Customizing node links

By themoebius on 26 Apr 2008 at 16:49 UTC

In node.tpl.php this is the standard code for the links at the bottom:

<?php
  if ($links) {
    print $links;
  }
?>

I've seen a few examples that use regular expressions to modify the value of $links, but really, I'm wondering where $links is formed in the first place.... Can I write a template.php function to override that so I can put it together myself? Where can I find the default code that does this so I can use it as a starting point?

Thanks.

Since Drupal 5 you can now theme the links using the theme_links() function. Add it to your themes template.php and whilst in the foreach() loop, check for certain links and if you get a match, modify them.
