get links : Can I also show ‘Short description’ text out of title?

  • Hi there,

    I have designed a page for my links. Now I use get links in my side bar but for the main page I would really like to show my ‘Short description’ text on the page.

    For example:

    Link Cat: Something here
    The Link
    The link short dexcription

    This is all I have at present: ‘<?php get_links_list(); ?>’

    Can this be done?

    Thanks
    Karl

    This is what I currently have:
    ‘<?php get_links(‘-1’, ‘

    • ‘, ‘

      • ‘, ‘
      ‘, FALSE, ‘id’, TRUE, TRUE, -1, TRUE); ?>’

      but I need to show:
      category first in h3 tag
      Link name in li tag
      short description in p tag

      What do I need to do please?

      Thanks

    You might try the wp get links tag. Heads up in the Codex

    Well I am not a PHP guy and am totally confused as you can see, it’s nearly 24 hours later and still I am stuck on this.

    In the old days I used to get a lot of assistance but the community has changed since wp started.

    All I wanted to show was my links in a certain way, for example:
    ‘<h3>Link Category</h3>’
    ‘

      ‘
      ‘

    • The actual Link name’
      ‘
    • The link description

      • ‘
      ‘

    • Date link Posted

      • ‘
      ‘

    ‘

    and I have no idea how to do this ??

    Thanks for you time.

    sorry back ticks gone weird.
    Should be a UL here
    li here – The actual Link name
    li here – The link description
    li here – Date link Posted
    closing ul here
