Overview
The DOE: OLE Extension brings the ability to link to external URLs to Fantasy Grounds in the form of OLE Links. OLE Links can be manually selected and triggered by the GM.
OLE Links are accessed via the DOE: OLE OLE List and GM-created MiniLists, lists of OLE Links able to be manipulated almost the same as any other Fantasy Grounds list of links.
OLE Links can be used in Story and Notes Entries via the use of MiniLists which can be linked via the Link Paragraph Type. MiniLists can even be placed on Maps and Images as Map Pins. Basically, almost anywhere where you can use a Link in Fantasy Grounds you can use a MiniList.
GM's can share MiniLists with Players.
A screenshot is provided.

Downloading The Extension
This Extension and its accompanying Documentation can be downloaded from the links at the bottom of this post.
Loading The Extension
This Extension is loaded exactly like all other Fantasy Grounds Extensions - by first copying the .ext file to the Extensions Folder under the Fantasy Grounds Folder and then re-starting Fantasy Grounds. If the Extension is compatible with the currently installed version of a given Ruleset it will be displayed in the Extensions List for that Ruleset and can be loaded by clicking on the Checkbox next to the Extensions name.
If the Extension has large red 'X' next to its name in the Extension List then the Extension or an Extension that this one is dependent upon is not compatible with the chosen Ruleset. Make sure that you have downloaded and installed the latest copy of this Extension and any Extensions this one is dependent upon.
When Fantasy Grounds Updates
After a Fantasy Grounds version update you should verify that all Extensions (not just this one) have been either updated themselves or verified by the Extension author that they work with the new version of Fantasy Grounds. If you have any issues with Fantasy Grounds after an update then it is best to disable all Extensions and then re-enable them one by one until the issue re-appears.
