wpMyRollPage How to use it
wpMyRollPage displays your your links (blogroll and the such) on a page of your choosing, the output can be formatted in various ways.
To display the roll page simply put [-wpMyRollPage-] into a page. Just make sure you do it without the dashes, otherwise the roll page would have shown here!
Description
wpMyRollPage displays your your links (blogroll and the such) on a page of your choosing, the output can be formatted in various ways.
You can:
- Specify which link categories are displayed.
- Specify if the category headers are shown, and in what size and style.
- Specify if the links ratings are shown.
- Specify how the links ratings are shown (many different icons to choose, from stars and medals to hearts!)
- Specify if the links pictures should be shown.
- Specify if the links descriptions should be shown.
And much more to come! If you want wpMyRollPage to do something that it doesn’t just let me know!

Something about Me
This website and all content is Copyright of James Chorlton 2013. Please see here for futher details and the disclaimer with regards the aforementioned content.
Two issues:
1. Private links should not be shown on page(See checkbox: “Keep this link private” on Edit Link settings)
2. Link pictures aren’t shown even when I enable that feature.
Oops, forgot one more thing (not a issue but a question/feature request). How do I display the category titles alphabetically – from A to Z? (What is the quick fix? Code hack.)
Currently, the plugin is just showing the categories based on category id number, I think.
Both very good points. As they are both quck fixes I will do my best to push them today.
I have released V1.2 that should fix the private links issue and the sorting. WordPress’ SVN repository should refresh within the hour with the update.
I will take a look at the pictures issue later tonight.

What is the best way to make it more spacey between items I don’t want a full line brake just a half to make it a bit neater?
Great plugin! But is there an easy way to group links into columns? I have over a hundred links and this makes for a very long page. Would be great if I could break them up into 2 or 3 columns. Thanks!
Scott,
Currently there isn’t a way to do this, but I will add it to the list for the next time that I make changes to the plugin.
Thanks for the feedback.
James
