Ringlink is a free webring system that can host 1 or several hundred webrings. It is currently the most feature rich of all available webring programs, and provides the highest level of support!
Principal new features are:
Built-in routine for listing the rings on a system.
Publicly available tool for searching a ring.
Template based customization of the output (previous template files have been exchanged for 'real' templates).
The current number of member sites can be displayed on the ring homepages.
Important Note: Before starting an upgrade, make sure that Perl version 5.005 or higher is available on the server.
