Miscellaneous Hacks - Word Links FREE (Turn words into links) by BOP5

Brought to you by BirdOPrey5 / Qapla.com

Thank You for voting this June 2011 Mod of the Month!!!

The purpose of this mod is to automatically turn keywords or phrases you specify into links. You set a list of keywords and a list of URLs to link them to and let the mod do the rest.

This is the FREE Version. It allows you to auto-link words in:

• Posts/Threads
• Private Messages
• Visitor Messages
• Social Groups

The GOLD Version is available at Qapla.com It allows auto-linking words in:

• Posts/Threads
• Private Messages
• Visitor Messages
• Social Groups
• Picture Comments
• Blog Entries
• Blog Comments
• CMS Articles
• CMS Comments

Live Demo at Qapla.com.

There are many options as you can see in the screenshot. You can choose to include the "nofollow" attribute, choose to open links in a new tab, choose to match whole words only or not, specify specific forums, enable in social groups and visitor messages, and disable completely for selected usergroups or styles.

Version: 2.0

• New in 0.91: Limit the number of links created per keyword per post.
• New in 0.92: Use CSS to customize the look of links created by this mod.
• New in 0.93: Linked words now retain the same case as they were originally typed. Also a new option to specify whether linked words are case sensitive or not.
• New in 0.935: Fixed conflict with VBSEO and possibly other mods. Upgrade if you are having problems.
• New in 0.94: Made the "Custom CSS" an option to prevent unnecessary HTML if not needed.
• New in 0.95: Enable or disable in PMs.

• New in 1.2: Fixed bug when Ampersands (&) were used in keywords.
• New in 1.3: Added optional notice on posts with links and associated phrase.
• New in 1.5: Two new features: 1) You can now use a csv data file for your links (and advanced features) if you prefer and 2) You can use a custom user profile field to allow users to disable the mod individually if you choose.
• New in 1.5a: Updated German language file thanks to Igel1.
• New in 1.6: Fixed bug if keyword was part of thread title and thread title was a link in the post. (VB4 Only)
• New in 1.7: Added field to extend the regex easily through the mod settings. Included fix for bold/font color links.
• New in 2.0: Rewritten more efficient code. Added option to disable by styleid. Added GOLD version.

Example... If someone types:

"I bought it on Amazon."

This mod can auto convert it to:

"I bought it on Amazon."

And you would presumably put your Amazon affiliate code, if you had one, in the link.

NOTE: This mod does not alter the actual posts or the database. Disabling or uninstalling the mod will remove all links.

There is a VB3 and VB4 version of this mod, please download the correct version.

Full instructions in zip file.

Notice:
Since the following words are used in HTML tags I would avoid them as keywords:
style, div, class, pre, href, img, html, meta, name, rel, nofollow, and link.

I would also avoid any single letter or two letter keywords since they could easily be used accidentally in places you weren't intending.

I just want to know what is the difference between this mod & the built-in vbulletin "Skimlinks & Skimwords" ?

Really you would want to use this mod in combination with Skimlinks and possibly disable skimwords.

I am using it with skimlinks myself.

This mod is kind of like a local version of "Skimwords" but you have 100% control over which words are linked, and where they are linked to, and how many are linked per post or page.

Skimwords in my experience just offers you a few options and a lot of times it doesn't seem to link relevant words at all.

Plus any links Word Links make will still be counted by Skimlinks so if a user follows it from your site you will get affiliate credit.

I'm not saying this is better or worse than skimwords, it is a personal preference which you prefer. You can use both, I haven't seen any conflicts. This is just a different way of doing things.

The flash code:

<p align="center"><OBJECT classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" 
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" 
WIDTH="800" HEIGHT="600" id="{param}" ALIGN=""> 
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="{param}"> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF> <EMBED src="{param}" quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="800" HEIGHT="600" NAME="{param}" ALIGN="" 
TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED> 
</OBJECT></p>

Change your flash bbcode to this... this should prevent your {param}'s from being linked...

<p align="center"><OBJECT classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" 
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" 
WIDTH="800" HEIGHT="600" id="{param}" ALIGN="" rel="thickbox"> 
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="{param}" rel="thickbox"> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF> <EMBED src="{param}" quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="800" HEIGHT="600" NAME="{param}" ALIGN=""

You can definitely do this if you upload a .csv file & you can apply it to individual links. I don't think there's an option in the basic settings.

:up: I've just installed this & it's exactly what I was looking for. I'm using it for 'internal' links to my main website & for affiliate links (not skim links).
