Link Directory (LD) [Deleted]

@au lait

Currently if there are only links in sub categories, the main category does not show any links when selected.
Is it possible to (with on/off ACP option) to show all links in sub categories, when the main category is selected?
The ACP option to turn this on/off because I'm not sure if all your customers like this feature ;)

I am not sure this makes sense, since this will be "double dipping", meaning some of your Link-Entries will then show up in 2 Categories (MainCat + SubCat) and might rather confuse your users.
Better fill up your MainCat with some Link-Entries.


@au lait,

I'm not sure if this is stretching the features, but is it possible to add multiple prefixes?

generally speaking, "Multiple Prefixes" are a nice idea..... but this is currently not a feature in XenForo.com Core-functionality.
Therefore I would suggest to rather not facilitate this.... and rather stick with "XF-Core"-functionality to remain on the "safe side" of the road.

Besides this, the "feature" you are asking for is better being realised by utilizing "Custom Fields".

That is why I asked for an ACP option... For my forum it makes sense. For your forum apparently not.

Asking for features outside the core functionality is the idea of addons. I cannot make a lot of sense of your logic, sorry. Daniel made an excellent addon to facilitate multiple addons which I use. It does not work for this addon (naturally).

ohh, having "Multiple Prefixes" makes a lot of sense... and I even asked for it several times in the "XF Suggestion Forums", some of my "Prefixes"-Suggestions have even been implemented in XenForo Core:

https://xenforo.com/community/threads/multiple-thread-prefixes.84230/#post-884355
https://xenforo.com/community/threads/2-prefixes-for-threads-and-rm.89907/


However, I think that "Custom Fields" and/or "Keyword Tags" are the right approach in order to realise the "feature" you are looking for.

CELL/TABLE PADDING NEEDS FIXED ON LINK DISPLAY

This is standard for list elements in XF core. Your style has a different background, therefore it stands out. If you want adjustment for padding, you need to modify your CSS templates.
