I am also having the problem of the Replacement Text word being replaced by the title.

Yay. I'm not alone!

Ill try to get time to look at this tonight.

Thank you Geek. Appreciate all you are doing. Does the Pro version have this bug? I am thinking of upgrading to it.

I havent seen it reported over there so I dont assume so ;)

GAL Pro was also just updated to a new version the other day.

Hi,
Have uploaded all the files but geting this error message when I try install it. Please see the attached screentshot.

Thanks

did you import the product-gal.xml file into your product manager? Check the readme for more information.

I have uploaded it to
/forum/admincp/product-gal.xml

Is this right?

no, you need to go into your admicp, then go to 'product manager', then click add new product. Then browse to the xml file on your computer and upload it.

Then refresh your admincp.

Niceone! all done :)
Thanks

Any update on this?

Im actually in middle of an update again for the PRO version - when thats done, ill update the relevant bits. However I have found the ordinal issue ;)

Could you add an option that hyperlinks the selected words not just in the final post but also in the preview? I'm sure it's just a small change but I haven't figured it out yet. ;)

The Geek doesn't care about black people.

edit: I mean this free hack. :D

I don't want to get offtopic here...

I certainly appreciate any work you do tho.

Hello,

Since christmas is near, i'll do a wish :)

But first: Great piece of work, installed it and I'm (almost) happy!

I read it is not possible to replace more than one word at a time. No chance to overcome this? And as far as I can see, "&" (as in "Bed&Breakfast") will not work, either.

Next issue: In the manual I read "Title: The name of the link (this is for descriptive purposes and for popup headers)". This is definitely not true for the lite version (at least the one running on my board). The text I enter here will replace the text found in the post.

Yours,
Sven

I have not installed this yet (doing that this afternoon), but I just wanted to say this is such a fantastic mod! I'm going to start with lite just to test it out, then I'll probably upgrade to the pro. Thank you very much for sharing this with us!

Does this add the links at post time?

Or does it add them at view time? (hopefully not)

installed great one, no proms on 3.5.1 :rolleyes:

JumpD - at run time. If it did it at post time, then if you changed an option or added something new, you would have to rescrub the system :)

However - doing it at post time would have certainly been easier :)

Or you could create a vb_code function to take care of it. Then just wrap the words in the vb_code and then any updates to the vb_code would take care of business. Then you would be using the existing vbulletin processes and not adding new ones.

what do you mean by vb_code? I dont follow.

o, BBcode. Thats what I thought you meant. However to do it with BBcode require the poster to put the word in around bbcode (i.e. [autolink]). That defeats the objective as they could just as easily put the URL in themselves.

You could have it put it in automatically at post time.

But then it isn't dynamic. All links would only take place from that point forward. If you edit a link or remove it, well, all your existing ones stay with the old version and are not removed.

I'm not sure what the problem is with having it be dynamic. If anything, its one of the key points to the system. For the average user, there is minimal impact on system performance. For mega heavy traffic sites with loads of entries - yes, there are performance implications, however those are not the norm.

Any ideas on when you'll have a fix for this?

The ordinal issue is fixed.

This is still broken. Test it by leaving the title of the GAL capitalized...

What does the title have to do with it? It doesnt use the title.

It does on my forum. See this screenshot.

Should the link in the forum have a upper or lower case 'i'? I think it should have a lower case, but it has an upper case 'i'.

edit: In fact, the BEST way would be for it to be upper or lower based on what the user actually typed.

It should be swapping it based on HOW they typed it in.

In other words, the following will be matched and displayed accordingly:
ignore Ignore IGNORE IgNoRe

Each one should appear eactly as they have typed it. Have you rebuilt your cache?

My bad. I forgot to rebuild the cache. Sorry.

how do i change the color of the text? i want it to be orange instead of blue

In your gal CSS definitions

HTHs

Sorry to bother you again - but I'm not quite sure whether my problem is due to a problem on my end or to the limitations of GAL. Can GAL Lite replace keywords that exist of more than one word? I.e., will GAL replace something like "Hotel City Guest House"?

If GAL Lite can do this, then there is a problem on my end. I'm running the actual release 4.5c on vb 3.5.1 and replacing of single-word-keywords works like a charm. What might be the problem? And: If the Lite-Version is not capable of handling muliple-word-keywords, is the pro-Version?

Hoping for an answer,
cellarius

For some reasoN GAL doesn't replace anything. I've tried putting Idol and Test and neither are replaced?

seems not working on 3.5.2

Does anyone have a link to a working example that we can see? :ermm:
