phpLD Expansion Pack

The phpLD Expansion Pack is more than a mod. It's an upgrade to the main codebase, available for both the 3.2 and 3.3 versions, that integrates many new features.Here is a list of new options added (skip to download):

Administration

• Submit notification to link owners about pending payments easier
• Easily copy links from one category to antoher [version 3.2 only]
• Disallow submissions to top categories unless the link is featured (optional)
• Disallow submissions of deep links unless the link is featured (optional)

SPAM protection

• Core modifications to make the script safer overall
• Email verification on all submissions (the submitter has to click a link in the welcome email to have his submission considered) (optional)

Search Engine Optimization

• More content by allowing your users to submit articles
• More dynamic content by import of RSS feeds
• Social bookmarking bar with more than 30 sites that can be enabled/disabled from the admin
• Optionally create search engine friendly URLs for the detail pages
• Search engine friendly tag clouds
• Search engine friendly articles (the URL is the article title)

Monetization Opportunities

• More income by allowing your users to submit articles at a price [version 3.2 only]
• Ability to submit and author bio with each article (as seen on most article directories) [version 3.2 only]
• Optionally enable users to submit a set number of deep links from their site [version 3.3 only]
• 4 types of text link and banner advertisment options for your site fully integrated in the admin area
• More payment options (Moneybookers, e-gold)

There is another thing that is worth mentioning: every option above is fully integrated in the admin area which eliminates the need to modify any php or template files (on compatible templates). Plus, every option can be enabled/disabled so it's up to you to choose which one you want and which you don't.

The current phpLD Expansion Pack is 100% free, released under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 United States License¹.
There are two ways you can get the expansion pack you can use in two different situations:

1. [recommended] Get all the files that differ from the stock version (the original phpLD 3.2.0 version) and use them to overwrite the original files. This works if you did not make changes to the original files because they will be lost after overwritting. More details are available in the README file from the expansion pack archive.
   
   
   If you want to receive information on updates as they become available please fill the fields below. Otherwise directly click 'Download'.

   Email

2. Make the changes to each file in order to keep all the initial mods/changes. Because more than 30 files are involved, this can be a complex task. Because of this we can make the modifications for you for an extra charge. Contact us for details.
