Using the element in the builder

Inserting the element

  1. Open the page in the YOOtheme builder.
  2. Add a new element and choose the group Graup-IT → Backlinkseller in the element browser.
  3. Save the page and open it in the frontend — the links appear there.

Inside the builder you usually do not see the links: the request depends on the address of the page being viewed, and the preview has a different one. To check the setup there is test mode, see below.

Test mode

The switch Test mode on the element replaces the list of links with an overview of the values arriving from the plugin settings: ID, channel, page address, cache lifetime and debug state. If no ID is stored, it says so explicitly.

This is how you check whether the element sees the settings — without depending on a real answer from the service. Switch it off again before publishing.

Appearance

The element follows the styling of the YOOtheme list element. You set:

  • Type: below each other (vertical) or side by side (horizontal).
  • Marker and Marker Color: bullet and its colour — for the vertical layout only.
  • Style and Size: dividers, stripes, font size.
  • Separator: the character between entries — for the horizontal layout only. The default is a comma followed by a space.
  • Columns, Columns Breakpoint and Divider: multi-column wrapping from a given screen width, optionally with a dividing line.
  • HTML Element: ul or ol. With the option next to it the list is additionally wrapped in a <nav> — useful if the links are meant to count as a navigation block.
  • Content Style and Link Style: text style of the entry and style of the link.

On top of that come the usual YOOtheme settings for spacing, width, alignment, animation and visibility.

How an entry is put together

Backlinkseller usually delivers one link per entry with some text before or after it. The extension separates the two and outputs them in this order: text before, link, text after. If an entry contains no usable link, it appears as plain text.

Only the address, the link text and the attributes rel, target and title are taken from the link. Everything else in the answer is discarded — that is a security measure, see Privacy and security .

Several elements on one page

You can place the element more than once. All elements share the same plugin settings and therefore the same request — so they show the same links, but they can be styled differently.

Applies to version 2.7.4.
