Show Thread Enhancements - Title Tag Fetcher (Auto Replace URL with Titletag)

Hi there.

Since I needed a new URL Autotext Generator, I always loved the prework of Jafo232 and his Replace URL's With Page Title.
I just did some modifications on this Mod and for some forseeing mistypings, I also leaned out the checking of the "www" if given.

For those who don't know that mod it's quite simple:
If you post an URL in the Forums, this Mod just loads the <title>XXXXXX</title> out of the linked website.

The title won't be read if the following conditions occur:

• The linked page simply has no <title>-Tag
• The page is down or the <title>-Tag is not being found within the first 60 seconds
• The <title>-Tag is not being found within the first 1000 lines of code.

Installation:
Just import the XML via the ACP and thats all.

Uninstall:
Just kill it out of your ACP.

Hi,

I am trying to find a mod like this one for VB v4.1.5

Someone referred me to this mod but when I tried to import the product I got an error message that said the product was not compatible with v4.1.5 and it wouldn't allow the import.

Any suggestions of a compatible mod?

EDIT - Have now read all the posts above and see how to make it import.

Did you ever get it to work on editing posts?


Thanks,
Dale.

Open up the .xml and change:

maxversion="x.x.x"

To:

maxversion=""

It works just fine in 4.1.5

I can confirm that this works in version 4.1.7; I just installed it today.

Make sure you edit the "maxversion" like everyone else said!

Honestly, there's no reason that this SHOULDN'T work on any version of vBulletin....unless they change the bbcode for some reason :P

As stated in previous posts, you would just need to edit (or remove):

    <dependencies>
        <dependency dependencytype="vbulletin" minversion="3.6.0" maxversion="4.0.0 alpha 1" />
    </dependencies>

To work on vBulletin 4

It works with 4.1.8

Thankyou

Anybody know the plugin which makes you wait for few seconds before taking to external sites

hi, install this product in Vbulletin 4.1.10 and earlier work, but suddenly stopped working and when I changed the title only shows the name of the page.

I noticed in 4.x that is you use the WYSIWYG editor it doesn't work but that is because that editor automatically puts the [url] bbcode around the link before you submit it- so the mod never really gets a chance to change the title since it thinks you have chosen your own title.

Yes, I noticed that the editor always I have for everyone in the "normal" (not WYSIWYG), another thing, when I put the URL in the title instead of leaving it out is the name of the web : play4trophies therefore think it might be a problem in some settings I have.

want a user to access my forum and check it out?

BirdOPrey5 Since I discovered what the problem is, if users do not get them registered in the permissions can not view the contents of the issues this product just substitute the name will link to the web, so that functions properly unregistered users should be able view the contents of the issues, and could change that, that part of the code should be modified?

by the way, you speak Spanish?
