It would help if I knew it weaknesses. A couple of folks have pretty much stated that it is shit. But why? I've begun toying with the admin section for the hell of it. The admin was all frames, which was annoying as all hell. So I've plucked out the frames. It's a tad prettier. I've also eliminated most instances of sesson IDs in the admin links. I'm still hunting for some of them. One of phplinks HUGE weaknesses is the use of session IDs in its linking. They will have to be plucked for it to be search engine freindly, as well as nervous surfer friendly. It does have a built-in link verifier, but no recip tester. There isn't a black list of any type. Otherwise it has site configuration, site specs, edit categories, related categories, and you can add sites via the admin as well.
The submit page asks for a username and password, but you can still submit without entering anything. Apparently, if you choose a username, a submitter can go back and edit their site's description and link. That doesn't sound like such a smart idea to me on an adult link list.
BTW, I am not programmer, just a bit of hack with too much spare time.
The version I am working with is 2.1.2.
Fantastico is an automatic script installer often bundled with CPanel. This is the first time I have used it. Pretty cool really. It installed the dbase too.
