I am trying to setup a links page with linkview. Unfortunately I get an unwanted large space between the category name and no space at all between the last link of a category and the next one. I was not able to find where these spaces are set in the CSS nor in the html.
Do you have a custom CSS I can use to solve this issue? Thanks a lot.

Link View is great for displaying lists of related links, and is a good tool that lets me keep links up to date so that if the location of a resource changes the links to it can be updated in all the lists on my site.
However, I also link to resources within the body of the text on the site. It would be great if it was possible to re-use the list of links provided by Link View rather than having to link directly to the resource.
I guess that what I am looking for is something like a short code that would let me do something like this.
Look at this really interesting post on [linkview link=10]how to use Link View[/linkview].
Is something like that possible?
]]>Hi,
Is there a way to specify “and” for category filters? That is, if a link is a part of Category 1 and Category 2, is it possible to craft a tag that only shows links that are members of both categories?
If not, how would I submit a feature request to support tags?
Thank you for your help!
]]>Hi mibuthu,
I use your plugin on some of my sites and find it very useful!
But the sites now begin to complain about this plugin being abandoned, as there were no updates since 3 major WP versions.
Would it be possible to make a minor change and repost it to the repository?
It works fine with WP 5.4…
A donation is considered ??
Kind regards, hleenwp
]]>Hi,
how can I integrate the plugin to work with PolyLang?
Regards: Tom
I’m using the Linkview plugin for a small website for our small animal club where I rely on the links based on categories. For the third time a lot of links lost their relationship with their category. Because this can only be repaired editing the links one for one it is a lot of work. (It would be nice when editing can be done for multiple links at once.) I don’t know why en when these linked categories disappear … Hope someone has a clue …
Kind regards,
Roland
I get this message:

Ver. 0.7.2 introduced “declare(strict_types=1)” in 8 files in this plugin. It causes warnings in all PHP 5.x, with WP_DEBUG or by looking at error_log. You need PHP 7 to use that “declare” so it should not be in this plugin.

`[linkview cat_filter=”argentina” show_cat_name=0 link_items=”{ “name”: “”, “description”: “” }”]
Shouldn’t this show name & description of all links in the argentina-category? What am I doing wrong?
]]>Love this plugin. However the font size and boldness of the category title (above the links) is to big for my sidebar. How do we make it a smaller font size?
]]>I use ListView to create a list of articles I have published on other sites. I want to be able to have the links in order of submission with the newest at the top.
Currently, the list_order doesn’t offer order by date. Is there a way to make it work?
]]>Hi
How do I get the links more centered with the categories+ As you can see on the link page, they are not centered.
Thanks in advance for the help
How do I center the list on my wordpress post?
I’ve tried selecting [linkview] and then choosing center in the post editor. But that didn’t do anything. If it’s something I need to change in the CSS editor, then tell me how to adjust it.
]]>I enter a link in the add function of Link View and press Add Link. The screen blanks and then nothing happens. The link is not added. I’ve tried different links and still nothing. I downgraded to the older version, same result.
But it worked recently.
any suggestions? Did I reach some kind of limit on number of links?
(The links that exist, several hundred of them, still display fine)
]]>Hello,
First thing your plugin is very useful and thank you.
Also it would be possible to add the display the date of addition of links?
Thank you again and good continuation
]]>In the last year I added lots of links to my site. Unfortunately WP’s search function does not find them.
I would be more than glad when the link names (and preferably also the descriptions) would be scanned by WP’s search function.
Do you think you can add that feature to the plugin? Or is WP’s search function itself the limiting factor?
Frank
]]>I love this plugin, but I was hoping to find out if you planned on updating the plugin to be more compatible with the latest version of WP 4.7.
Since the update the links are below the bullets making it appear off-kilter, prior to the update of WP they looked beautiful.
I have a plugin that permits Categories to be applied to WordPress Pages. When I use your shortcode the links dont display. Is it because it does not work with WordPress Pages?
Here is my shortcode
[linkview view_type=”slider” show_cat_name=”false” link_order=”asc” num_links=”-1″ cat_filter=”reference”]
Hi There,
This is a great little plugin which I would like to use for a school – the school wants to list many external link resources which I have managed to style using css. The only thing I’m struggling with is targeting the H2 widget title, I would like to reduce the font size to 22px – currently it’s using the H2 theme font size of 37px so its way to big to display.
If that’s not possible can I remove the title altogether? I can’t find an option in the link widget to remove or change it? Please can you help? I’m using the links widget in a drag and drop page builder so it’s very handy indeed.
Have tried:
.widget-title h2 {
font-size: 22px;
}
Many thanks
Kat
]]>Hi,
is there a way to sort the files in a category manually?
Thanks,
Christian.
could i use this to create a multi column list in the main body of my homepage?
the theme that i use does not presently create a compact way of displaying all my categories (created through the theme)
if i could add the category links manually and add this multi col list to my homepage, would be great
can this do the trick?
thanks
]]>On the admin page links are ordered by name.
It would be great to be able to sort by link_id. I often want to edit my last added link (change the description or so) but then I have to scroll several pages to find it back.
Now I can tweek the plugin, but would it be possible to add link_id as a second way of ordering the list of links on the admin page?

]]>Hello there.
Im finding that LinkView is a great plugin to feature our site’s listing of artists and creatives. However, Im wondering if there is a conditional that one can set for link images.
About 90% of the people can provide me an image (like a banner sized image) for their link listing. However, for the 10% who just dont want to provide one (or cant), I run into the problem of that listing still creating an img element, with it being blank inside. Is there any shortcode for Linkview that can be used to say “show image unless empty”?
My current shortcode
[linkview show_img=1 cat_name="Art from SoCal Furs" list_symbol=none cat_columns="css(num_columns=2)" link_columns=2 link_items='{"image_l": "", "name_l": ""}' ]
I’ve been attempting to create a slider of links by means of the Linkview widget, but can’t seem to get the active list item to appear, though the slider is certainly there (in the source code of the page). Probably I’m simply overlooking something — but I’d appreciate any help you can give.
The page is here: https://www.musicuratumlargeprint.org, and the slider ought to be appearing towards the top; the widget area within which it is placed is the first division under the #main.site-main area.
]]>Good morning,
Is there a way of adding nofollow to some lists of links at all?
Thanks,

Hello,
I would like to insert a shortcode with count number of links from categories.
E.g. This categories has [8] links.
How can i do that?
]]>Hi, I′d like to display the links in columns (one col for each cat). How do I do that?
Chris
Where can I find a list of the shortcodes for this plugin? There is no “about LinkView” page!
