Description :
-------------

This hack allows you to insert somes tags in post which will be then replaced by html output.


How to use it
-------------

- Fill the tag field when adding a new tag. e.g. {test} or test or whatever else.
- Add some options in the code replacement. Options are definied by this way : {*number} e.g. {*1} {*2} ...
- The first option must be {*1} aso ... if the first option is not {*1} then the script will correct it and
order all the other options.
- When writting a post you can insert a rcode tag : if you defined a {htaccess} tag, then put
{htaccess}(options seperated by ,), if it's htaccess (without { } ) then put htaccess(options separated by ,).



Well I will give an exemple :


title : table
tag : table
replacement : <table><tr><td>{*1}</td><td>{*2}</td></tr></table>


In the post I will put : table(option1, option2)
then when viewing the thread this code will be replaced by this : <table><tr><td>option1</td><td>option2</td></tr></table> directly parsed when viewing so no html code will be visible.

Note that you can use in your html replacement code, css classes from your board (alt1, alt2, tcat ... )

Then you can imagine, it will be easy to insert in post some forms, html outputs ...

Well, see the screenshots for more details

Nice hack akex !

I'll test tomorrow

[high]* HiDeo clicks intall [/high]

[Akex]

Well as it's just a beta1 I will put in next version more features .

[Mythor]

This looks interesting, Akex. It looks like something that can already be done with BB Codes, though? Or am I missing something?

[Akex]

Well, with bbcodes you need a closing tag instead of one unique tag for this hack. No closing tag is needed

[Mythor]

Ahhh, right. Nice.

[Akex]

I made this hack for admin use only. Well, presently, everybody can insert rcode tags which have an html replacement but it was made above all in order to easily insert forms, tables aso ... , make the posts dynamic.

[HiDeo]

Yes it's a really nice idea !

I'm waiting for the next beta

[MrNase]

wow, that's really nice

What is planned for further versions?

[Milorad]

This is something I've been really looking forward to.

Is it capable of working without the { } ? -- if so, I could kiss you

I wanted something which would allow me to replace certain keywords with links. Like the name of my board, the name of my forums, or other affiliated sites.

So when someone types, say... vBulletin it could link to vbulletin.com
