Add-On Releases - Link Anonymizer and Censor

Link Anonymizer and Censor 1.20

Author: MarcoH64

vBulletin Version: 3.6.x

Description:
This Product will add a self configurable anonymising link to all external urls in posts. Optionally it will also give you a Whitelist or Blacklist option for URL's. With this option you can censor URL's replacing those on the Blacklist (or not on the Whitelist) with a predefined text and/or link.

Installation:
Install the XML-file as Product.
Upload the contents of the 'upload' folder to your forumhome directory.

Configuration:
vBulletin Options->Link Anonymizer and Censor:

• 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:

http://anon.free.anonymizer.com/

http://anonym.webgurus.de (Thanks Wachtmeister)

• Allways anonymize Unparseble URLs
• Other options are explained in the vBulletin Options

Alternative local redirect script that can be used with this modification can be found at https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....3&postcount=64

Please click install if you are using this hack.

I have a little problem. If i post in one row two or more links, only the first link will be anonymized. Maybe a bug?

[dope15gd]

I've been using this for a while and i have a suggestion.

I noticed the option to disable the anonymizer in certain threads. Would it be possible to select which forums this effects. I have some forums I don't want anonymized and some I do.

Just a thought, thanks

hey, thanks for this great hack.

I'm using it in combination with the AJAX Hide Hack Resurrection (is that the name?!)

Well, after the thanks-button is pressed, the link gets visible. But the visible link is then NOT anonymized. Has anyone an idea how to fix this?

Thanks in advance

installed (already marked)

1question:

how do is get only the urls anonyminized, that i want to?
i only want to use this hack for 1-click hosters. all other urls should be treated as normal

oh..1 problem. i'm using vB in combination with vbcms. this addon has a function called "preview" in "Last Forum Threads" on startpage
when there is a link posted and i view it in the Preview it is not anonym'ed

thanks

[SCRIPT3R]

what would be the reason that only the first image-linked in a row of however many is anonymized and the rest aren't until the next row? very weird. will re-install once there's a fix.

One small bug I've noticed:

This text:

blah blah www.blacklist.url blah blah www.notblacklisted.url

Gets replaced with:

blah blah Link not allowed, click here to view our rules

As you can see, both the black listed link, and the non-blacklisted link get replaced and the text between those 2 links is lost as well.

I think this is a great mod, but for me this bug prevents me from using the mod.

Marco van Herwaarden, it will be wonderfull if there will be an option to disable or enable this MOD only for particular forums (sub-forums).
