Mini Mods - [Mod-Mall] Tynt - Add link to copy/pasted content (for SEO)

What Tynt Does
In short Tynt adds a link to content copy and pasted from your site, this obviously helps your SEO and also provides a decent link for more visitors.

You can find loads of information at http://www.tynt.com/publisher-tools

Example... Try to copy something from this page (selected at random)....

What This Mod Does
This mod inserts the javascript in your header template, saving you from having to edit or revert your templates every upgrade.

It also has built in conditionals to allow you to configure who the script is active for

Currently supports

• Exclude Users with Post Counts above X
• Exclude Usergroups (for example if they have donated)
• Exclude Guests
• More coming soon

How to install

1. Import the xml
2. Register at tynt.com, and configure your website
3. It should give you some code that looks like the below to insert into your header
   

   <script type="text/javascript">
   if(document.location.protocol=='http:'){
    var Tynt=Tynt||[];Tynt.push('');Tynt.i={"ap":""};
    (function(){var s=document.createElement('script');s.async="async";s.type="text/javascript";s.src='http://tcr.tynt.com/ti.js';var h=document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];h.parentNode.insertBefore(s,h);})();
   }
   </script>

4. copy and paste this into the script box found in your admincp under Settings>Options>Add Tynt Script
5. Activate and configure the add on in the same screen

How to Upgrade

1. Import the xml, rember to check yes for "Allow Overwrite"
2. Check your configuration on Settings>Options>Add Tynt Script

Releases
V1.0 - Initial Release
V1.1 - Proof of concept for checking user information
V1.2 - Added additional user checks

To Do List

• [S]Additional user checks (User ID, Usergroup)[/S] - V1.2
• Additional forum checks (Forum ID)

Please note I have nothing to do with Tynt, I just saw the script and thought it would be a good thing to try for my first modification on vBulletin.

Ugg.. that makes it more trouble that it's worth. We have a problem with people just lifting stuff from our site. So a mod like this would at least remind those folks to credit where they got it. But if it adds that within our own site, then it's too much trouble.

Also, I wonder how much it helps SEO. The links it provides seem to be routed through tynt instead of directly to your site.

Click Save

Copy/paste code again to your vb settings and that's it

I tested, don't remove #ixtt2tjGn8t52

I would not use this mod if I was you. I would not use any of these mods actually because it is not good these days to just have your link plastered every where. If you are going to use a mod though I would recommend this one over Tynt:
