custom fields for link items?

Hi,

I’d like to add two fields in addition to “Description” for my link items. I’ve not been able to find a way to do this with the default installation, nor have I found a relevant plug-in. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks,
Jenn

Re: custom fields for link items?

for one of my sites, i actually ended up using a section with articles for links, so, for example, the title was the title of the link, the body was the url, the excerpt was a description and so forth. then i output them using a form like

<a href=”<txp:body />” <txp:if_excerpt> title=”<txp:excerpt />”</txp:if_excerpt> ><txp:title /></a>

you could use custom fields like this as needed
