Geek Auto-Linker 4.5 LITE

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...

just do me a favor and put a space before bluefly in your replys. Im not sure if I put special character considerations or post starting conditionals in the LITE version and I cant really open up the code right now. I suspect they are not coming up as positive because the LITE version MUST have a space before the word for it to be eligible.

Check PM.

There is a test reply with a space and without now. It added a space when I typed .bluefly. -> . bluefly. (with link). Then after a refresh the link was gone again. My guess is if I quote that text it will show as a link once and then disappear again.

Thanks for your help.

Yah, this most certainly does not work on my board. 3.5.1 ... just FYI.

[noonespecial]

That kind of defeats the purpose ...

It was released for 3.5.1 and definitely works on it.

And it works all the way up to the current version.

Finally I found this hack (thanks to andreas). \o/

Unfortunately there is a 'little' problem after installing it.

As it seems only the words in the first post get replaced.

If you want, you can see it here quite well:

In the first Post "RW" gets replaced, in the second it doesn't.

There is an option in the CP somewhere to make it only replace 1 per page or all, iirc.

Is there anyway to limit it to just one forum?

Thanks

As far as I can see it, there is just an option in settings where you can define the amount of replacements per post. There is nothing about replacements per page. :\

Even so I tried it with 0,1,10,99999. Nothing changed as far as it concerns the replacements in the following posts.

Edit:

It seems as if it is always correct replaced in the first post on each site. It's also in showpost.php correct.
