About With this lightweight plugin you can 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. Main features of the plugin: Free and lightweight Support for Block Editor and Classic Editor Display your link list with block, shortcode or widget Customize your link list with attributes Documentation at WP plugin page Active support from developer at WP forum With this plugin you can also create a blogroll or link portal in the same way as a link list. How to use After installation go to menu item “Links” and create some categories and links. Links must be assigned to a category. Go to the editor and add the VS Link Manager block or the shortcode [links] to a page. This will display your link list. Or go to Appearance > Widgets and use the VS Link Manager widget. Default settings categories: 4 columns when using block or shortode 1 column when using widget 2 columns in small screens 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 Customize your link list with attributes. Attributes You can customize your link list by adding attributes to the block, shortcode or widget. Add custom CSS class to link list: class="your-class-name" Change the number of columns: columns="3" Disable the columns: columns="0" 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 the number of links per category: links_per_category="5" Reverse the order of links: order="DESC" Display links by ID: orderby="ID" Display links in random order: orderby="rand" Hide link title: link_title="false" Hide link description: link_description="false" Change feed label: feed_label="your label" Change the “no categories are found” text: no_categories_text="your text" Example: [links include="1,3,5" category_description="true" links_per_category="5"] When using the block or the widget, don’t add the main shortcode tag or the brackets. Example: include="1,3,5" category_description="true" links_per_category="5" With the columns attribute you can set the number of columns between 1 and 4. In small screens max 2 colums. You can disable the columns in favour of your own styling. The columns attribute will be ignored when using the block or widget. Because you can set the columns via the block or widget settings. With the “hide link title” attribute you can hide the link title if the link has an image assigned to it. This way you can display the link image only, instead of both. Widget This plugin activates the Links widget again. Because this widget is part of WordPress, plugin has no control over it. You can use the VS Link Manager widget instead. Have a question?
