Add custom field to "links"

I want to store information about youtube movies in Links, so that I can output a linklist of youtube movies. Unfortunately txp Links don’t have enough fields to store all the information. Is it possible to add a custom field to Links (by hacking txp)? Thanks!

Hi

I don’t know how you can hak txp to do what you are looking for, but have tried to use articles instead of link to solve your problem?

Cheers

Thought about it, but I’d rather not.

Hi curiouz
What kind of info are you thinking about?

Just that?
How are you thinking of calling the videos? Is it your site? For a client? The reason I am asking is that if it is yours there may be alternatives which although they require that you know what you are doing, they may neverthelss do what you are looking for?
