Auto Code ALL Links
 

This mod involves editing a PHP file from vBulletin.

open the includes/functions_newpost.php

Find
And replace with
What this will do is make any link such as http://google.com appear like this:

Reserved

NOTE: You can still make clickable URL's you just have to use the [url] tag. It just doesnt auto do the urls anymore.

Hey nice work, I can see this being very useful on a fair few sites.

Thank you for this mod.

p.s. I guess this needs to be moved to the Template Modification forum

And where do you see any template modified here? I'll consider using this mod later, thanks!

Nice idea, SiK xGODx. It's not something I need at the moment but I'm sure plenty others will find it useful. :)

Installed!

just a suggestion - wouldn't it be tidier to use NOPARSE rather than CODE tags?

then http://www.google.com = http://www.google.com

awesooooooooooome .. thanks aloooooot

i like the code tags because i have a download site and it makes the downloads stick out more

and ya if staff thinks this should b in template mods feel free

Great idea,subscribe first,may be installed later,not need it for now maybe later.

great and thanks for this... ;)

Sorry but i dont see any practicality in this hack when you can already disable urls from being parsed using other hacks that do not require code edits.

Good job all the same just dont find it practical. Sorry.

Maybe this will be usefull for me. Installed. :)

today i saw live links in my board :D he used like this :
[url=http://link here.com]live link[/url*

is there anyway to fix this too ? thanks

same problem

Put [url in the filtered bad words?

You can still have "live" links. The purpose of this mod is to keep most links coded. This is not to eliminate all live links.

A fix you should make:

It attempts to put the [code] tag around url's in the SHOUTBOX as well. make it so it doesn't do this would be greatly appreciated!

Yes but some forums want that. It may possibly be for privacy reasons? If they stop clickable links, the website they link too cannot easily track their location before that let them know of that site. Its a very common method for illegal sites and sites who just wish to remain unkown.

Nice... Is there a way to keep it specific to a specific forum/subforum only?

did u still this iv seen this post a diff website about 3months ago

Hi , i change the url to code but does n't work curretly :(

i cant finde these cod?!!!!!!

would like this feature also

Thanks

meh this is good and sucks at the same time.. cuz if u add more then one url u going to have 10 code boxes.. should be better to include all url's in the same code box :)

Last Way Just Can Put Code Tag Near Every URl And Cant Code Multi Urls Near Like It :

http://www.google.com
http://www.google.com
http://www.google.com
http://www.google.com

If You Want To Code Links Like That To This:

Just Do It :

Replace This :

With This :


And After This :

Put This Line :

i did this but it still codes each link separately

Sorry , Post Edited !
I Forgot To Put One Line ;):D .

Nice idea

thnx again...

great thanks a million, it works a charm

Would be great if this was developed a little more. If members put their own code tags around the url it gets double coded :(

anyone know what the code would be to only do the change on certain forums?

Within those specified forums the urls should have the [code] tags. Any other forum should have the default [url].

I imagine it would be something using IF and ELSE but I'm still a noob.

nevermind

Is it possible to make this only happen on a certain extension? for example if it was a .mp3 it would automatically code? If it is possible, this would rock as I could use it to auto embed mp3 files (as I have the [mp3] bb code :D :D

sorry, i'm new in vB, where can i find and edit "includes/functions_newpost.php"

This is a file uploaded when you first installed vbulletin. If you were to search for it on your server it would be located within your forum under the includes foler.

not working for me . each link goes separately :(
