To make the statistic mod working on all of your pages including the submit page, suggest category page, report bad listing page and all kind, you have to follow the same instructions as for the file index.php when installing the statistic mod on your directory.
Just add that code: require_once ‘statistic.php’; right under require_once ‘init.php’; in all the *.php page you create including “submit.php”.

New template from Port Prophecy,
This is the old template, as you know portprophecy redesigned his directory recently! So he thought it would be a good idea to share his old directory design as a template. This design has won the PHP Link Directory site of the month contest of August 2006. So actually people will love that template!

Informations:
– Creation of ‘leftsidebar.tpl’.
– top_bar.tpl doesn’t really exist anymore on that template, it is just for user registration only.
– Don’t forget to follow the installation.txt file if you want everything to work properly
Some of you would like to know how to fix that issue. There are 2 fixes. One is more recommended than the other one, but you’ll see and choose which way you want it to be for your directories.
Creating the Ads and Implementing them:
1. Go to your adsense account and create a google ad that fits the layout of the template. Then open the template and see the ads placements (logically already created for you).
If you copy and past the code of your adsense ad without modifying it, it will never work. To make it work you have to delete the HTML comments tags < !-- //-->
I never had problems doing that seriously, though its annoying to modify each ad, but it’ll work out in the end!
2. The second method is the best but also a bit boring to do. Well the idea is to create a “.tpl” file for each google ads and other advertisements. You will then file that .tpl file with the adsense javascript code and nothing else!
To implement the .tpl files just add the following code {include file=”example.tpl”} (change example.tpl to the real file you want to use) where you want to use the ad and it’ll be fine! If you have just 1 directory and you have to do modifications it will take just 15 minutes, for others like me who got 5 of them and templates it’ll take time to re-do all the ads stuffs! I was using the first method for a while :).
Hope that helps..
Hello,
First of all, thank you! We are happy that web directories owners use our free phpld templates, it really gives us the feeling that we do something valuable!
PHPLD Templates Users:
We have created a page dedicated to the users of phpld your site that use our phpld templates, if you use one of our templates and/or want to use one of them, we will add the link of your web directory on the phpLD Templates Users page. You will benefit of our pagerank and traffic. That page is in sitewide with the rest of the site.
How can i remove the ‘PHPLD Your Site’ footer link?
You might want to have a directory without any external backlinks like No Dangers, this helps having more popularity and keeping backlinks within your directory so you don’t loose pagerank (even though you don’t loose that much).
Well the price to remove the link is 50$/directory, if you are interested you can email us and give us your URL, we work with Paypal.
To remove the PHP Link Directory footer link, you will have to buy the full version of phpLD without the link back retained for 75$/directory. If you do not follow that rule we will not support you.
Obviously people that remove the PHPLD Your Site link without authorization will face problems with us, nothing that bad but enough to make you loose all the interests of using our web directory templates.
Don’t forget we design those directories templates for free and this is time consuming! You have no obligation in buying the exclusive right of the template or remove the footer text link of phpld your site! It’s all up to you!
About Sponsoring a Template?
For now there are no programs on sponsoring templates. But we’ll let you know when we are ready for that.
Conclusion
Thanks again and we hope you will like our phpLD templates and use them for your directories projects :),
Cheers!
– Some of our users have problems with the top logo link. When you click on a category or want to submit a link, then you want to go back to the homepage, well you will click the top logo but it doesn’t redirect you to the homepage, it actually redirects you where you are right now so why bother clicking? Why doing effort?
– The problem is fixed if you download the files today, for the ones that already downloaded the files please change the following code for your header logo’s link which is located in header.tpl file.
For the hyperlink of your logo we use that code: {$smarty.const.DOC_ROOT} which is the root of your directory. Well just add /index.php to that code (which is your logo link) and everything should work fine. E.g:
{$smarty.const.DOC_ROOT}/index.php
Now it should redirect you to the home whenever you will click the logo button! Thanks for the PHP Link Directory forum and Boby for that fix :).
