With my module (but if you're on JOOMLA 1.0 its better to use the mambot, for extenden flexibility) you can still use the weblinks component to manage you weblinks. But the module shows ALL weblinks in one page in columns with the description of the weblink as title, if no description is filled in it shows the weblink name
(This new version now includes sorting by ordering for the links and sorting on Category-id and ordering for the caregories.
...A Question from Julian Goodbehere)
You can specify the following:
* Specify welcome text
* Show new links (with how many days)
* Specify number of rows
* Show hits
* Open ALL links in new window
* length of the title
* Cut of Length
Have fun with this module
Changelog:
1.1 * Specify Sort Order of both categories and weblinks
1.2 * added CSS Prefix

==========================================================================
on the support site you can also find a mambot (Joomla 1.0) that can display your weblinks like the module does, but also just only one of your catagories
