Anonym.to URL Redirector

[The M.I.P.]

This tiny modification adds a redirector like http://anonym.to/? to external (non local) URLs. External links open in a new browser window, local ones open in the same window.
Have a look on the Active Link Security (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=70684) modification which does pretty much the same.

Use the patch below to apply the needed changes to your includes/functions_bbcode.php.

To apply it manually, open your includes/functions_bbcode.php and search for "function handle_bbcode_url".
Replace the lines beginning with "-" inside the patch with those beginning with "+" (don't include the "+/-").

{Now switch into debug mode by adding a line $debug = true; to your includes/config.php.

Go into your vBulletin Options in your administration control panel (AdminCP). Choose an appropiate setting group (e.g. "General Settings").

Add a new setting (you need to be in debug mode for this) for your URL redirector:
Varname: urlprefix
Title: URL Prefix/Redirector
Description: URL Prefix like http://anonym.to/?
Default: http://anonym.to/?
vBulletin Default: No

Save the new setting, check if it appears in your vBulletin Options (again, save it), remove the debug mode line in your config.php and you're done.

this is a known hack released by time to time... seems that nobody is willing to have a real website,...lol

this is a known hack released by time to time... seems that nobody is willing to have a real website,...lolYep, but I got too many requests for this **** by users in my forums, so I decided to post it here.

[Blam Forumz]

Its been done...

I am still confused about the concept of this hack. Does it block the originating website from being tracked?

I don't care about different releases, it's about making the effort to share something.

Nice job, keep it up.

Thanks for the post.

Think there is a small typo in the source you posted. making local links also be run through the anonymizer:
+ if (stristr($righturl,$vboptions['bburl']))
+ {


Should be:
+ if (stristr($rightlink,$vboptions['bburl']))
+ {
