It seems that our user just do not "see" the button "Visit the site" with link. Our hits stats is even worse as bad after few months.

Really? Your uses can't see a BIG GREEN BUTTON that says VISIT THE SITE? It's been like that since version 1 from other devs... I'm the 3rd, if I'm not mistaken.

Regarding the domain name, I have absolutely no idea as I never used it. Will try to fix for the next version, that should be out in a couple of days or so.

And no, the link can't be there because there's a ton of ajax checking in that button to count the click, guests or not, etc. You can edit your template and add the link if you want.

Unfortunately. The stats for hits are really very low. The stats for views are high.

Yes, it will increase if people click on it. If the don't click, doesn't increase.

Suggestion: we desperately need a widget with link reviews (not comments! we do not use comments at all). Is there any plans to add the widget for the link reviews?

Ok, I'm dropping the PAID links feature and will add a Package module. New version yet this week.

I can see the paid submission setting in the ACP. Have you implemented packages already? If yes, how do I use them?

Go to category and set a price for the submission. After you will see the notice when submitting a link and the invoice will be created after submission.

Packages ia ready and in tests. It should have been released earlier this week but after a couple of posts in this topic, fixing other things. 

I do not recommend use the paid links now. It was dropped as advised a few months ago.

Just one question: is it possible to define the packages the way that only some user groups have to pay to add links and other groups can make it for free?

Sure. It’s pretty flexible. 👍

I’ll post screenshots later.

Sorry, one question more  I have added an Extra Field in ACP, but I cannot see it on the edit/add screen of the link. Is there is something I need to do more to use the field?

Like any other app, go to the category and choose which fields should be used on it. It will show up after that.

[Sonya*]

Oh, I see. Thank you.

[Sonya*]

Small issue in ACP: if I enable Enable Reposition of Extra Fields then the dropdown with fields that should be able to be repositioned appear below the next setting Display Address regardless Map.

[Adriano Faria]

Costmetic issue. Ok.

EDIT: Fixed for next version.

And a small display issue for pinned/featured links: if the title is too long then the pinned/featured icon is shown on the own line.

[Adriano Faria]

Ok, from now on, as requested, use the Tracker: http://www.sosinvision.com.br/ips4/index.php?/tracker/linksdirectory/

If you don't have an account, create it and I'll change your group.

Thank you.

[Adriano Faria]

@Sonya*, I just approved and changed your account to the proper group. Please, submit ONE report per issue.

Thank you.

wrt to using the Address field and maps 

I couldn't get an Address field to appear using Settings, but I can get one to appear with Extra Fields.  Not sure if it is supposed to work that way or not.

For the map to appear in the future, should I be using one or the other ?   Will the map appear if the Address is an extra field?

Just want to check before I enter a lot of info and activate the field in all the categories.

EDIT: Update, set up Google Maps API.  Working in Calendar. 

Thanks
JM

Works fine to me using Google Maps or Mapbox. Enable the setting Allow link location? in the categories you want. Add the location when you're creating/editing the link:

 

The map will show up:

Of course, no as this app has its own LOCATION field.

Dammit. 

My apologies for being stupid. 

I promise to smack myself at least five times on your behalf.

Hi. Is there a way to hide the 'author' of the link.

If you edit the template, yes. 

[Giray]

I have a buddy of mine next to me. I told him, watch this, I'm going to have to edit the template 😉 I win! Okay, I'll start digging. Any chance you can point me... Nah, never mind, I'll go in and play! BTW, I had bought the directory in 2011. Was out of the game for a while. Back in. Bought it again today. Hope you got paid!!
