Is it possible to have this on a per forum basis ?

I only have a couple of forums out of 100+ that I need to anonymize

Thanks

This is not caused by vbAnonymizer - it is caused by redirection on top of redirection by vBulletin.

Anything is possible . It is not currently coded in though.

After uninstalling this product, it appears that the revised URL with the "redirector.php" remains intact, which is seems to negate the link from working altogether.

That should not happen - try clearing your post cache.

I am not certain, but I believe I may have tried that. It had only revised ten URL references, so I searched these out and manually changed them in the end. Someone should test this in order to be certain, as it appeared to me that new posts were being changed forever in lieu of on the fly. The mod was performing as intended, but for me it was interfering with other modes (particularly AME).

[Dismounted]

What conflicts were you having with AME?

Hey Dismounted,
I understand what this mod does but would you be able to explain why it is important to have this mod installed?

What are the benefits?
