Author: MarcoH64

vBulletin Version: 3.5.1

Warning: Version 1.02 might create double anonym links if you edit a post multiple times. Version 1.03 has been reported not to be working for some people. Please read posts in this thread if you plan on using this hack, until i had time to look into this.
v1.05 and higher should be the best versions
1.10 Is an updated version of 1.05.3 and is considered a stable release. Only version 1.10 will be supported now.

Description:
This Product will add a self configurable anonymising link to all external urls in posts.

Installation:
Install the XML-file as Product.

Configuration:
vBulletin Options->Link Anonymizer :

Local Addresses

Local addresses are not anonymized. If you leave this option blank, the value for vBulletin Options Cookie Domain will be used. Do not use a http:// prefix.

If you start the name with a dot (.mydomain.com) all server addresses ending with this will be considered local. If you want to add mulitple domain/servernames, seperate them by a single space.

Anonymizer (default: http://anonym.to/?)

Link to a anonymizer function. Use preceding / if needed. Other Usable Anonymizers:
Code:
http://anon.free.anonymizer.com/ 
 
http://anonym.webgurus.de (Thanks Wachtmeister)

Allways anonymize Unparseble URLs (* New in version 1.10)

i just went to your forum and it appears to be working correctly.

SecTa · #**183** 10-10-2006, 09:23 PM

That's because i've added .discogs.com to adresses that are not anonymized.

but the outlinks (to places outside your forums) i checked from your forum seemed to be working as they should be, anonymized. i can't find any links that aren't working as they should be.

Here you go, i found another similar issue. Look at that page, link http://www.bluetack.co.uk/config/nipfilter.dat.gz.
The code is

Code:

http://www.bluetack.co.uk/config/nipfilter.dat.gz

but output is: http://anonym.to/?http://www.bluetack.co.uk/

Code:

http://www.bluetack.co.uk/config/nipfilter.dat.gz

but output is: http://anonym.to/?http://www.bluetack.co.uk/

that's because in your post you specifically designated the link code properties.

Code:

Here's direct link: <a href="http://anonym.to/?http://www.bluetack.co.uk/" rel="nofollowconfig/nipfilter.dat.gz" target="_blank">http://www.bluetack.co.uk/config/nipfilter.dat.gz</a>

if this is not the case, please post here the actualy post content text... not what appears to the reader. hope that makes sense, i'm a little tired today.

SecTa · #**187** 10-13-2006, 03:35 AM

this is not the case, here's the code:

HTML Code:

[url]http://www.bluetack.co.uk/config/nipfilter.dat.gz[/url]

SCRIPT3R · #**188** 10-13-2006, 04:39 AM

and if you post that link without the BBCode code, it should anonymize correctly.

SecTa · #**189** 10-13-2006, 01:33 PM

if i will post the link without bbcode, it will be added automatically after parsing.

SCRIPT3R · #**190** 10-13-2006, 05:59 PM

then i'm afraid i'm not sure what the issue could be. i just don't see why or how this could pick only certain posts to parse incorrectly when all the others are done properly.

Patria · #**191** 10-16-2006, 10:10 AM

Looks like anonym.to is unreachable ... I recommend to replace anonym.to with anonym.ws.

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