Installed i needed this thanks

Nice!!, perhaps u should add phrases for having it in several languages!!

INSTALLED and running like a charm! :D

Ok... here's the problem I'm having (and its becoming an issue because its affecting some sponsors).

If this url is posted -

[x]http://www.b.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=oneshot&Produc t_Code=BB-IIA&Category_Code=BB[x]

It opens a page with:

[x]http://www.b.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD[x]

Notice everything after the & is lost...

But the redirect page says ...

You are now leaving a.com and being redirected to http://www.b.com/merchant2/merchant....tegory_Code=BB in 1 seconds.

Soooooooo... its storing the code right since it seems to know the whole URL but its trimming the URL after the &

It's redirecting everything fine on my dev board. Have you installed the latest version?

Yup... unless you re-uploaded 2.2 at some point without updating the version.

Does the link I posted work on your site? or does it strip everything after the &?

thanks, looks good

Works Absolutely fine :D this has increased my revenues too lol :D

Yes, on a fresh 3.6.4 installation, it works well. It doesn't strip anything off the URL.

Well... my installed version says 2.2 but I uninstalled it anyways and reuploaded the files and reinstalled the product - everything seems to be good now.

Odd.

Glad it's working for you now though! :D

G'day Dismounted,

So would I be right in saying that if someone was on my site and spamming urls' to their business etc, that this hack sends them to where I want the url to take them?

Does the url they place in the post also stay the same (visibly) or does that change automatically (to something we set).

Regards

Reggie

No, all this hack does is prevent referrer headers being sent. For example, RapidShare collects referrer information.

Hi all,

Still shows reffers from the forum v3.6.1 in statistics by Google analytics. Can someone make solution to hide from it too?

Thanks in advance.

This hides your site from OUTGOING links, not INCOMING referrers.

Dismounted,

Thanks for answer. Btw, here is another question: Can i use redirector.php outside vbulletin folder? (i've already tried but just a blank screen there).

Thanks in advance, Alex

Hrm... ok. I think I know why I've been having issues and had less and less complaints.

If I let the redirector redirect me then it works OK... but if I click the link instead of waiting 3 seconds then it screws up the link.

No you cannot. Redirector.php requires vBulletin globals and templates to work.

Hi,

i would love to use this hack, but is there a way to apply the anonymizer function only to specific (private) forums ?

Hi Dismounted,

I have been using this hack for a while now Extended Signature Limits

The problem is, that I recently got a spammer who is adding lots of external links in their signature and that hack is only seeing that as my local address as www.my-site.com/redirector.php and allowing members to add anything they want :(

Is there anyway around this?

Maybe to turn off redirector.php in the signature only?

Thank you for any help :)

installed it, and its working fine..
thanks a lot of the great addon..

To turn it off in signatures, edit the plugin 'Add Anonymizer Prefix (Part 2)' and replace the whole plugin with:

Hi, Thanks for your reply.

I have replaced the code in part 2 of the plugin manager but all the links are still
directed to redirector.php

I have rebuilt the signature cache but no luck :(

When editing signatures, do the links have the redirector.php prefixed?

Hi,

When I edit a signature that has the redirector.php showing in a thread and then go to edit the signature there is only the main URL and not the redirector.php added to it.

Thanks for your reply :)

Hey Dismounted,

I'd love for this hack to have the ability to select which sites/links you want to anonymize as there's only a few I need it for. Would this be possibly integrated in a future release? Thanks.

It should not be prefixing them, have you tried clearing your browser's cache?
No, I highly doubt I will integrate this feature into a future release. Although you can tweak it to only anonymize certain URL's.

Can you tell me how to do this?

In the plugin 'Anonymizer Function', find:
Replace With:
Replace YOURDOMAIN.COM with a domain, for each domain you want to anonymize, add an 'OR'. For example:

I get no redirect page or message at all.....

Installed..

How about adding nofollow tags ?

Thanks for the info, Dismounted.

I have applied what you suggested but for some reason it won't anonymize the link at all - it doesn't acess the "referrers.php" file and just acts like a normal link.

BTW, I don't know if it makes a difference or not but if you try to enter: http://www.YOURDOMAIN.COM you'll get errors like this:

So I can only do it as you mentioned above, but again, it won't anonymize the link.

Any other suggestions? ty

Hi Dismounted,

Yep I have also reinstalled my pc since then.

Still no luck tho :(

Here is a screenshot of what I have added which you said

Thanks

You need to put a backslash '\' behind each and every slash.
It should be anonymizing only the posts then. I can't find anything wrong with the code.

I have a curious question.

The program works fine except when linking to certain sites.

When a links to some of these specific sites are posted on our board...if someone tries to "click through" they get this error meesage.

http://www.techsure.com/temp/du3.gif

The links are good, but it's only when forwarded by the vbAnonymizer
that the error occurs. :confused:

It's no biggie, but I would like to know why and if there is a "workaround".

Thanks in advance. :)

You are using an old version of the hack (I think). Do a full uninstall and install again.

v2.2 doesn't seem to work for Safari... still sends the refer (as http://www.forums.com/forum/redirector.php?url=%68%74%74%70%3a%2f%2f.....).

I've hacked around this for now (by forcing Safari users to go through anonym.to instead), but I'd be interested in a better solution.

Dismounted, thanks for all your efforts and feel free to contact me if you need someone to test with Safari or other Mac browsers.

Thanks...that fixed it. :) :up:

Yeah I did that. I just copied your code and replaced the yourdoman.com part only - I left everything else as is.

It's supposed to send the URL's like that. Maybe Safari can't handle HEX-encoded URL's.
