EMail Address Obfuscator v1.0.2 · **Released**: 10-05-2005

This will obfuscate email addresses in posts in order to prevent email harvesting. There are a couple of methods available:

Image; the email will be displayed as an image, works quite well but not very user friendly.
HTML Entities; every character in the email address will be replaced with it's html entity. This is not a great method, but it stops stupid harvestors.
Javascript; the link will be written via javascript, works quite well and makes the link invisible for harvestors. But requires javascript to be enabled
Custom; roll-your-own algorithm, can be easily set in the vbulletin options in the admincp

This plugin also partially strips the email addresses in the archive (the domain name is removed).

Update 1.0.1
* [fixed] wysiwyg code isn't screwed up anymore
* [added] added support to select the font to use (builtin fonts, GD bitmap fonts or TTF fonts)

Update 1.0.2
* [fixed] fatal error when rebuilding postcache
* [fixed] invalid hash when quickposting\editing via AJAX
* [changed] the image tags now use the CSS class "inlineimg" that aligns them vertical center

When you install DC Seo vB URL Rewrite, it doesn't work.
Maybe you could make a version for use with the DC Seo vB URL Rewrite mod too?

You mean the image doesn't work?
That would be odd actually since afaik the image isn't rewritten by the DC SEO mod.

Installed it, works great, thank you!

Feature suggestions:

- option to keep everything unmunged for specified usergroupids

- option to have a <noscript> section (applicable when Javascript is the method) to display text such as "user@<hidden>".

- option to look for and munge other email addresses, e.g.
<address@tld>
[address@tld]
mailto:address@tld

These don't get parsed by vBulletin but they're certainly harvestable.

Installed on 3.5.2 and seems to work fine. How would I make a custom algorithm?

Works like a charm on my 3.5.2. Thanks.

Installed and works in 3.5.3 but when using Image, the automatic link isn't active. Usres will have to manually type in the email address to their email prog. Is the image supposed to be an active link?

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