The design concept of this tag is to allow you to get the friendship link data configured on the background with the least amount of code. Its basic usage is as follows:
{% linkList friendLinks %}
{# 在这里编写循环代码来显示友情链接 #}
{% endlinkList %}
Here, friendLinksIs a custom variable name, you can name it according to your preference (for examplelinks/myFriendLinksetc.).linkListThe tag will return a list object containing all friendship link information, you can use a loop to iterate over them one by one.forTo display them one by one.
linkListThe tag usually does not require any additional parameters, it will intelligently obtain all the friendship links under the current site. However, if you are using the multi-site management feature and want to obtain friendship links of a specific site, you can use it additionallysiteIdparameters, for example{% linkList friendLinks with siteId="2" %}.
In the loop, each friendship linkitem(You can customize the loop variable name) includes the following available fields:
item.Title: The name of the friendship link.item.Link: The target URL of the friendship link.item.Remark: Note set by the background (usually not displayed directly).item.Nofollow: A boolean value, if checked in the backgroundnofollow, then this value is1Otherwise0. You can dynamically add this value on the front end.rel="nofollow"Property.
Friend link list display code example
Now, let's look at an example code of how to display the friendship link in the template.This is usually placed in the footer (footer.html) or a dedicated page for links (for examplepage/friend-links.html).
{# 假设这是您的模板文件中的某个位置，例如页脚 #}
{% linkList friendLinks %} {# 调用linkList标签，将友情链接数据赋值给friendLinks变量 #}
{% if friendLinks %} {# 建议先判断friendLinks变量是否存在内容，避免在没有链接时显示空区域 #}
<div class="friendly-links-section">
<h3>友情链接</h3> {# 您可以根据需要修改标题 #}
<ul class="friendly-links-list">
{% for item in friendLinks %} {# 遍历friendLinks中的每一个友情链接项 #}
<li>
<a href="{{ item.Link }}" {# 链接地址 #}
{% if item.Nofollow == 1 %} rel="nofollow"{% endif %} {# 根据后台设置的Nofollow属性添加rel #}
target="_blank" {# 建议设置为新窗口打开，保留用户在您网站的访问 #}
title="{{ item.Title }}{% if item.Remark %} - {{ item.Remark }}{% endif %}"> {# 鼠标悬停时显示链接名称和备注 #}
{{ item.Title }} {# 链接的显示名称 #}
</a>
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
</div>
{% endif %}
{% endlinkList %}
