Link Anonymizer v1.02a & 1.03, 1.04, 1.05.3 & 1.10

Author: MarcoH64

vBulletin Version: 3.5.1

Warning: Version 1.02 might create double anonym links if you edit a post multiple times. Version 1.03 has been reported not to be working for some people. Please read posts in this thread if you plan on using this hack, until i had time to look into this.
v1.05 and higher should be the best versions
1.10 Is an updated version of 1.05.3 and is considered a stable release. Only version 1.10 will be supported now.

Description:
This Product will add a self configurable anonymising link to all external urls in posts.

Installation:
Install the XML-file as Product.

Configuration:
vBulletin Options->Link Anonymizer :

Local Addresses
Local addresses are not anonymized. If you leave this option blank, the value for vBulletin Options Cookie Domain will be used. Do not use a http:// prefix.

If you start the name with a dot (.mydomain.com) all server addresses ending with this will be considered local. If you want to add mulitple domain/servernames, seperate them by a single space.




Anonymizer (default: http://anonym.to/?)
Link to a anonymizer function. Use preceding / if needed. Other Usable Anonymizers:http://anon.free.anonymizer.com/

It is possible that there are still double links in the database from old versions. If you wish to remove these, run the following queries (make backup first!!):

SQL Query: (how to run queries (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18558))
update post set pagetext = replace(pagetext, "http://YOURANONIMIZERLINK/","");

[Nullifi3d]

I'm not exactly sure what this hack does. Is there anymore info?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

If someone post an external link in a post, it will prefix the link with an anonymising url. Like this if someone click on the link, it can not be traced back to your site.

[Nullifi3d]

Ok, I see what it does, but why is this good? seo or something?

[b6gm6n]

sorry dude doesn't work for me, using RC2, imported as product, edit settings, edited my local domain (.mysite.com) and made a test post with some http links in it...nope!

bbcode is on so is vb code, certainly looks like it's not working, i made a new thread and a reply still nothing, should expect some page (anonymizer) before we hit the target page? hmmm

-b6

[Chad F.]

^ yea I just tried and it doesn't work for me either. :(

[b6gm6n]

There's actually no "http://anon.free.anonymizer.com/" anywhere in your plugin code?? so i wonder where i have to alter the "$anonymurl" is there an option i've missed someplace within my ACP?

-b6

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Sorry, version 1.01 uploaded.

There was 1 setting (where you could set the anonymizing link) that had as Product vBulletin set, so it didn't end up in teh XML-file. Just do an overwrite install.

PS It is not needed that you fill in the local addresses, if nothing is set and nothing is set for the cookie address, the name of the server is used.

[b6gm6n]

cheers dude!

=-b6

[b6gm6n]

installed and it's either extreamly quick, or not working..are you supposed to see the anonymizing link/page before you enter the target link, it's seemingly flawless, just like clicking a normal link...cool!
(it's not working isn't it) :(

do i have to run some update counters for threads or sumink?
EDIT: tried that didn't work!

I'm sure i'll see the anon page first, but i can test my ref simply by typing (or clicking) www.tonee.com (which i did) and the site shows my referrer in the address bar...

anyways i cannot get it 2work...have i missed anything?

-b6

[Marco van Herwaarden]

You should already see it when hovering over a link.

Please check the following:
- You did install version 1.01
- Is the product/plugin active?
- Please post a screenshot of the Options page for Link Anonymizer

And PM me a link to a thread with an external link on your forum please (if needed please a test login)

[theArchitect]

Nice. Only one question. I am going to be putting some ads on my site and obviously these only work when the click through is registered. This hack won't affect this? i.e. it will only anonymize urls in posts and not every url on the forum.

[b6gm6n]

PM sent

-b6

[Abe1]

I created a hack that does the same but doesn't use an outside source. Look at my sig for the link. "Active Link Security Hack"

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Nice. Only one question. I am going to be putting some ads on my site and obviously these only work when the click through is registered. This hack won't affect this? i.e. it will only anonymize urls in posts and not every url on the forum.
It will only work on links in posts.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Can anybody else who installed version 1.01 confirm if it is working or not?

[Scooterpig]

It works ok for me although very slow to load up page, but when it does load up the address still shows the anon.free.anonymizer.com within the url of the page, dunno why..:(

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Thanks for the report.

Yes that is how this peticular anonymizer works. But it is only set as an example, you can change to any anonymizer you want. Others might also have better speed, i don't have much experience with the different anonymizer services.

Edit: Please click install ;)

So by selecting a different anonymiser would that then get rid of the link in the address bar, as I find this a bit annoying to have it there and makes it hard to copy/paste?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Try putting the following in your Anonymizer link:
http://anonym.to/?

[b6gm6n]

I haven't got a clue then why it's not working on my board, all is active, i've tested over and over, i have WYSIWYG on, vb code on, etc

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Updated with version 1.02, fixed problem of b6gm6n.

See change log in first post.

[Chad F.]

1.02 works fine for me, thanks alot!

[Marco van Herwaarden]

7-9-2005 v1.02a
- Fixed bug when handling generic local domain (starting with a dot '.'') Sorry for the many updates.

[b6gm6n]

sorted! cheers!

-b6

[Nullifi3d]

What is the purpose of making external links untraceable?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Well i don't know why people want to use it. ;)

(I guess they are hotlinking to other sites)

[Nullifi3d]

lol. i guess you could somewhat hide illegal activity doing this.

[b6gm6n]

Illegal? - ok so you wanna provide some privacy for your members when another member posts an external link from your forum, we all leave 'electronic' footprints in the cyber sand...but some would rather cover thier tracks (for whatever reason).

if you mean the posting of links to sites containing fine foul and birds to the gentry (examples below) then yes... personal & private habbit/hobby is bird watching i can tell you! :)

www.hugebills.com (http://www.americanbirding.org/)
www.touchmylongwebbedfeet.com (http://www.birdwatching.com/)
www.fingerlickingchicken.com (http://www.birdersworld.com/)

etc etc ;)

-b6

[Nullifi3d]

I wasn't implying that everyone is trying to hide illegal activities. Just replying to Marco's statement regarding hotlinking (which is illegal).

[Marco van Herwaarden]

I would call it unethical, but i doubt that it is illegal (might depend on your location).

[Chad F.]

Any chance you could update this for 3.5 Gold?

[Abe1]

Any chance you could update this for 3.5 Gold?

It works on gold.

[Chad F.]

It works on gold.

Not for me, the anonymous part at the beginning of the link repeats itself 4 times.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Haven't tried on gold yet, but will try to have a look today.

[RMS-Chef]

This has the same WYSIWYG editor issue as Active Link Security hack does/did.

When editing a post using Enhanced Editor, after the first edit it adds the "http://anonym.to/?" again and again each time you edit the post. Edit the post 4 times and you get:

http://anonym.to/?http://anonym.to/?http://anonym.to/?http://anonym.to/?http://network-tools.com/analyze

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Thanks this will put me on the right track to duplicate the problem and solve it. Expect an update tomorrow.

[RMS-Chef]

Awsome, thanks MarcoH64.
It's just wierd, post...it works great. Edit once, still works great. Edit again, and dup URLs are prefixed again and again on each edit.

[JoeLouie]

any chance of this being something that you can turn on and off for each forum?

[Nullifi3d]

any chance of this being something that you can turn on and off for each forum?I'm sure it could be added in future releases.

[C_P]

Nice, works like a charm! If anyone has any additional anonymiser links to add, they should reply here. This would allow others to use one of their choice for faster loading.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

New version released:
8-10-2005 v1.03

- Totally new way of doing this, on view instead of on write.

- Solved doubling the anonym link on edit

[Mikobu]

thanks, by the release... installing...

[Chad F.]

Hmm I'm still having the same problem, before it was adding http://anonym.to/? in front of every link 4 times. Now its gone up to 5.. :(

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Hmm I'm still having the same problem, before it was adding http://anonym.to/? in front of every link 4 times. Now its gone up to 5.. :(If you are viewing an old post, then this could be. The ink is already 4 times stored in the database, and is added 1 more time when viewing, see the queries in the top to resolve this.

Try making a new post (or edit an old one) and it shouldn't happen anymore.

PS Which plugins you have now for the product, and which ones are active?

[Chad F.]

It works fine when I make a new post. I ran those queries and it did not do anything, all the old links still have http://anonym.to/? in front of them 5 times.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Sorry no time now, but will later today post the exact query you will need to run.

[RMS-Chef]

When I installed 1.03 the system simply stopped working.
Tried overwrite, then uninstalled and reinstalled.
Currently on RC3.

EDIT:
Just updated to v3.5 Gold and still, the plugin just does not work for me.

Seems I have same issue after upgrade. I then added the following and seems to work anonym.to/? in the Local addresses are not anonymized section.

I am on 3.5.0, just installed this product, and it is not working at all...

[JohnBee]

Same here, uninstalled the old version, ran the queeries and installed 1.03 now nothing... :(

I don't think running the links through a public anonymizer will beat your other system, if there is any .htaccess of any kind the anonymizer will not process the link. Your last hack approach was good it simply needed some refinement where post editing took place in order to deal with duplicating the redirector code.

Hope you sort it out soon, as for myself I have put back the old system until its sorted out :)

Additionaly there was a =3.0.x privacy link MOD, it used the same principle as this one here and had no inherent problems with duplicate tags. Perhaps you could take a peek at the other KACK to see if you can't use the same approach for this hack :)

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Sorry guys i will try to have a look one of these days, but not much time now.

Looking at a 3.0 hack will not help, since the internals are really different.

I don't really understand why 1.03 shouldn't work for some people, it is working fine on my testboard.

[dasdingansich]

I noticed some strange behavior:

it works flawless when using the "insert hyperlink" feature, but when posting only the text "www.google.com" or "http://www.google.com" it wouldn´t render the anonymizer URL into until I edited the posting and saved again.

the problem ist, only few people actually use that button and just prefer to type away ... do you know any workaround?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

I actually never even tested the 'insert hyperlink'. I have just tested it with typing w ww.google.com on my testboard. Strange that it doesn't work.

I don't really have time to dig deep inot this right now, but i will try to find some time tomorrow or the day after.

Until then i will post a warning in the first post.

PS Since version 1.03 is adding the link when displaying a post, it shouldn't make a difference how you entered it in the first place, very strange. Try just doing a refresh, maybe the AJAX screen update when posting is not showing it.

[Catlover]

MarcoH64, strange, but fact: some links anonymized, some - not :( Links posted by some users - just direct links, but all links i posted - anonymized...i don't understand why it happens.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Any chance you could PM me some links of posts that are working and some that are not working?

PS If your board is closed, send also a test account.

[Chad F.]

I just re-installed the plugin again and like before it works on new posts etc. but now its not anonymizing links in old posts..

[dasdingansich]

btw, I had two ideas for new features:

- a setting for what kind of URL´s are anonymized.
like anonymize all kinds of pages like plain domains, folders, .htm, .php and so on, but don´t anonymze file links

- ability to turn it on / off on a per forum basis.
In my case I really only need it in one forum, and I definately can´t use it in another.

(one forum is called "politics", sometimes people are hotlinking sites we really don´t want visitors from. A totally different forum on the same messageboard is movie-related, and we need to be able to link .mov´s and to save them with right-click.)

[dasdingansich]

another suggestion:

I found out anonymizer.com sucks, it?s only free for a few clicks, after that I?m getting popups and ad pages, telling me I should subscribe. Right now I?m using www.anonym.to - seems to be free and easy!
also killing the referrer, but no proxy.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

New version v1.04, should fix the reported bugs.

Will wait to see if this is working good for everyone (did some more extensive testing this time). If all is ok, i will have a look at the feature suggestions.

@dasdingansich
You can configure what anonymizer you want to use, but maybe i should change the default if that one is too much limited.

[RMS-Chef]

I am back again to v1.2a
Sorry brother but v1.4, like v1.3 just does not work for me.
Again, I tried to first just overwrite. Then uninstalled the reinstalled v1.4 and it simply is not doing anything. I am on v3.5 Gold now.

v1.2a is perfect for me except for the WYSIWYG Editor issue.
I appreciate your efforts sir.

[Chad F.]

I installed 1.04 and..

- All of the old links are untouched by the anonymizer.

- Some of the links in new posts are anonymized and the rest have "http://anonym.to/?" in front of it 6 times.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Some of the links in new posts are anonymized and the rest have "http://anonym.to/?" in front of it 6 times.
This could still be left overs from 1.02, i promised you i would give you the exact SQL to fix it, but didn't have time for it yet.

If one of you who still have 1.04 installed would let me have a llok at their board, i could maybe figure out why it is not working for you. If you're interested, please pm me contact info.

OK MarcoH64, thanks again for your diligence.

Behavior for current 1.4
WYSIWYG:
-Working fine with WYSIWYG
-Editing issues seem fixed with WYSIWYG

Standard Editor:
-Does not prefix with anon properly if you only type the URL and have the board parse after you hit submit.
-Does work in standard if you click the add link button (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/12/3.gif)

Also a note, with your procedure for 1.2a, all links, even pre-existing links are prefixed with anon properly. With your current 1.3/4 method, pre-existing links created in WYSIWYG or in standard with the create link button are prefixed properly but regular typed URLs that were done in a standard editor do not seem to be prefixed after this install.

It seems to me that your original method works best, if you could iron out the Enhanced Editor issues with it. I would use 1.4 in it's current form if only I could force everyone to use WYSIWYG but that is a user option. My last couple posts reporting this as not working for me are because I had not reinstated the WYSIWYG editor on the board that I had disabled due to the v1.3+ issues. I am back to 1.2a right now and not missing WYSIWYG at this point as much as I thought I would. ;)

Hope I explained that clearly enough....I tend to ramble sometimes. ;)

No Go For Me :ermm:

[Chad F.]

What happened to Marco? :ermm:

[Computer_Angel]

1. Case sensitive bugs:
just detect URL tag, but no for url, URl, uRl, Url ...
when typeing like this no anonymizer anymore.
2. Just parsing the pattern
[ URL = "xxxxxxx" ] xxxxx [ / URL ]
no for
[ URL ] xxxxxx [ / URL]

New version v1.04, should fix the reported bugs.

Will wait to see if this is working good for everyone (did some more extensive testing this time). If all is ok, i will have a look at the feature suggestions.

@dasdingansich
You can configure what anonymizer you want to use, but maybe i should change the default if that one is too much limited.

I installed it but nothing seems to happen. :( Could someone tell me where I could have gone wrong?

[tokenyank]

Marco, this seems much more robust than this (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=98131&page=1&pp=15) one but I do not wish to use an external anon server like safeurl or whatever... Would/could this hack work using the links.php in the other hack for non-anon parsed url's?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

@tokenyank, i don't know, never looked at the other hack.

@Lord Brar
PM me MSN contact info and i will try to get in contact tomorrow.

[tokenyank]

In principal, it should work yeah? As safeurl works with a ?domain switch as does the other hack...

Hmm... I may play with it and find out for myself... Thanks anyway

Marco, this seems much more robust than this one but I do not wish to use an external anon server like safeurl or whatever... Would/could this hack work using the links.php in the other hack for non-anon parsed url's?
1.You can use links.php, just config your anonymous site to your site.
Ex: http://www.xxx.com/links.php?url=
2. The hack you said is which I don't like because It modified the class_bbcode.php code, so when you upgrade to new version --> need to hack again.

Just to confirm, it does work, though using the settings in the AdminCP did not do anything... Almost as if they weren't saving...

I modified the xml to reflect what anon service I wanted to use though and reinstalled and it works fine!

Thanks... Installed

[tokenyank]

Though this doesn't seem to effect links in sigs...

Does links in sigs parse differently than posted links? If so, can this be amended so that sig links are parsed through the anon service?

Ok, I take that back... It did work last night when I installed it but now it doesn't parse any links again... this is v1.4...

Looks like I have to go back to the file edit one! :(

[microzott]

hai marco, just installed your hack but i think i have found a mall bug:

if you put more than one external link on the same post, the anonymizer works only on the first, it's normal?

[D.Ilyin]

This is my solution for ver 1.04:
........

Well :) it works but for me only for new posts.....
and not work with link's:
[ url=http://www.xxx.xx]xxxx[ /url]
Can you fix it?
Thank's anyway :)

[bigmonay2k]

[tokenyank]

installed and tested...

tried typing in local and remote links as well as adding them via editor menu.

All links seem to work except for

http://domain.com

For instance, my domain, http://www.mumsonline.net will parse through the anon service if I use http://mumsonline.net instead

This seems to work retroactivly as the old links I've checked so far are parsing through the anon service.

Quick edit and Advanced edit doesn't seem to duplicate the anon code


So far, so good! Clicking install again! :D Let's just hope it stays working! ;)

[Marco van Herwaarden]

For instance, my domain, http://www.mumsonline.net will parse through the anon service if I use http://mumsonline.net insteadSet your local links to .mumsonline.net (mind the leading dot). You can also specify multiple domains as local.

[tokenyank]

There's a little problem when using <a name=""> </a> tag.
Forex: i have
<a name="gstoned_ep">G-Stoned [EP] (1995)</a>
and link to it on the same post:
<a href="#gstoned_ep">G-Stoned [EP] (1995)</a>
the likn is parsed and i get: http://anonym.to/?#gstoned_ep. Could this be fixed?

And one more thing. Is there any possibility to disable anonymizing on ed2k:// links?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

New version released:
9-11-2005 v1.05.2
- Added option to ignore certain protocols in the vBulletin Options (ie. ignore https, ftp, ....).
- Attempt to fix reported bug where an inline link (#.....) would also be anonymized


There's a little problem when using <a name=""> </a> tag.

HTML posting is enabled.
<a name="some_name"> </a> sets anchor in sertain place of page.

and link <a href="#some_name"></a> returns you to the anchor on the same page.

P.S. Thanks for the update, but links with # are still anonymized...

check ya pm

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Ok, it looks like it is caused by an error generated by the standard PHP function parse_url if you have an url in the form of: http://mymail@mymail.com:mypassword@www.mydomain.com

Will have a look today in why this is happening and how to prevent.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

New version 1.10 released
25.11.2005 v1.10
- Fixed a bug where some urls could lead to a parse error. Example of an url leading to this error:
http://mymail@mymail.com:password@www.mydomain.com
- Added new parameter to vB Options: Always anonimyze unparseble URLs

This is considered the stable and supported version. From now on all old versions are not supported anymore.

[croportal]

can i see demo of this, what this hack do?

[dan35]

installed! Thx!

[BiReL41r]

I'm not entirely sure what this hack. Does it prevent members from viewing the forum on Link Anonymizer sites or..?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

No this hack adds an Anonimyzer URL to all (external if set in Options) links, so that if a member clicks on a posted link, the linked site will not see your address as referrer.

[influence]

dont u think this will mess up adsense? because google do wants to know were clicks are coming from for that site to get paid

i would like to know if this will anonymize google adsense outgoing links. if so then I will pass on this hack then. Great hack though

[Marco van Herwaarden]

It will only work on links inside posts, so as long as your adsense is not inside the posts text, it will work. You can also set domains to exclude from anonymizing in the vB Options.

[RFViet]

So, If the http://anonym.to? slow down or die then the links in my forum doesn't work ???

[D.Ilyin]

So, If the http://anonym.to? slow down or die then the links in my forum doesn't work ???

no, all forum links absolutly free from anonym.to. You can just OFF this plugin or choose another site (for example safeurl.de)

[Rat]

The Meta Refresh in this Hack isn't harmless: http://www.url-hijacking.com/index_en.html

Meta refresh is (afaik) the only way to hide the referer but produces an 302.

So, if you wouldn't potential harm the linked page: dont use it (until (e.g.) google fixes this issue - and that may take a while)

A possible solution is to exclude the links.php (wich contains the Meta refresh) in the robots.txt to prevent indexing by SEs.

i've found a similar hack in a german board with the same problem, so i searched here for an alternative ...

and now decided to give it up to hide the referer, cause i didn't see really why i have to.

PS: that's not a critic pointed to the hack, just an information pointed Meta refresh... ;)

[Marco van Herwaarden]

I don't see what this got to do with this hack. URL Hijacking like described there is about links TO your site. What this hack does is nothing more then prefixing all OUTGOING links posted at your board with a configurable prefix. If this prefix is set to one of the sites that offer an anonymiser service it will just call that site. Standard vBulletin will anyway open external links in a new window, so i don't see what harm can be done. But ofcourse i don't know what each website that offer this service is doing.

[Tuan Ly]

Does this hack work correcly without any problem in vB 3.5.3 ?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Ihave not got any complaints about this hack not working for 3.5.3

[RFViet]

Can I just setup some specific forums to use this hack, not all forums ???

[Marco van Herwaarden]

No you can't set per forum.

[Nathan2006]

i've read a suggestion to use the google translator tool (with the options as en to en). such as: http://www.google.com/translate?langpair=en|en&u=

in front of the url in the anonymizer plugin.

any thoughts on this? do you guys feel it's as 'good' as using one of the free anon websites?

reason i ask is because several of my users' companies have most of the anonymizer websites blocked.

thanks!

[Crazy Serb]

All right, a problem.

When I quote a post with a url in it, it also adds the anonym.de prefix to the already prefixed url in the original post, thus repeating it twice in the quotes.

Or is that just me?

It should work like any other though, all that is done, is a string added in front of the real url.

My guess is that this maybe get corrupted by rewrite rules on your server. You could try to create a special (sub-)domain (pointing to the same server), maybe that would help.

Anyway to give a better educated guess, i would need to see real link, if you want you can sent them to me by pm.

I'm not much of a coder but that is my conclusion and it worked for me so if you want to try always backup your sql or you can upload this to your sql the exact same one i uploaded to my sql:cool:

then i'm afraid i'm not sure what the issue could be. i just don't see why or how this could pick only certain posts to parse incorrectly when all the others are done properly.

[Patria]

Looks like anonym.to is unreachable ... I recommend to replace anonym.to with anonym.ws.

[pedroenf]

It's working again.

I have version vb3.6.2 --- do I install the ver 1.10 of this mod and then overwrite the plugin using the xml from this post https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1083975&postcount=176 or

Do I only use the xml from the post and not use the mod file ver 1.10?

I'm confused.

Thanks in advance.

@YLP1: Just intall the file attached in this posting: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1083975&postcount=176

@all: Is there a hack that anonymizes the "homepage" link in the profile too?

i just created a dummy table "post_parsed" using phpmyadmin, then imported the product. Works fine now on 3.6.4

[jyajay]

I am using it on 3.6.3 and removed the <codes> part from the xml file which had the same effect. Works perfect for me, of course modifications are at your own risk. ;)

[HolyKiller]

Perfect MOD, but can u integrate "auto-anonymization" in Signature area ?

I used to use this add-on, it was disabled. I mean, I wasn’t using it for a while. I have upgrade my forum to 3.6.5 version and removed the add-on from the system, however all of the links remained as “http://www.cithiz.com/redirect-to/?redirect=www.123456672.com”. How can this happen since I completely removed from the system and what should I do to cancel this entirely?

Thanks.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

If i remember correct, then this is only changed in the cached version of a post.

You can try to solve this by running the following query:

TRUNCATE postparsed;

[Cithiz]

I’m sorry; I couldn’t exactly understand what I need to do.



Let me make this clear: This add-on is not installed right now. I removed it. But all of the links seems as it was shown in the sample and remains to be so. I tried to reinstall and terminate the process but I didn’t work either. Then I uninstalled entirely… the same result.



When I shut down the entire Plug-in system from the Vbulletin options, it works as a brand new Cadillac, but then the other add-ons don’t function. All of the posts including the older ones still keep “redirecting”.

[Cithiz]

Somebody help me?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Please see my previous response.

[Cithiz]

I see but I didn't understand, what I need to do. please tell me again more basicly. sorry..

[Marco van Herwaarden]

You can try to solve this by running the following query:


SQL Query: (how to run queries (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Database_queries#Quick_instructions_for_ running_your_own__MySQL_queries))
TRUNCATE postparsed;

Run that query.

[Cithiz]

Query
TRUNCATE postparsed

Affected Rows: 0 (0.0124s)

nothing changed?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Which version did you have installed?

[Cithiz]

Which version did you have installed?

V 1.10 :(

[TheWhite]

i have board version 3.6.5 which version of this mod should i install and how come this mod is giving so many problems? I'd like to install it but i'm afraid :(

[darkman]

Installed and working fine on vB version 3.6.5

Simply opening up product-mh_anolink.xml in Dreamweaver and changing the two instances of post_parsed to postparsed worked for me.

I im@gine notepad would work as well :)

Doing the same using wordpad solved the product import for me also on 3.6.4

[upirate]

so if I change the anomyizer link to "somepage.php"

all user posts with external links will first go to somepage.php before they go to that outside link ?

thanks

[upirate]

ok i installed it 2 questions:

1). I dont want the redirect message to show ("please wait while your page is being redirected"

2). I want to put in a different anonymizer link.

thanks guys!

[Marco van Herwaarden]

so if I change the anomyizer link to "somepage.php"

Yes.

1). I dont want the redirect message to show ("please wait while your page is being redirected"
The redirect message is shown by the external link you have set for Anonymizer, not by this modification

2). I want to put in a different anonymizer link.
See first post in this thread.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

A vB 3.6 version is now released: Link Anonymizer and Censor (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=143615)

Now with a new Whitelist/Blacklist Censor and the option to also anonymize PM's and signatures

[7lanet]
