Geek Auto-Linker 4.5 LITE · **Released**: 09-14-2005

From the makers of O and yea comes the eagerly awaited LITE version of Geek Auto-Linker.

GAL is a revolution in dynamic schwizzelsisting for vBulletin 3.5x and dramatically improved from earlier versions to be faster and more efficient.

Package updated 05/12/05

Fixes ordinal (order) of replacements

What does it do?

GAL scans posts at run time and automatically hyperlinks pre defined key words of your own creation! Thats right... every time someone types in toe jam, GAL can automatically link it to any URL you can dream of.
In fact, GAL will link several variations on toe jam (or whatever keywords you happen to use).

GAL 4.5 has improved its matchmaking abilities and now matches words returned from searches (though only single key words with no spaces due to vB limitations) and formatted words too! (which it never could before).

There are no file changes, no template changes and currently 1 query (as there is no freaking way to cache the datastore yet). Anyhooo - thar she blows.

For those wanting to have the news module in their vbaCMPS module auto-link... here is a teeny tutorial on it

Click install if you indeed install or you may be mocked publicly for it.

Please note that this is a free LITE version of the PRO version. Therefore there is no hovering popups, stats, impression tracking, BBcode in descriptions, etc...

Hi The Geek,

I had the 4.5 LITE installed, and put in about 20 or so links, and it worked for a while then stopped. Probably something to do with 3.0.x and 3.5 when we upgraded, even though we upgraded to the new GAL.

Anyhow, I need this back up and running so bad so I just ordered the PRO version a few minutes ago, and even with an installation service. I look forward to you fixing it all up for me

Thanks,

Tyler

i dont know if this has been asked before , but is it easy to upgrade from the lite version to the pro ? i wanna test it out before buying ... ( just to let you know , i havent tried any of them yet )

Thank you

Install

EDIT:

It is still not working on a second post onwards.

When opening a new thread it works on the 1st post but on the 2nd post after refreshing
it will not work and the link goes back to normal text

Is there any fix for this?
Thanks

Edit: Dont matter now I bought the full version
Thanks

so i've installed it and it works great.

only one question. i'm using the Lite version on 3.5.4. if i put in more than one word in the Description section for one of the replacements, when the link is made and i hover over it, i see the  in between each word. If i use one word in the description, it's not there.

is that simply the way this is coded? is this different from the Pro version? just wanted to know if it is or not.

thanks for this hack.

Hello.

I`ve installed this add-on but it does not work ok for me. When I post it replace the word, but when I refresh the page nothing happend. The word is not replaced.
And it does not replace all words in all posts. With every refresh the replaced word is diffenrend (the post i mean) and in most of the cases it is not replaced.
What to do?

Probably why this version is not supported or has been updated to work with 3.6, however I know of at least two instances where that reasoning has backfired on the author because they wanted to test the hack before they bought it. When they saw that it did work (see all the posts here about second posts/refreshing?) they decided not to buy it. That's a shame because this was, at one time, a nice little hack

The Geek · #**158** 09-15-2006, 08:46 PM

Duh. Guess I should have looked at how old his post was first

The Geek · #**159** 09-15-2006, 08:46 PM

Hey Bubble, it still is a nice hack. There looks like there is a bug with repeating posts, however if memory serves, there is a fix in the thread.

Please remember that this is totally unsupported and only meant to give people an option that may fill their needs instead of paying for a pro version.

Thanks!

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