“Add Link” Bookmarklet for Wordpress

January 16th, 2009 | Posted in Journal | 2 Comments »

I man­aged to find how to put an “Add Link” or “Link This” book­marklet in my browser bar.  It needed a teeny update, so I thought I’d post how I did it, in hopes it might help some­body else. 

The orig­i­nal was in this forum thread by “rileycentral” :  

Word­Press › Sup­port » addlink book­marklet gone?.

All I did was change the width of the popup win­dow to 800px to allow for the new 2.7 admin lay­out.  You’ll need to change the url to your own, then copy and paste the code to your address bar and drag it into your book­marks bar.  That’s what I did in Safari, any­way.  If there’s a bet­ter way– please let me know.

    Great book­marklet! Here’s the stripped-down ver­sion I use:

    javascript:void(linkmanpopup=window.open(‘http://urlhere.com/wordpress/wp-admin/link-add.php?linkurl=’+escape(location.href)+’&name=’+escape(document.title),‘LinkManager’,‘scrollbars=yes,width=800,height=550,left=15,top=15,status=yes,resizable=yes’));linkmanpopup.focus();window.focus();linkmanpopup.focus();
