Links displayed will not go to flush left

Also, is there a way to show links in the order that they were created- if no date was entered?

Dates are automatically assigned to links as they get created. For the CSS question, I would need a link to the page in question, as it is likely something in your site stylesheet that is getting applied to the links.

For the dates, how would I have them display in reverse chronological order?

I have the bullets turned off, and the category name turned off, but I cannot get
them to flush right..

Thanks!!

While you have hidden the bullets, the items are still displayed as an unordered bullet list, and that list is assigned some padding as part of your theme’s stylesheet.

If you go to line 1092 of your theme’s style.css, you will see the following style block:

#left-area ul, .entry-content ul, .comment-content ul, body.et-pb-preview #main-content .container ul {
    padding: 0 0 23px 16px;
    line-height: 26px;
    list-style-type: disc;
}

The 16px parameter of the padding is the left padding, of 16px. Make that 0 and it will properly align.

In terms of the dates, if you select Order by Updated Date as the order, then set the direction to descending, you will get links in reverse chronological order.

Perfect! Thanks so much!

One page is still showing the links the wrong way, and I have changed from Ascending to Descending and back and forth, but it won’t change.. I even made a new library with those settings, and still this one list won’t show in reverse chrono order…

https://www.animal matters.org/lab/ is the one page that is not behaving…

Thanks again for the help!

Can you activate debug mode for that library? That will add some extra hidden information in the page output that will let me get a better idea of your configuration and the associated data for each link.

Debug mode is now one via the General Options

Thanks!

How were the links created? Did you install Link Library, then create then? Or did you create them before using the WordPress Link Manager? Or perhaps you imported them via the CSV file import functionality? None of the links have updated dates assigned, which would explain why it cannot properly sort by that data.

Hello,
Link manager was installed, and then the links were created. They did not put dates in the link- instead putting the dates in the ‘notes’ section. I have the notes displayed, so it shows a ‘date’ but that is really just a note…

I would like them all to be displayed by the date they were entered, if that is possible.

Also, if I update to the new version, will it overwrite the library settings that I have created, and the CSS changes that I have made?

Cheers-

Upgrading to new versions will not alter any of your settings or CSS changes, so no worries on that side.

Concerning the dates not having been stored, I am a bit puzzled on that side. I just tried creating a new link and am seeing a date set for it.

Here is what I am getting, with the date circled in red: https://imgur.com/XdZO7ov

Is that field empty for you?
