Implemented Addons page should have links to the addons

EDIT: Seems this is already available.

As the title states, IMO it would be a good idea.

this can be set by each developer himself
we use the support link for this

or do you mean something else?

 

[Ozzy47]

Where does the link direct to when you click on it?

Well I'll be darned, the ones I have installed must not be set up.

The developer can add arbitrary URLs to the Addon entry in the control panel via the addons.json file.

Here is a snipped of the addon.json file for my KnownBots addon:

    "dev_url": "https://bitbucket.org/hampel/",
    "faq_url": "https://xenforo.com/community/resources/known-bots.6489/field?field=faq",
    "support_url": "https://bitbucket.org/hampel/knownbots-xenforo/issues",
    "extra_urls": {
        "Git Repository": "https://bitbucket.org/hampel/knownbots-xenforo",
        "Twitter": "https://twitter.com/SimonHampel"
    },

The dev_url, faq_url and support_url are pre-defined, while the extra_urls are all arbitrary and developer defined.
