About
This is a lightweight plugin to display a set of links from the Link Manager.
The Link Manager is part of WordPress but disabled by default. This plugin will activate it again.
Add shortcode [links] on a page to display your blogroll.
You can personalize your blogroll by adding attributes to the shortcode.
This plugin can also be used to create a link portal.
How to use
After activation you will notice a new menu item called “Links”. Add categories and links here. Links must be put into a category.
Create a page and add shortcode [links] to display your blogroll.
Default settings categories:
- 4 columns
- Order by name
- Ascending order (A-Z)
- Empty categories are hidden
Default settings links:
- Order by name
- Ascending order (A-Z)
- All links are displayed
Shortcode attributes
You can add attributes to the shortcode mentioned above.
- Add custom CSS class to blogroll:
class="your-class-here" - Change number of columns:
columns="3" - Include certain categories:
include="1,3,5" - Exclude certain categories:
exclude="8,10,12" - Display empty categories too:
hide_empty="0" - Display category description:
category_description="true" - Change number of links per category:
limit="5" - Display links in descending order:
order="DESC" - Display links by ID:
orderby="ID" - Display links in random order:
orderby="rand" - Hide link title:
hide_title="true" - Hide link description:
hide_description="true"
About the columns attribute: you can choose between 1-4 columns. In mobile screens 2 columns (except the 1 column blogroll).
You can disable the CSS of the individual columns with columns="0". This can be useful when using your own styling.
About the hide link title attribute: only has effect when link has an image assigned to it.
Examples:
- One attribute:
[links include="1,3,5"] - Multiple attributes:
[links include="1,3,5" category_description="true" limit="5"]
Widget
This plugin activates the Links widget again, but has no control over it.

Please take a look at the FAQ section.

常见问题
-
Where is the settings page?
-
Plugin has no settings page, use the shortcode with attributes to make it work.
-
How can I change the layout or colors?
-
Besides the number of columns, the layout or colors of the blogroll can only be changed by using custom CSS.
You can disable the CSS of the individual columns with
columns="0". CSS class “vslm-custom” is added to the blogroll, so you can use that for your custom styling. -
Can I order links by date?
-
No, this is not possible.
But with the orderby and order attribute you can order links by ID and in descending order. That way new links will be displayed first.
-
Where to find the category ID?
-
Every category URL contains an unique ID. You will find this ID when hovering the category title in your dashboard or when editing the category.
It’s the number that comes after:
tag_ID= -
Where to find the link ID?

Does this plugin have its own block?

No, plugin doesn’t have its own block in the editor and there are no plans to add this anytime soon.

No Semantic versioning?

Version number doesn’t give you info about the type of update (major, minor, patch). You should check changelog for that.
