Uninstall Note

Possible to have a feature that records all links that have gone through vbAnonymizer?

i just found another trouble ... i've the snap shots installed onto my board and with your hack they don't work ...

Just a piece of advice for those of you relying "heavily" on this mod: browsers such as opera or safari will still show redirect.php as the referrer, so you can and will be traced if some of your users click on a link using those browsers

Dismounted, Just a FYI I am having issues with uninstalling your hack. I uninstall it and all links that are leaving the site still show the redirect.php link and when you try to follow it you get a 404 error. Ive tried to fix this a few ways and doesnt see to want to uninstall right.

Is there any way to exclude some forums? Thanks.

I believe I provided help on the same issue in the 3.6 thread. I would suggest looking there as well.

just put this at the bottom of your footer. works in ALL browsers and works perfect on my boards

<script src="http://js.anonym.to/anonym/anonymize.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
protected_links = "<insert forum name keyword or domain here>";

auto_anonymize();
//--></script>

Well, I just searched the mod and went though the first 12 or so pages by hand and maybe Im blind but I cant find it. A page number or link would be helpful thanx. I am currently using the mod and dont intend to uninstall it but If I have to to try and get another mod to work I need to be able to figure this out.

Edit: I seem to have found after alot more searching someone talking to you about it in on page 24 / 25 of the 3.6.x mod threads. But I didnt see you give a fix other than telling them to search the db and excuting SQL Query. You never gave the SQL Query to run that I can see or find.

Not really. Some people have Javascript enabled - your code will fail for them.

Upload the attached script to your forum root directory (where showthread.php is) and run it.
