Link Lists in Wordpress Question

Rick Diculous · 2008-10-03, 12:08 AM

Is it possible to add multiple link lists in wordpress? I allready have a link list in my right side bar and I would like to add another one, but the link widget is disabled.

I have seen some blogs with multiple link lists

like:

TOP BLOGS
FRIENDS
MORE HOT SITES
FAVORITE PORN SITES

etc....

Does someone know how to make this happen?

Go into your admin, into Design, Widgets

On the left are your widgets, you should be able to Add it and select the Sidebar that it appears on.

Though, depending on the site, its possible that they hardcoded it into a 'Text' widget to appear on the side.

I'm pretty new to blogging, but can't you just add new categories under "Manage Link Categories" ?

At least that's what I did here: Mistress Maya
Or is that what's disabled?

I added the categories but in the widget section, there is no "add" button on the link widget.

I believe if you use different "Categories" for your links they may separate, but still on the same side bar. But if you really want to place another one on the other side bar, you can place the links manually - code it instead of using a widget, because some wordpress templates does not support widgets (i know 'cause i have one)
