Context Links 1.05
A tool to manually (!) set and display links to related content. No keywords or content analysis! You are in control! On the back end, use component menu to enter links to desired articles or to any other resources and select menu items, for which you want to display this link. Use module to display the set of links corresponding to each content item on the front end. To display multiple sets of links in different modules (e. g., separate See Also and More Actions lists), set the Group property for each link and for the corresponding module. Note! mod_dwcontextlinks module requires com_dwcontextlinks component to work. Please install separately. FIXED in version 1.05: Compatibility issue which caused an "unexpected $end" error on some PHP configurations. FIXED in version 1.04: Compatibility issue with PHP 4. FIXED in version 1.03: Errors in installation/uninstallation package. NEW in version 1.02: Now you can easily select menu items from list instead of entering Itemids manually.

Worth recommending by Victor von Belau, April 14, 2008

This is excellent component. You have total control over related links. Every link is hardcoded and is independently inserted in specified areas of an webpage. Using Context Links component You can even make related links pointing to a different domains.

Thank you very much.

Excellent, very simple and nice component. It does exactly what it says. I would just suggest to add a copy button in the component toolbar for more efficiency. Thanks a lot for your job ;-)


Owner's reply:
Thanks for your comment and suggestion. It's a nice idea, and I'll be working on this feature as soon as I'll have time for it.

happy to discover this module.
got back from a customer's meeting with a surprise surprise functionality: "oh yes, we told you we want context links displayed in a right-hand column, right ?"

This module helps me out just great. The best thing is that it has a nice and simple component administratio where you can easily select the menu item where you want to display your context link.

Thanks!

Thanks for your interest in Context Links and for your comment.

Good idea but hard to administer by emphyrio, December 21, 2007
1 of 1 people find this review helpful:
The idea is very good: to have your content links displayed in separate module. For a site that's very static in nature, Context Links would probably work well.

Right now it's very hard to administer. You have to do a lot of manual copy & pasting, finding out ID-numbers you want to link, and finding out the URL's. Very hard to keep track of when you need to change something.

Suggestion: it would be great if I could create a link right next to the content item in the backend. Perhaps in an extra tab. And it would be even nicer if I could select the content item from a filtering list (first select section, then category, then content item).

Great idea, just needs some working on.


Owner's reply:
Thanks for you review and suggestions. They'll be very helpful to improve this tool.
