描述
For people who maintain their Web site or blog using the WordPress blog content management system,
blogroll-links is an open source WordPress plugin that uses WordPress’ built-in Blogroll feature and presents links to friends’ home pages and own pages on social networking sites using XFN in the links.
Features of this plugin
- It can show the links by category in blog posts and WordPress Pages.
- It uses WordPress’ standard built-in Blogroll links database. There is no hassle of another list of links to maintain.
- It can be used to show only the links assigned to a particular category, by stating the category slug as defined in that category’s setting in WordPress.
- It honors the Show/Hidden setting as defined for each link in WordPress.
- It displays the link in the same window or new window, as specified for each link in WordPress.
