Geeklog redirects the links through the portal.php script because otherwise there would be no way to count how many times a link has been clicked on.

Of course, if you're after increasing your page rank in Google, this won't help you much there (although Googlebot does follow these links). You could change the templates for the links section (in the "links" directory in your theme's directory) if you want, but you'd lose the link counts then ...

bye, Dirk

the 1.3.11 version of the professional theme has the following for /links/linkdetails.thtml:
Text Formatted Code
<li>
  <strong><a href="{link_url}" title="{link_actual_url}">{link_name}</a></strong> ({link_hits}) {link_edit}<br>
  {link_description}
</li>

 
notice the title attribute in the anchor tag... that will give you the actual url when your mouse hovers over the link (like an alt attribute for an image). It does not change the link to potal.php however, because, as Dirk has said, this is necessary for hit counting..

It might be crazy talk to start experimenting but you might want to try changing it to this:

Text Formatted Code

<li>
  <strong><a href="{link_actual_url}" title="{link_actual_url}">{link_name}</a></strong> ({link_hits}) {link_edit}<br>
  {link_description}
</li>

 

Yes I am mental.

yes & no.

There is no feature to attach something.
the site admin however can use HTML in the picture description in order to display an image. allowing guests to do that is a security problem and therefore disabled.
