Major Additions - AutoLinker Lite, keyword linker for vBulletin 3.7 and 4.x, and vbcms

AutoLinker Lite is a keyword linker for vBulletin 3.7 upwards, 4.x, and vBulletin CMS. It allows the webmaster to configure particular words or phrases as keywords, which will then be automatically linked when they appear in user posts. As well as being hyperlinked, keywords can have pop-over info boxes, as in the image below:



These info boxes are highly configurable (colours, borders, fade in/fade out effect etc), and can contain html - meaning you can embed images, videos etc. Balloon-style boxes are also supported.

AutoLinker Lite has a flexible permissions system, allowing you to control which forums a given link appears in, and which usergroups it is visible too.

This is a free version of a commercial product, and contains a limit on the number of AutoLinks that you may create. Other than that, it is fully functional.

Please note that AutoLinks in the CMS do not work in vBulletin 4.0.0 and 4.0.1. 4.0.2 and upwards are fine.

A couple more images to hopefully whet your appetite:

Some of the things you can do with HTML:

Yes, you could hyperlink a word without it also displaying a popup box. But there are probably simpler ways - the replacement variable manager in the admincp would probably do what you're wanting.

I have the commercial version installed and I'm having issues with a couple of things. It seems like it's hit or miss whether the words actually autolink.

Also, the end dates that I setup for numerous links are not being stored.

If you want to send me over a link to one of your forum pages where this is happening, I'll take a look (let me know what the keywords are, and the maximum number of occurances per post that you've set)

As far as I know, it's fine with 4.2. Can you give me any more details on what's not working please? Link to a page where keywords should be showing but aren't? (PM me if you don't want to post it in public)

I am wondering if you can help me. I purchased Auto Linker Pro about 2 years ago and we just moved servers and on the new server we are running php 5.3 and the ZEN coding for the version of auto linker is not compatible with php 5.3 I am running version 1.1 of Auto Linker. Is there a newer version???

Thanks You
V

Just for anyone else having this issue: we ditched Zend after v1.1, so if you grab the latest verson (1.3, from the website) there won't be any Zend/PHP 5.3 issues
