I've just completed the email notification - admin receives an email when a link has been submitted. The admin can optionally turn this off if they so desire.
If the admin submits a link, it is automatically approved and entered into the database without further action.
Users have been implemented, configurable as well. You can now dis-allow nonmembers the ability to submit links. Each link will have a link to the submitters profile. If you allow anonymous link submits, then the script will determine wether they are a member or not and provide either a link to their profile or a mailto link to email the nonmember.
Anyway, that's where I am at. All of the above have been tested and proved flawless, but you can help me test it by going to the test site and trying it out, logged out and logged in. Thanks.
The next steps will be to:
add Popular Links, or Hot Links if you want to call them that (admin can determine how many hits a link must have before being considered popular)
Ratings will be next. I figure a drop down box next to the link (convenient), or should it be a different page?
These shouldn't be too difficult, I think, but I won't give a release date until I get them coded.
Again, suggestions, or have I forgotten anything, Please let me know.
