Tags: advanced options

To set up the +Advanced options of a link party:

1. Go to your InLinkz Dashboard and click to create or edit a new party.

2. Click to expand the +Advanced options.

Here are the available advanced options:

A. Arrange how the submitted links will be displayed:

• oldest at the top
• newest at the top
• into an alphabetical order
• randomly

B. Select the value of the image size that suits your blog's layout best.

• small
• medium
• large

C. Define the number of links you want to be displayed per page.

The default value is 25 but you can change this number according to your preferences.

D. Define the max number of links you want to be submitted to this link party.

Once this limit reaches, the party will close.

E. Define the max number of links the entrants can submit from the same blog.

Tags: order links, sort links

You can order the links in a link party from the +Advanced options while creating or editing the party.

There are four different sorting types:

Oldest: This is the default option. It places the links that submitted first at the bottom of the collection. This way usually the first one to enter gets the most views (clicks).

Newest: With this option the latest links are displayed first. Everyone gets a chance to be on the top entries. Latecomers get their chance to!

Alpha: This option orders links alphabetically. When links are sorted in alphabetical order, enable the "Don't show the index number for each entry" option as well to drop the numbers, as there is no need for numbers when links can, at any point, be inserted in the middle of the list.

Random: When links are sorted randomly, each time the collection is displayed, the links are in a different position. This is a good option when it comes to photo challenges where you should judge by content. No numbers are attached to the thumbnails by default. 

Tags: limits

There are cases where you would like to set some entry limits for LinkUps, say 10 entries for a giveaway or 2 links from the same blog.

Here is how you can set these numerical limits.

The limits can be set while creating or editing a collection.

1. Click to create a new link party or edit an existing one.

2. Click to expand the +Advanced options.

3. Define the maximum number of links you will allow to this collection. Once this number reaches, the collection will automatically close.

4. Select how many links can be submitted from the same blog.

If an entrant tries to submit more links than the defined limit, then the following message will pop up:

5. Save the changes 

Tags: pagination

If you want all the links to be shown on one single page, simply change the default pagination limit from your +Advanced options, while creating or editing a party:

The number of links per page can be set up to 300 links per page.

Tags: thumbnails size

You can change the size of the thumbnails from the +Advanced options while creating or editing a link party.

You can change the size even when a link party collection has already entries.


Thumbnails size
The available thumbnails sizes are three (small, medium, large). The smaller size is approximately 100x100.

Keep in mind that the way a link party is displayed depends on each blog's layout/ width since the widget is fully responsive (which means that it has been optimized for browsers on desktops, tablets, and mobile devices).
