My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

How will I be able to add custom outbound links in the sidebar? Is it possible or do I need a plugin for that?

Hi,

It's depending on the version of B2evo you use (please give us that information if you ask a question).
In 1.10 try through the linkblog or add an item in the skin, something like:

<div class="bSideItem">
<h3>External Links</h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.b2evolution.net">B2evolution</a></li>
</li><a href="http://forums.b2evolution.net">Forums</a></li>
</ul>
</div>


In 2.1 you want either a linkblog or the Free HTML widget.

Good luck

I have version b2evolution 1.10.2.. and that isn't working for me. I have tried adding links this way.

Also like a dumb ass I deleted my linkblog.. Will that allow me to put links under misc?

I really need to be able to do this.

Can you help this B2E noob out? I really like this software.

Here is my code.

<div class="bSideItem">
		<h3><?php echo T_('Misc') ?></h3>
		<ul>
                       <li><a herf="http://deome.net/deome/gallery2">Gallery</a></li>
			<?php
				user_login_link( '<li>', '</li>' );
				user_register_link( '<li>', '</li>' );
				user_admin_link( '<li>', '</li>' );
				user_profile_link( '<li>', '</li>' );
				user_subs_link( '<li>', '</li>' );
				user_logout_link( '<li>', '</li>' );
                       ?>
                                
		</ul>
	</div>

Yes, a linkblog will do.

You can create a new blog and use it as a linkblog. The linkblog is usually not in the blogroll (menu for the blogs) Disable it through Blogsettings -> Linkblog (the new one) -> Display -> Display public blog list (turn off).

In the basic blog you want to incorporate the linkblog. Do Blog Settings -> Blog (choose your blog) -> Display -> Default linkblog -> Choose the newly created linkblog.

The linkblog should now appear in the sidebar of the main blog. You can fill the linkblog with whatever link and/or (small) post you like.

That's about the basics. If you have subsequent questions please ask.

Good luck

Your code should work if you change herf in href. My code above should work also, there change the one </li> at the start of the line in <li>.

Have fun
