Thoughts of future high demand - Server DR Paul - Quick question [and I know I am not including any specifics]

Attached is a current example of a typical Page load time

My host - VPS Linux - is running with php safe mode on - so I can't use any other suggested load management suggested in the manual scripts.webmastersite.net/w.../wsnmanual/link.php?id=296

Thinking to the future of "many users" [ not there yet !]disapproval

at what point - and at what numbers - and how would I know ? - [other than pages refusing to load ] that I should consider possibly another /faster server ?

Thanks ...

Can not delete category DR If memory serves me correct - I had the same problem[ it only happened once ] but it was when using 4.0.7.


I believe after it happened to me - I was sure that I always did "only" "hard" deletes ...

and then checking with phpmyadmin - to be sure - it really was "deleted" from the database

Category Edit - Act as Link: DR That did it !

I forgot rolling eyes about the power of conditionals

Also when the Category acts as link - so as to not get empty brackets with no # - ex. () after the category name - [Since there are now no links in the Category]

I also inserted CATNUMLINKS after the "otherwise"

Works perfect - Thanks very much

Sponsorship enhancement DR This is what I am using for the time being to get a "Featured Category"

This presents itself - before the normal category presentation of links in Category etc.

The code I am using is as follows

See "Presented by Attachment"

For Visual Example: Please see the featured Presenter screenshot Attachment

This is for two different categories - so I have a featured presenter status for 2 different categories ....

The images are stored in a separate folder outside of WSN Links ... on my own server - or if it works �" source it direct from the Sponsor's web site ..

The images are "clickable" to allow immediate transfer to the presenting sponsor's website of choice ...

Using this method you would need to do the same for each Category that is sponsored - either using a custom image that I have created etc.[to fit within the specific amount of pixel area that I have chosen] - or link directly to an image on the sponsor's server

Yes ..this does takes manual insertion - and this would start adding a great deal of code - as the number of Featured Category presenters increases -
and there is no paypal or other integration - but for now - it is working

I have not yet figured out either:
1)- using conditionals or other to see - how to make this less complicated ...
...or 2) maybe looking at something like "adpeeps" to do a "targeted ad area" with a custom size banner etc.

Thought I would present to all - what I am looking for/ what direction I am going in way of presentation/possibilities etc.

Thanks ..

Compliment DR I will add my 2 cents worth as well .. knowing that there are others who like me are doing this /did this .....

Knowing how much time (valuable time) I invested in the past "lurking" around on forums - hearing what people had to say - and investigating potential "options" from other sources before committing to wsnlinks ...

Unfortunately .. originally testing another "option" - raised eyebrow- then abandoning - after much time wasting ..then chose to test wsnlinks .. and because all systems "go" went live ..

I have been more than pleased with the never ending / expanding capabilities that seem to be available ..

and Paul is constantly looking at / working on suggestions / the features ... etc that get talked about in this forum ...

So for those of you - who's time is valuable - don't waste your time with other options - instead "invest your time" to really learn about wsnlinks - I know it seems I learn something new almost every day about what can be done - and how to do it ..

..and those of you out there that keep finding new ways - and abilities in wsnlinks - please keep sharing them on this forum .. grin

Category Edit - Act as Link: DR Thanks Paul - that is Good Stuff ...

I am almost there:

(after selecting a category to act like a link - in Category Edit Mode)

Added the following code to the main.tpl

<IF {CATACTASLINK}><a href={CATURL} target="blank">{CATNAME}</IF></a>

I am attaching a screenshot detail of what I have currently..

Looking at the Upper Left Category Area:
The lighter colored "Category Act as A Link" link on the left will open in a new window (this is good!)
The darker "Category Act as A Link" link on the right just opens the link

Do I need to have a custom template ? - Is there a way to not have an apparent doubling of the Category Link? - I have tried ...but everything I do so far - removes the "normal acting" category links for all other categories.

...or have I gone about this the wrong way raised eyebrow

Category Edit - Act as Link: DR Category Edit - Act as Link:

In the editing of a Category: This following choice is available - which is greatnod

If this is filled in with a URL, clicking on the category will redirect people to the URL.

What I am after is:

Is there a way to have that Category[acting like a link] to force open a new window ... specifically for that Category[acting like a link]?

Thanks to all - for any suggestions in advance

Sponsorship enhancement DR Referencing Paul's 4.1 Possibilities Thread:

https://www.webmastersite.net/forums/thread/7097

I too am seeking ways to have Category Sponsorship enabled ...

for the "immediate now" raised eyebrow this is what I am working on .. and what I am hoping to have it looking like when I end up...

Main Page ( Just as it is now ...) - shows all Cats listed: ( Top Level Categories) [i.e. - One of these Categories would be Travel]
[- there would be no Category Sponsorship - at least at this time shown on this screen/main page]

So were are at

Directory>

For my use I am calling this level "0"

When clicking on the Travel Category - it brings up

example: Travel

Directory>Travel

For my use I am calling this level "1"

- and this is how things work now ...

What I would like to be able to add is [ a specified _ _ _ pixels x _ _ _ pixels image/banner ] in this level "1" Directory>Travel

This image/banner area would Say/Show something to the effect of:

The presenting sponsor's image/information etc. or however it could best be used.
example:
Travel
- Presented by _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Company etc...

And also an optional area below the specified _ _ _ pixels x _ _ _ pixels image/banner area

Stating - Presented by _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Company etc... ...and then a insert of their Company Logo etc.

I would have each of these image/banner areas be able to be used as hyperlinks to the sponsoring company (opening in a new window)
=================
Then
Drilling down another level ( first sub-category level)( For my use I am calling this level "2")

say to a Sub Cat Called "Accommodation"

So now were at Directory>Travel>Accommodation

I could repeat the same process ....

and again if I had level "3" Categories

example:
Directory>Travel>Accommodation>Resorts
or
Directory>Travel>Accommodation>Hostels

I believe this would give some great revenue opportunities ...

The "Gate Keeper Level" - [Level 1] provides a great opportunity for a company/organization wishing broad exposure "to all" - or wishing to be "top of mind" for consumers etc. in say the Travel Category. And has a very valuable location.

or .. possibly they might wish to be "closer" to the final destination - [Resorts] [Level 3]

This is also a very valuable location as it has become a highly targeted area .... I would expect to set the variable rates according to location/demand etc.


Maybe there already is a good way to do this ... and I just haven't discovered this yet ...

"Thanks all" for taking the time to read this ..

If you have input - on this ---- or if I haven't described what I was thinking in a clear way - please post - or feel free to PM me if you have ideas etc. on this ....

Paul ..Look forward to your future developments

...you asked for some feedback etc. hope this helps - if there is a better place - or more productive area to have this posted in ... I know you will move it there .. smiling face
