Revision [10468]
This is an old revision of LinkManager made by DennyShimkoski on 2005-08-06 07:27:20.
A Robust Link Management Solution
The system currently:
- A) Detects whenever a page mentions its name
- A) Detects whenever a page stops mentioning its name
- A) Allows admins to create "link groups"
- A) Allows managers to assign weights to individual links
- A) Renders "link groups" in a variety of styles
- A) Allows content of linked pages to be embedded within the calling page
The Data Model
CREATE TABLE `wikka_link_manager_groups` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`name` varchar(100) NOT NULL default '',
`description` mediumtext,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
UNIQUE KEY `name` (`name`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;
CREATE TABLE `wikka_link_manager_links` (
`link_id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`this_tag` varchar(75) NOT NULL default '',
`page_tag` varchar(75) NOT NULL default '',
`link_group_id` int(11) default NULL,
`weight` int(11) default NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`link_id`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`name` varchar(100) NOT NULL default '',
`description` mediumtext,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
UNIQUE KEY `name` (`name`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;
CREATE TABLE `wikka_link_manager_links` (
`link_id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`this_tag` varchar(75) NOT NULL default '',
`page_tag` varchar(75) NOT NULL default '',
`link_group_id` int(11) default NULL,
`weight` int(11) default NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`link_id`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;
The PHP Code
I've found that it's convenient to keep a "common settings" file in the actions directory to store variables shared between actions and handlers. In my setup, I call it "common.ini.php". Here is the code:
<?php
// all
$base_url = 'http://localhost/wikka/wikka.php';
$page_var = 'wakka';
// linkmanager.php
$table_link_groups = $this->config['table_prefix'] . 'link_manager_groups';
$table_links = $this->config['table_prefix'] . 'link_manager_links';
$table_pages = $this->config['table_prefix'] . 'pages';
?>
// all
$base_url = 'http://localhost/wikka/wikka.php';
$page_var = 'wakka';
// linkmanager.php
$table_link_groups = $this->config['table_prefix'] . 'link_manager_groups';
$table_links = $this->config['table_prefix'] . 'link_manager_links';
$table_pages = $this->config['table_prefix'] . 'pages';
?>
Next up is the "linkmanager.php" file, which should also be saved in the actions directory...
<?php
/*
* admin interface
* {{linkmanager}}
*
* display options
* {{lmshow}} -- (default) returns all groups as definition list (dl) of links (using the default "box" style)
* {{lmshow style="CSS STYLE"}} -- replace CSS STYLE with box, event, or table for different looks
* {{lmshow group="Group One"}} -- show the group labeled "Group One" as dl of links
* {{lmshow group="Group One" embed="all"}} -- embed the entire body of every link in this page
* {{lmshow group="Group One" embed="Overview"}} -- embed section with heading "Overview" of every link in this page

Lastly, you may want to save the following code as "clearfloats.php" in the actions directory.
<?php
echo '<div style="margin-bottom:-4em;clear:both;"> </div>';
?>
echo '<div style="margin-bottom:-4em;clear:both;"> </div>';
?>
The Much Needed Example
This is taken directly from my test setup, which can be seen in the screenshot below.
{{linkmanager}}
====Using the lmshow Action====
{{lmshow}}
{{clearfloats}}
And some more text goes here...The Screenshot
I actually moused over the link at the bottom to show that link titles are automatically extracted from the linked pages and inserted into each anchor tag's title attribute, but I guess the old PrtScrn button didn't like that idea too much!
But Wait... There's More!
The action can do a lot more than display links. All of the display options are given at the top of linkmanager.php, but I'll repeat them here for easy reference.
{{lmshow}} -- (default) returns all groups as definition list (dl) of links (using the default "box" style) {{lmshow style="CSS STYLE"}} -- replace CSS STYLE with box, event, or table for different looks {{lmshow group="Group One"}} -- show the group labeled "Group One" as dl of links {{lmshow group="Group One" embed="all"}} -- embed the entire body of every link in this page {{lmshow group="Group One" embed="Overview"}} -- embed section with heading "Overview" of every link in this page
