AutoLinker Lite is a keyword linker for vBulletin 3.7 upwards, 4.x, and vBulletin CMS. It allows the webmaster to configure particular words or phrases as keywords, which will then be automatically linked when they appear in user posts. As well as being hyperlinked, keywords can have pop-over info boxes, as in the image below:

These info boxes are highly configurable (colours, borders, fade in/fade out effect etc), and can contain html - meaning you can embed images, videos etc. Balloon-style boxes are also supported.

AutoLinker Lite has a flexible permissions system, allowing you to control which forums a given link appears in, and which usergroups it is visible too.

This is a free version of a commercial product, and contains a limit on the number of AutoLinks that you may create. Other than that, it is fully functional.

Please note that AutoLinks in the CMS do not work in vBulletin 4.0.0 and 4.0.1. 4.0.2 and upwards are fine.

A couple more images to hopefully whet your appetite:

Some of the things you can do with HTML:

If you want to send me a link to an example (either here on in private) I'll happily take a look

Here are screenshot examples.

The word exegesis

Thank you

Thanks. First thing I notice is that you haven't got a <script> tag to load autolinker.js. You want something like this just after the <body> tag:

script src="/autolinker/autolinker.js"></script>

(there's more info in the README file that comes with Autolinker)

Even then, it looks like there's another problem, as it isn't even attempting to hyperlink the exegesis keyword. Have you checked that the permissions template being used allows this keyword to show in this forum (and to your usergroup) ?

Chadi · #**175** 08-20-2012, 02:36 PM

What permissions template? I do not see anything about "permissions template"

kermit2 · #**176** 08-22-2012, 08:00 AM

Oh, sorry - permissions templates aren't part of the lite version. Anyway, I see you've added the script tag to load autolinker.js, and it looks like it's working now

How does it work on your end when its not on mine? Cleared cache, tried 2 browsers. It shows icon, but nothing pops up.

kermit2 · #**178** 08-24-2012, 11:32 AM

If I hover over exegesis, the box pops up (not over the icon though) - are you not seeing that? Any javascript errors in your browser? You might also want to try viewing the thread while not logged in, just in case that is somehow the problem

Chadi · #**179** 08-24-2012, 11:46 AM

Your right, it only works when not logged in. What could be the cause?

kermit2 · #**180** 08-25-2012, 09:58 AM

I've registered as a user so that I can see what's going on, and autolinker.js isn't being loaded. So it looks as if the way you've added the <script> tag to your templates is causing it only to be included for guest users. Did you look at the README file included with autolinker? It includes an example of which template to edit

Hi there,

I'm running latest version vBulletin 4.2 PL2 and when I install autolinker lite, the admincp panel is blank.

Any ideas on this one?

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