Hi!

I'm trying to make a bullit list of my links, which are in the links module.

I know how to make a list with static links which I place in the .html, but how can I make a list with those dynamic links which are made in the admin-section of dnn?

Thanks for your reply!

Hi Linda,

Well, I don't know if you can create a list with the links module. What I have done is to make this module table-less and I have described that in this article.

When I want an unordered list I use a Text/HTML module and I put the list as simple HTML. I know that this way you can't log the clicks but here is a tip:

1. Put your links in a hidden links module
2. Copy the links that will be produced ( http://www.yoursite.com/LinkClick.aspx?link=your link)
3. Put them as an unordered list in a simple Text/HTML module visible to your guests

I know it's double work but if you need to know how many clicks you get, that's a way to do it.

Cheers

Okay then I'll try that. I was hoping for an automatic way, but this is a bit more work, but it can help me out.

Thank you!

Linda

Hi!

I've found a way to make a bullet list automaticly! :)

You just go to the settings of your linksmodule, there you go to link settings -->
display info link --> yes
display icon --> upload a bullet you like to be in front of your link and select that one here

click update and you have an automatic bulletlist!

The only problem I'm having now is that there don't only appear bullets, but also 3 dots: ... after my link. These are clickable, but do not link to another page (page refreshes and you stay on the same page)

Do you know how to make them disappear?

Cheers!

Hi Linda,

It was my fault... when you said bullet list I thought that you meant an unordered list (UL).

Of course you can have a bullet image in front of the links in the links module using the display icon feature.

If you don't want those three dots just select 'no' at the display info link. Use this feature only if you want to also have a description for each link so when someone clicks on those three dots, the description will show up.

Cheers

Hi Vasilis!

I could also be my fault, my English isn't that good ;) (I'm Dutch)
But thanks for your reply, now everything works properly :)

Cheers,
Linda

Hi Vasilis!

Now I've got a strange problem with the bulletlist' pictures. Sometimes they appear and sometimes they don't (then I get a red cross instead...)
When I log in and then log out it always works, but when I refresh the page after I've logged out it doesn't work anymore... 

the picture is in a folder in the file manager.

Do you have any idea what causes the problem?
 
Thnx!

That's strange indeed! I tried the same locally on my machine and I don't get any issues.

You get the same on both IE and Firefox? I'm just wondering if it's a browser issue on your machine instead of a DNN issue.

If you still have problem with this, I think I've found the solution!

You just have to go to your file manager and give 'View' permissions for 'All Users' to the folder you have put the bullet image in.
