to creat a categories, just click on add and type in the name of it categories to make a sub categories, lets says you have a categorie name computers, and want to make a sub categories so you will up Computers/Html

html will be your new categories

Thats it.

Because, in another post in this forum, you show that in links.cfg, you have this setting:

Code:
# Field number of category in category.db
$db_main_category = 0;

When it should be as it was in the default links.cfg:

Code:
# Field number of category in category.db
$db_main_category = 1;

Setting it to "0" causes Links to display the ID field, which is a number. Setting it to "1" tells Links to use the Name field of each category record.

I hope this helps.
