The category IDs are numeric IDs. You can find them by going to the page to see and edit link categories, then placing your mouse over a category and seeing its numeric ID in the link that is associated with that name.

If you want all of your link pages to have the same layout, create a single setting set, then specify the category to be displayed when you add the short code to each page. For example: [link-library categorylistoverride=”28″]
If the different pages have different styles for different categories, then you should create distinct setting sets for each page and set the categories to be displayed in the “Categories to be Displayed” field in the admin panel.

When using this option, the short code [link-library-addlinkcustommsg] should be placed on the destination page.

To override the settings specified inside of the plugin settings page, the two commands can be called with options. Here is the syntax to call these options:

[link-library-cats categorylistoverride=”28″]

Overrides the list of categories to be displayed in the category list

[link-library-cats excludecategoryoverride=”28″]

Overrides the list of categories to be excluded in the category list

[link-library categorylistoverride=”28″]

Overrides the list of categories to be displayed in the link list

[link-library excludecategoryoverride=”28″]

Overrides the list of categories to be excluded in the link list

[link-library notesoverride=0]

Set to 0 or 1 to display or not display link notes

[link-library descoverride=0]

Set to 0 or 1 to display or not display link descriptions

[link-library rssoverride=0]

Set to 0 or 1 to display or not display rss information

[link-library tableoverride=0]

Set to 0 or 1 to display links in an unordered list or a table.

For legacy users of Link Library (pre-1.0), it is still possible to call the back-end functions of the plugin from PHP code to display the contents of your library directly from a page template.

The main differences are that the function names have been changed to reflect the plugin name. However, the parameters are compatible with the previous function, with a few additions having been made. Also, it is important to note that the function does not output the Link Library content by themselves as they did. You now need to print the return value of these functions, which can be simply done with the echo command. Finally, it is possible to call these PHP functions with a single argument (‘AdminSettings1’, ‘AdminSettings2’, ‘AdminSettings3’, ‘AdminSettings4’ or ‘AdminSettings5’) so that the settings defined in the Admin section are used.

Here would be the installation procedure:

1. Download the plugin
2. Upload link-library.php to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
3. Activate the plugin in the WordPress Admin

4. Use the following functions in a new template and select this template for your page that should display your Link Library.

   <?php echo $my_link_library_plugin->LinkLibraryCategories(‘name’, 1, 100, 3, 1, 0, ”, ”, ”, false, ”, ”); ?>
   <br />
   <?php echo $my_link_library_plugin->LinkLibrary(‘name’, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, ”, 0, 0, 1, 1, ‘<td>’, ‘</td>’, 1, ”, ‘<tr>’, ‘</tr>’, ‘<td>’, ‘</td>’, 1, ‘<td>’, ‘</td>’, 1, “Application”, “Description”, “Similar to”, 1, ”, ”, ”, false, ‘linklistcatname’, false, 0, null, null, null, false, false, false, false, ”, ”); ?>
