VS Link Manager

Over

Met deze lichtgewicht plugin kun je een overzicht tonen met links van de Link Manager.

The Link Manager is part of WordPress but disabled by default. This plugin will activate it again.

Main features of the plugin:

  • Free and lightweight
  • Support for Block Editor and Classic Editor
  • Display your link list with block, shortcode or widget
  • Customize your link list with attributes
  • Documentation at WP plugin page
  • Active support from developer at WP forum

With this plugin you can also create a blogroll or link portal in the same way as a link list.

Hoe te gebruiken

After installation go to menu item “Links” and create some categories and links. Links must be assigned to a category.

Go to the editor and add the VS Link Manager block or the shortcode [links] to a page. This will display your link list.

Or go to Appearance > Widgets and use the VS Link Manager widget.

Standaard instellingen categorieën:

  • 4 columns when using block or shortode
  • 1 column when using widget
  • 2 columns in small screens
  • Rangschikken op naam
  • Oplopende volgorde (A-Z)
  • Lege categorieën zijn verborgen

Standaardinstellingen links:

  • Rangschikken op naam
  • Oplopende volgorde (A-Z)
  • Alle links worden getoond

Customize your link list with attributes.

Attributes

You can customize your link list by adding attributes to the block, shortcode or widget.

  • Add custom CSS class to link list: class="your-class-name"
  • Wijzig het aantal kolommen: columns="3"
  • Disable the columns: columns="0"
  • Voeg bepaalde categorieën toe: include="1,3,5"
  • Sluit bepaalde categorieën uit: exclude="8,10,12"
  • Toon ook lege categorieën: hide_empty="0"
  • Toon categorie beschrijving: category_description="true"
  • Change the number of links per category: links_per_category="5"
  • Reverse the order of links: order="DESC"
  • Toon links op ID: orderby="ID"
  • Toon links in willekeurige volgorde: orderby="rand"
  • Verberg link titel: hide_link_title="false"
  • Verberg link beschrijving: hide_link_description="false"
  • Change feed label: feed_label="your label"
  • Change the “no categories are found” text: no_categories_text="your text"

Voorbeeld: [links include="1,3,5" category_description="true" links_per_category="5"]

When using the block or the widget, don’t add the main shortcode tag or the brackets.

Example: include="1,3,5" category_description="true" links_per_category="5"

With the columns attribute you can set the number of columns between 1 and 4.

In small screens max 2 colums.

You can disable the columns in favour of your own styling.

The columns attribute will be ignored when using the block or widget. Because you can set the columns via the block or widget settings.

With the “hide link title” attribute you can hide the link title if the link has an image assigned to it. This way you can display the link image only, instead of both.

Widget

This plugin activates the Links widget again. Because this widget is part of WordPress, plugin has no control over it.

You can use the VS Link Manager widget instead.
