CHANGELOG:

Version 1.1 added list ordering options.
Version 1.2: option to show created date below link.
Version 1.3: customizeable instant mouseover popup window to display author, date, intro text etc... for each link! Backwards compatible with earlier versions.
Version 1.4: added support for module class suffix and ordering by hits
Version 1.5: fixed js bug with certain characters in tooltip text.

If this module helps you out, please give a rating or a review. Thanks!

One Additional feature for Content Links List by MBorges, June 3, 2008

Hello, this is a great module and to be perfect i would only ask for one aditional feature:
- Option not to show frontpage published items.

With this it would be perfect.

Thanks for this great module.

Wonderful! by Mishka3366, May 12, 2008

Great tool! Great job! Just what I needed!

only 5 minutes to make it happen ! by myfia, April 18, 2008

The idea is so great. It takes 5 minutes to install, setup and get the extension work. Good Job.
It saves my time a lot. Set list link manually ...bye

The DHTML fx make it cool, and eye catching.

Works like a charm ..... by Mindvacant, April 1, 2008

Thanks for a great module. Does just what I needed.

Thanks again.

almost perfect menu and link automation by rexkramer, March 21, 2008

Is it a bird, a menu, a linklist, latest news... nope, its everything ;-) Absolutely brilliant! 2 Thumbs up.

Cool features:
- copy module, multiple instances on different menu items
- multiple sort ordering
- different list styles
- created date
- intro text with word limit

My personal wishlist:
- modified date
- section display with CAT (add Category Names automaticly)
- section display, parameter to exclude CAT IDs
- fancy mootools tooltip (overlib is great but looks a little oldfashioned ;-) )

Thanx again for your efforts,
TIA!!!

Superb Module by Christabelle67, February 17, 2008

This is a superb, easy too install and configure module - very user friendly even for the novice! I especially appreciate the 'tooltips' makes for a neat little extra addition for users to hover over a link and get a brief intro to what the link contains - brilliant! Well done!
Warm Regards
Christel

Perfect by ranieri71, January 17, 2008

Works exactly as described. Very easy and useful tool.

Excellent!! by LeoJoomla, November 14, 2007

Thank you so much
your mod save mylife
I'm try with any MODs /Component but still not work
but this module can solve all my problem

with this Content Links Mod, I can create list of all any contents from section/category with any position to my template (Use with Css and copy new mod)

and most of all it's FREE!

Simple and Effective by colin, August 10, 2007

Content Links List works. It is easy to install and operates as it says. an excellent and effective piece of work that is thoughly useful. Being able to organise an entire set alphabetically and automatically was what I was looking for. Adding a random sort would no doubt please some but for me alpha was what I needed. It is very simple to customise. Looking inside the module shows the php code is well structured - always a good sign that the author cares.

Excellent "Latest News" module by rleathers, July 23, 2007

Works exactly as expected. Easy to setup and easy to customize.

A must have for everyone of us by johny, July 17, 2007

always cannot find a simple way to connect a section of my contents and link them to the front. Now we have content links list which solve the problems that everyone has. It can replaces the modules such as latest news, popular.. in a simple way by just copy the module at the back end and replace the modules that you don't want. Thanks a million and it should be the core module for joomla ! It support other languages too ! All I need is to fill the blanks at the back end with my language preference. Everything is done in 5 min. Bravo !

Excellent Module by Icidis, June 19, 2007

I would definitely recommend this module to anyone who has a website. this module is GREAT!!!

Its cool !!! by pianopiko, June 7, 2007

I love this DHTML Popup. :-)

This is one of those extensions that makes you wonder why it was never included in the core files. List links however your heart desires, how simple could that be? Very versatile to display links from different categories or sections. Duplicate the module and display different links in different areas.

Simple and so needed by khamel, May 20, 2007

As I learn more and more about Joomla (and I'm amazed I got this far) I was shocked that Joomla doesn't come with something like this stock. So I went looking for something that would let me just put together a simple list of articles from a specific catagory and here it is.

Joomla's included modules all have some angle to them (won't display articles on front page, displays randomly, etc). This just gives me a simple list which I can order by date, ID, Order, etc.
