I'm not much involved in vB as of late, but I still have the curious nature.

How would I be able to parse text links into proper hyperlinks. Example:

If someone typed vBulletin.com into a post rather than writing out the full URL, vB would automatically convert that text link to vBulletin.com

So it'd work if anyone typed in text and added a .com/.co.uk/.org etc etc after it. Of course theres the risk that the link won't work if the site doesn't exist... But still.

Any ideas?

Regards,
Chris

It already does this pretty much everywhere...look at the bbcodeparse2() function

couldnt u use the replacement option?

Oh, I get what you're asking now. Yes, you could use replacements but it would show the raw HTML in posts rather than a link itself.

Try finding the regular expression in bbcodeparse2() that parses links, and get rid of the protocol; it might look like (http|ftp):\/\/.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
