div class="details"><b>Related Links:</b> <!-- BEGIN RELATED --> <a href="{TRACKLINKURL}">{LINKTITLE}</a>, <!-- END RELATED --> </div> </IF>
That's what I have as the standard on the comments.php page. It is not pulling up the related link's information though. It is pulling up the actual link's information that I am viewing.
I dunno if this has anything to do with it, but I read that for this to work, ya need the latest version of MySQL installed, of which I mysql do not have it, and don't feel like tackling an upgrade at the moment. I do look forward to taking advantage of this feature sometime in the very near future. It seems like WSN takes advantage of new functionality only found in the latest MySQL package.
No, only similar links requires MySQL 4 -- which by the way was released more than three years ago, it's not the lastest MySQL version, which would be 4.1.x for stable or MySQL 5 for development. Related links do not require anything except specifing the related ids on edit.
Did a quick test, associated link #3 with link #30, no problems. Not sure what you could be doing, have you compared with the default template?
On an unrelated note, it always kind of annoys me when people use WSN Links for a manual or knowledge base. A number of people seem to, but it makes me feel silly developing WSN Knowledge Base. But I shouldn't complain, I make more money this way.
1. My first intentions were to find a good directory script for a directory site I am building. The fact that I am also using this script for our online manuals, was more like a sudden decision (plus a good practice on the script for me).
2. Little hint on site design: Place a bold button or something at the top of these pages. A new button on the very top navigation, that says: "Other Products" or something to that affect would have directed me to your KnowledgeBase script. Believe it or not, until now, I didn't even know it existed. And the only reason why, is because there is no link to it from these WSNLINKS pages.
Thanks
David
PS: if I had a client who is need of large customizations and setup on your WSNLINKS for their site, where (if at all) would I post such a 'job' opportunity?

Hey Paul,
<IF {LINKRELATED}>
<div class="details"><b>Related Links:</b>
<!-- BEGIN RELATED --> <a href="{TRACKLINKURL}">{LINKTITLE}</a>, <!-- END RELATED -->
</div>
</IF>

Any thoughts? Here is an example: http://www.themlmsoftware.com/docs/comments.php?id=227

I'll have to check that template then.
Regarding the unrelated.

Such posts should probably go under hacks and template changes, but could go on the main forum too.
