Add-On Releases - vbAnonymizer

vbAnonymizer

Description:
This is a hack to "anonymize" all outgoing links from your forum to prevent the referrer information from being sent.

Installation:
All the installation information is in the package.

What's different about this one?
Unlike the other anonymizing hacks, this one is integrated with vBulletin, meaning it shows a nice message along with your forum's headers and footers.

Changes:
2 Templates
6 Plugins
2 Files

Other Versions:
vbAnonymizer for 3.7 - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=184267

Look in the database, and see if the posts have the URL appended to them.

Works nicely since 2 months + on my forum.. thx for a great mod

The only issue i have is, when users edit their posts or even switch between WYSIWYG & normal mode, the URL gets appended multiple number of times..

Is there any way to limit the prefix url to occur only once before the link, however many times we edit the post?

I'll note down the bug as something to fix in the next version.

Weird, must be something to do with vBulletin matching up the post data with the cache. This can be solved using an SQL query. Please tell me which fields they are appearing in.

You look inside the tables, and find which fields the links are appearing in (ie. text).

if (preg_match_all("/(\<a href=YOURDOMAIN.COM")(.[^"]*)/i", $text, $matches)) 


Replace YOURDOMAIN.COM with a domain, for each domain you want to anonymize, add an 'OR'. For example:

PHP Code:

if (preg_match_all("/(\<a href=YOURDOMAIN.COM")(.[^"]*)/i", $text, $matches) OR preg_match_all("/(\<a href=DOMAIN2.COM")(.[^"]*)/i", $text, $matches)) 


Mhmm, it?s not working in the newest version, i think you have changed this part of code.

Can you say me, how i can use the anonym.to link with your script?

Thanks.

In the function plugin, you will need to find the place where it replaces (trust me, you'll see it), and change it.

I think it?s this part:

if (preg_match_all('/' . $anchor . '([^"]+)/i', $text, $links))

But how is must change it to use anonym.to?

Thanks for your help.
