My Links Manager categories have a post-type of post, so I would think it would work but nothing I try will work.
I’ve tried many shortcode combinations but here’s an example:
[catlist id=’linkcat-256′]
Links Manager assigns category as such: id=linkcat-256 taxonomy=link_category post_type=post
It must be because the links within the categories are not posts themselves—thoughts, workarounds?
]]>e.g., Can/Should this hyperlink be used to display a page with only the links that are assigned to that category? What would the correct value be to make that happen?

]]>After disabling Links Manager, I tried installing LL 5.9.13 into WP 4.6 using the WordPress Plugin Catalog method (i.e., Dashboard -> Plugins -> Add New -> Select one from the catalog) and using the Plugin Upload method (i.e., Dashboard -> Plugins -> Add New -> Upload) but both methods fail.
The Apache error_log only had this to say:
[Fri Aug 19 23:45:35 2016] [warn] [client 24.22.63.252] (104)Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server, referer: https://practicalxenserver.org/wp-admin/plugin-install.php?s=Link+library&tab=search&type=term

What might be causing this failure?

]]>I have a multisite that was created before the 3.5 depreciation of the links list in core. So, some of my subsets had a links list and some didn’t depending on when they were created. I only clued into this yesterday when starting to migrate a new subsite from an existing WP blog that is quite old.
I know the Links Manager plugin needed to be installed. I also know that on a standalone site you see the following when trying to access that depreciated feature: “If you are looking to use the link manager, please install the Link Manager plugin.” (It helpfully links to the plugin, too.)
On multisite, you see: “Cheating huh?” Or, well, that’s what I saw until I installed the plugin, now I see the error message above.
]]>When defining a link in the page/post editor, one can choose ‘existing content’, but this is only other pages. Is there a way to pick one of the links?
The site I’m working on now has a number of sponsors and each time they are mentioned they would like to have a link to their own home page. So the same link will be used more than once in different pages. I would like to be able to update all instances of a link by updating it once in the WordPress Links manager.
Is this possible, via WordPress or a plugin?
Thanks!
Patrick
