You can see how I'm testing it and see if you can get anywhere:

PHP Code:

    $msg = 
    '
    [quote=DeanC]
    adsfasd
[high]    * Dean C tesats [/high]
    lala
    [quote=Bob]
[high]    * Dean C testss again [/high]
    [/quote]
    asdfadsf
    [/quote]
    
[high]    * Dean C RAWRs [/high]
    ';
    $mepattern = '#[\r\n\t]+(/me[\s]{1}([^\r\n]+))#i';
    preg_match_all($mepattern, $msg, $matchess);
    foreach($matchess[1] AS $mekey => $mematch)
    {
        $pattern = str_replace(' ', '[\s]{1}', $mematch);
        $pattern = str_replace('/me', '\/me', $pattern);
        if(preg_match('#\[quote=(.*?)\].*' . $pattern . '.*\[\/quote]#ims', $msg, $finalmatches))
        {
            $user = $finalmatches[1];
        }
        else
        {
            $user = 'User';
        }
        $msg = str_replace($mematch, '<b>* ' . $user . ' ' . $matchess[2]["$mekey"] . '</b>', $msg);
        unset($pattern, $finalmatches);
    }    
    echo nl2br($msg);

Thanks for working on this one, Dean. Was a favorite for our members.

Am ready to test as soon as you have something you want us to try!

when my members post links that have http://me in it - such as http://members.com - it replaces with their name - http://usernamembers.com

I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but, I found an issue using this plugin... When posting a link to http://www.yoursite.com/member.php?u=123455

The /me in the URL gets parsed as BBCode.

It was breaking some links on my site. Just a note for you to maybe look into.

installed RC 1 thx!

[Boofo]

Dean, are you ever going to fix this, buddy?

Try quoting it.

[Andreas]

An idea for the Quote Issue:
Hook: bbcode_create

PHP Code:

$this->tag_list['option']['quote']['callback'] = 'handle_external';
$this->tag_list['option']['quote']['external_callback'] = 'me_quote_handler';
$this->tag_list['no_option']['quote']['callback'] = 'handle_external';
$this->tag_list['no_option']['quote']['external_callback'] = 'me_quote_handler';

if (!function_exists('me_quote_handler'))
{
    function me_quote_handler(&$parser, $message, $username)
    {
        if ($username)
        {
            $message = preg_replace('#^(([ \t]|\[[a-z]+[^\]]*\])*)/me[ \t](.*)$#Uim', '<b><font color=red>* ' . $username . ' $3</font></b>', $message);
        }
        else
        {
            $message = preg_replace('#^(([ \t]|\[[a-z]+[^\]]*\])*)/me[ \t](.*)$#Uim', '& #47;me $3', $message);
        }
        return $parser->handle_bbcode_quote($message, $username);
    }
}

Take the other code out or use this with it?
