the subcats don't show anymore.. something I did? Being able to delete empty ones would be nice ... plus a 'credits' page to acknowledge the authors and versions [/]
in my recent release, I commented out the showing of subcats... Reason for this was because I didn't like how it showed "(0)" links for directories that had several subcats WITH "(20)" or even "(40)" totals inside each one of those sub-cats. Plus in sections where there was 10 sub cats and right next to that section was another that only had 2 subcats, the display looked really bad.
If you have good category names, then for the end-user to find exactly what they want, shouldnt be that dificult.
I was planning on adding an option in the admin page to make display of the subcats on main page an option. But untill then...its easy to restore that feature manualy:
1. just head into the code for the main links page ( links_show_cat.php ) 2. uncomment ALL of that long set lines in the subcategory section. (To uncomment a section, just remove the "//" from the begining of the lines) 3. save and re-upload to your server
..as far as crediting the authors - as long as the original code is included in the archive and all of the author's respects are left intact into the original code and our new code, I think this should be enough - I have still yet to see a fully modified UBB site (including this one) that lists each and every contributor, with exact version notes and links to those authors sites, for all the public to browse through. As long as the copyright is kept inside the code for each programmer to see and respect the bulk of the work, I'm sure thats enough - unless otherwise requested.
At this point, I would much rather begin a new topic to discuss copyright issues - than hijack this thread and the cumulative work by many people that is currently being put into the progress of this masterpiece
