I want to add a description to Add New Link (Payed Link)

[RaceJunkie]

Please see the attachment. How would a user know what they are buying?

Hello RaceJunkie,

Please follow the directive:

*** Open your suggest-link.tpl ***
*** Find 24 line with such code ***


<label for="p{$plan.id}"><strong>{$lang[$plan.name]} - {$config.currency_symbol}{$plan.cost}</strong></label></p>


*** Replace with ***


<label for="p{$plan.id}"><strong>{$lang[$plan.name]} - {$config.currency_symbol}{$plan.cost} ({$plan.description})</strong></label></p>


*** Save change ***

[RaceJunkie]

I just done that. . Thanks

Plan added. Add the following lines to your language file:
'Featured' => 'Featured',
'Have your link in the featured box' => 'Have your link in the featured box',


What does this mean? I hate to bother you but ths s/w is lacking a decent user manuel unless i am missing it somwhere..

[WTM]

That means exactly what it say...

There is a link in the left column of admin panel: "language editor"
Click on it and you will see your language file.

Add these two lines to the existing file in the section:

/** special area for additional custom strings **/

and click "save changes"

[RaceJunkie]

ok.. Thanks Can you tell me what this actually does?

And how do I edit the Free Link Description?

[WTM]

To change "Free" description find this line in the language file:

'free' => 'Free',

and change it to something you want to say:

'free' => 'Your new description for free link',

and again save changes.

Smarty template system that eSyndicat is using lets you to make lots of customizations without touching (and messing up) source code

RaceJunkie,

*** Open your suggest-link.tpl ***
*** Find 21 line with such code ***


<label for="p0"><strong>{$lang.free}</strong></label></p>


*** And add your description ***


<label for="p0"><strong>{$lang.free} Some description</strong></label></p>


*** Save change ***

[RaceJunkie]

Thanks or the help..

Thank you!!!!

Hi .. anyone...

:zevaiu: :wink:

[Vincent Wright]

Do you want to add link title, url, description, etc?

[cmarket]

Hi,

I would like to add a description.

Just like on the suggest a link page but this description is on the Upgrade your listing page ( so they know what they are buying )


thank you!

[Vincent Wright]

I still don't understand.

Is it link description, plan description, or something else.

Could you tell me the example of what it might read?

[cmarket]

when person is logged in and wants to upgrade their listing. It needs a description of what they are buying see this page - there is no description here. How do you place a description of what they are buying, when they choose to upgrade their listing? just like we did on the add a link page?

On the "add a link" page - the info on this thread -gives instructions how to add a description to the " add a link page" it works fine see example

You may want to look at your site with FireFox. It's a bit messed up.
Here's what I see:

Thanks - I think simon is working on the top area so it will be fixed :huh: :)

Thanks - I think simon is working on the top area so it will be fixed :huh: :)

Here's a quick fix for that.
Open css file and find:
div.header
{
height: 110px;
background-color: #FFF;
}
and change to:
div.header
{
height: 132px;
background-color: #FFF;
}

thank you greg! :dance2:

Ok, concerning descriptions...


It seems that the script does not fetch link information from the database on Upgrade Link page (even though the link id is passed as a parameter).

Having this information you can display link properties like title, url, description, etc.

First of all, you have to fetch this information. Open upgrade-link.php, at the top of the file, after the require_once() directives, add this code:


$id = (int)$_GET['id'];
$link =& $gDirDb->getLinkById($id);
$gDirSmarty->assign_by_ref('link', $link);


Now the link fields are available in the template file and you can use it the way you need.

E.g. I added this immediately after the <h1> title:


<div class="box-content">
You are going to upgrade this link:<br/>
<a href="{$link.url}">{$link.title}</a>
</div>


You can play with the code and the $link variable to adjust the look and feel.

If you have questions feel free to ask.
