I am trying to figure out how to add the Page Rank and Alex Rankings to the Views Fields. I assume this can be done since the /rankings page can sort by these.

I haven't loooked lately since my PC crashed and I don't have a test site at the moment, but didn't the CCK field definitions open them up to VIews?

Issue summary: View changes

Hi,
Now that we have released Weblinks 7.x then I suggest that a new feature would only be added to 6.x if -
(a) it is also relevent to 7.x
(b) it has been added to 7.x first
(c) the change/patch can be ported with relative ease
(d) someone actually asks for it/wants it in 6.x

The pralexa and google rank sub-module has been discontinued in Weblinks 7.x so the request to make the ranking fields available in view is probably in the 'not going to do' category. Gerhard, do you agree?

I'm not Gerhard, but I agree. Page ranks are pretty close to useless any more.

Gerhard, do you agree?

Yes, I agree to all your points.

But it would be a good idea to update the 'Other modules' section on the Web Links homepage. Most of the mentioned modules there are only relevant to D6 or are not even available for D7. Or at least flag them accordingly.

Hi Nancy - sorry I did not include you in the greetings list ;-)

OK it's good that with my points (a) - (d) we have a basis now for deciding what we work on for 6.x

Yes, Gerhard you are right about the other modules section. The easiest thing would be just to add "(D6 only)" or something like that, to the appropriate modules named there.

I have updated our project page accordingly.
Closing this issue now.
