Bibliasoft -- BibleFilter 1.5

Introduction
In 2004, plugins became available for both Wordpress and Drupal that converted plain text Bible verses into BibleGateway links. The plugins were free to modify and distribute, so I have ported the code to work with vBulletin and made some improvements.

I originally introduced this modification for vBulletin 3.5.x, and now I present it (with a few enhancements) for vBulletin 3.6.x

=---------------------------------------=

What does it do?

Basically, every time a user types in a Bible Verse (e.g. John 1:1), it will automatically turn it into a link to the Bible Gateway's page for that specific verse. The filter will convert verses posted in various formats including, but not limited to: John 1:1 John 1.1 Joh 1:1 John_1.1 1John_1:1 1 John 1:1 NIV John 1:1 ESV John 1:1 KJV etc.

=-----------------------------------=

Some features:

Admin Control Panel Settings
- The Administrator can choose whether or not Scripturized links open a new window or not.
- The Administrator can choose the default translation that is used.

Versatile
- The newer version supports various different means of creating links, including Book Abbreviations (Gen instead of Genesis, for example).
- A period (John 1.1) can be used instead of a colon (John 1:1).
- Users can specify which translation they would like to use simply by placing it at the end of the reference: (John 1:1 KJV, John 1:1 ESV, etc).

Extra Features
- The product will also turn Apocrypha verse references into links. NEW!

=-----------------------------------=

Installation

1) Import the product file using your Admin Control Panel.
2) ENJOY!

If upgrading, simply overwrite the old product.

Support

I will try hard to support this product. There are a few ways you can help support the product, too:

1) Click Install. This will help incredibly with support.
2) If you find this product useful on your forums, consider posting a link to Bibliapedia.com somewhere on your site. It's a useful free non-profit online Bible Encyclopedia.
3) Give feedback on the product! Let me know what you think!

I think that's all for now....so ENJOY!

I have been working on my online Bible Mod. I used vrbible as a basis for my regular expressions. http://www.predestinarian.net/forum/bible.php

Let me know what you think.

This works in 3.7 as well. You should post in those forums too.

Good job

Is there any way to get this hack to work within the vBulletin FAQ system? I have built some Christian FAQ entries and would love to have the scripture references automatically parse into links.

Ideas?

[PGAmerica]

Any help here would be appreciated.

I've installed it in my forum, vBulletin 3.7.2 but it doesn't seem to work, is it expected? Anyone tried this on 3.7.2? How to make it to work? Thank you very much for your help.

[prosperous]

please disregard my question. i just found out that it's disabled by default and also found out how to enable it from the product manager.

Anyone else having trouble with biblegateway.com today?

[PGAmerica]

What's the problem. Seems to be working for me.

It showing many valid scriptures as "Not Found". Some work, some don't.

For example 2 Thes 2:11 is one that doesn't work.
