Outputs your blogroll links as a page or a post. Add the text <code></code> to a page or post and it will output your blogroll links organized by category heading.
In v2.1, two additional configuration options are available from the options page. These are:
<ul>
<li>
Suppress the category display. You may find this useful if you want to move your links to their own page, but you the blogroll categories at your site aren’t meaningful to visitors (or search engines.)
</li>
<li>
Change the display order of links. You can choose a primary and secondary order. Options here include Link ID (this id is internal the wordpress database and generally corresponds to the order the link was added into wordpress), Name (alphabetical), Address (the site URL), or rating.
</li>
</ul>
N.B.: This plugin doesn’t deal well with categories with parent links.
It’s based heavily on Dominic Foster’s original plugin which no longer works as of WordPress 2.3. <a href="http://www.websitehostingiq.net/blogroll-page-plugin/" rel="nofollow ugc">The original plugin is available here.</a>
<h3>Important Note</h3>

Live Blogroll will make your blogroll livelier. It will show a number of ‘recent posts’ for each link in your Blogroll using Ajax.
When the user hovers the mouse above the link, RSS feed from the site is automatically discovered and a number of recent posts is shown dynamically in a box.
Live BlogRoll uses internal caching for feed discovery and WordPress caching for RSS feeds to make sure everything is smooth for the user.
The looks of the hover box are fully customizable with CSS, and the position is editable in the options.
