Will give this a go later, checked out your demo, very impressed.

Thanks for the kind words! I cant take credit for the idea, but its a super handy plugin for a number of reasons.

I will include the tooltips in the next release in a day or two.

cheers,

[QUOTE=Supramania;1997155]Question - what if the keyword is contained in a link already?

i.e. - User has posted:

http://www.somesite.com

and "somesite" is the keyword. does it disregard keywords inside URL tags? What about inside other tags? For example, my site has a tag called [sign][/sign] that replaces the users text with a smiley holding up a sign containing the users text. In that case would the "somesite" be a link within the [sign][/sign] tag? Or would it disregard that?

Does it also honor [noparse] tags?

Just trying to feel out what the impact of this is, and how I can use it.[/QUOTE]

by default if the word is already in a user made link, the plugin will not touch it (I dont want to get in the way of user experience, so I made sure of that)

HOWEVER: custom tags are not worked into it yet, I will try and work that in for the next release, good idea.

thanks!

Links appear to be broken

I set www.mysite.com => related keyword, but internal links don't work as well.

Perhaps ignore bbcodes and any html links inc. images if possible.

Ignore if:

Add tooltips, and I reckon you have one of the best mods of the year !
