Requirement: PHP 4.0 Compatible Server
1) Copy the files in the distribution file du.zip to a separate folder in your website. See a description of what each file does, if you are technically oriented.
2) These files:
dlinkconfig.php
config.phpneed Write permission (CHMOD 666). You may want to disable this permission after the script is properly configured.
3) Open in your browser "admindlinker.php" (default user & password are: admin & admin)
admindlinker.php:
Establishing the main domain where the script runs is essential. Also, changing the delivery password.
Input files:
Establish the URLs to be delinked. You have 10 different feeds that can be linked from your site.
Delinker cannot use all of its features in sites using Flash or Javascript code. Plain HTML sites are optimal.
If you want to Delink RSS feeds, which are legal, easily available and frequently renewed, use the RSSFeeder module (included) or any external RSS fetcher.
As in the example above, you can use:
yourdomain.com/delinker/zfeeder.php?zfcategory=news
yourdomain.com/delinker/zfeeder.php?zfcategory=SEO
and other feed categories.
4) Link from your website to:
./delinker/enter.php. It will link to a page linking to the 10 delinked files.
You do not need to use all of the delinked files. To link to each of them, use:
./delinker/feed1.php?view=0
/delinker/feed2.php?view=1
/delinker/feed3.php?view=2
...
/delinker/feed10.php?view=9
You can also link to ./delinker/feed.php. Instead of providing links to the 10 delinked files, it will produce a single long file chaining the 10 delinked files. This increases the chance of getting a loading error. It also requires many resources from your server at a time.
Establish the Delinking type that you desire. An explanation of the delinking purposes is given in the Delinker website. Briefly:
Nofollow HTML Link: an instruction that tells search engine spiders no to follow the link. It avoids leaking PageRank to those linked from your site. Effective, unintrusive, simple. Few RSS owners would object to this.
Delinked anchor text: takes the URL out of the link. No visitors or PageRank are lost. Links become useless.
Complete Delinking (no link, no anchor text): same as above, without anchor text. The contents could be hard to understand.
Javascript Replace: The HTML link is replaced by Javascript code. It is another form to prevent PageRank leak.
Intermediate destination: (usually pub.php) Before landing in the target page, the visitors see an intermediate page. PageRank is concentrated in that intermediate page. You provide another opportunity for visitors to remember your site.
No Link Edition (it does nothing): For testing purposes.
Images - Change all by your own image: The images in the delinked pages are replaced. You have a chance to send a message to the visitors that land in the delinked pages. We suggest:

Image link: (usually Main Domain) Here you write the target address for those visitors who find your delinked pages thru the search engines and want to see your home page.
Word Substitution: this is a very simple way to change the delinked contents: to elude duplication and copyright issues, and to enhance the desired keyword density. Choose common words like "the", "in", "of", "a" or any other.
RSSFeeder
We used Zfeeder a popular but discontinued RSS feeder. It will capture news from other sites and feed them to your Delinker system. Once delinked, the feeds will provide fresh subject-specific contents to your site.
It comes with the Delinker package.
To install RSSfeeder:
- give "write" and "execute" attributes to subdirectory: cache
(either with your FTP client or with CHMOD 0777)- give writeable attributes to files in subdirectory: categories
- point your browser to http://your_domain/delinker/admin.php
- use these access data: User: admin - Password: admin
For config, we suggest to change the RSSfeeder URL, which is the same as the Delinker Main Domain. Also, change the password. You can use the same as for Delinker. Then, save settings. Do not change the other settings, unless you want to read the Zfeeder documentation.
The other options let you select feeds and categories.
If you want to add new categories you must copy a new .opml file to the categories directory. Use the admin.php file to add subcriptions to that category.
If you want to delete a category simply delete the category.opml file from the categories directory.

That is it. You will have permanent new contents, without leaking PageRank or letting visitors go easily out of your site.
