On the main page it would be useful if it showed only the categories with sites under them. Showing all the categories can cause Google and other SEs to give your directory a PR of 0!

I agree from a user perspective, empty categories should be simply removed until they are needed. Google ranking a page low that is 99% identical to others found in the same site, and has almost no unique text on it is understandable. I'd suggest you either remove top level categories that are empty, or put some sites in them.

I tried to remove the top directories but I have to remove all the sub-categories first which is A LOT of work... Is there a smarter way?

Determine the number for the top category you want to remove..
So if the link points to /directory/19.html , then it's category #19 you want to remove.

Using PHPMyAdmin, or mysql command line, delete it's sub categories ...

delete from phplinks_categories WHERE PID = X ;

where X is the category number, 19 in this example

Then finally, delete the category itself

delete from phplinks_categories WHERE ID = X ;

Hello Duane!
This really helped me save a lot of time!
I just made a small paypal donation to your project!

Let me tell you that I modified the sites listing because I wanted the outbound link to be like: http://www.freshcoffeeshop.com and not sth based on out.php?...

This way if you exchange links the other website can easily check if you still have a link back to them.

Unfortunately you loose every ability to tack clicks this way.

Keep up the good work!!!

Thank you very much...

You may not know, but this is the the 2nd reincarnation of this site. The old one, had a forum thread about presenting a plain URL, like you are now, but using java script to count the outbound clicks. So I know it's possible. I'll try again to find something helpful on that topic

I guess the other alternative is to simply remove "Whats Popular" from the top & bottom navbar files in the theme directory.
