What is phpLD?
phpLD is a flexible, robust, and SEO-friendly solution for developing something as simple as a link directory or something as big as a job or local business directory.
They’ve just recently released phpLD 4.1, loaded with even more goodies: new fields like the image field with lightbox capabilities and the file upload field, improved submission validation with jQuery, and more.
phpLD Features
You can find a fuller list on PHP Link Directory’s Features page, but just to highlight a handful of excellent features:
- Widgets: which allow you to customize and add more functionality to your installation
- SEO friendly: the software promotes good search engine visibility
- Customizability: with the use of the popular PHP templating system, Smarty
- PayPal integration: for subscription-based payments
- Google Maps integration: allows for maps, helpful for business listings
- File uploading: allows submitters to upload associated files
- Reporting and emailing capabilities
- Customer support
phpLD Demo
The best way to learn about phpLD is to try out their live demo that allows you to even try out different themes. You could also check out the phpLD forums to find out more about phpLD.
