I have created a basic module that displays a page in the main center view.
Now I have several of these and rather than have lots of modules listed it would be easy to have a block with the links listed (Possibly with clickable .GIF’s)

What would the code be to achieve this, have tried but failed.

Thanks in advance for any help icon_smile.gif

Go into your admin control panel and click "blocks", scroll down to where it says " Add A New Block" and name it what ever you like in the title box. Then insert this code into the "Content" box:

<center><br><a href="http://www.YOURLINK.com/" target="_self"><img border=0 src="http://www.YOURSITE.com/PATHTOIMAGE/IMAGENAME.gif" alt="WHATEVER"></a></center><br>


By placing the <br> at the end you can just keep adding links under the first one, the <br> puts a nice little space in between the links in the block. After you insert the code just choose what Position you want your block at, ie; Left, Center Up, Center Down, Right. Then set your permissions to who can view the block and click "Create Block".

You can also use the Nuke Tools under the navagation menu then under the heading " Web Tools" here on Codezwiz if you like by adding all your links. For something like this I prefer the manual way, that way it's real easy to add links to or remove links from the block by just clicking on "Edit" under the block functions in the Blocks Administration for that particular block title.

P.S. Make sure to use small images for the links! icon_wink.gif

So far so good, thanks for that icon_smile.gif

Is there away to display them in the center?
I have a module that does but don’t want to list a module for each each link.
Can I get the module to work from the block as a link?

Thanks again so far icon_smile.gif

To have it open in your center page I believe you can do that with Iframes, however I am not an Iframe kinda guy icon_neutral.gif maybe someone with Iframe experience will chime in here. I know this could be done with CZIframe modules, but this would be linking a bunch of different modules, and you have stated you don't want to link a bunch of modules.

To link the existing module(s) just put the link(s) to the module in the link itself. ie: [ Register or login to view links on this board. ]
