Mini Mods - [Mod-Mall] Tynt - Add link to copy/pasted content (for SEO)

What Tynt Does
In short Tynt adds a link to content copy and pasted from your site, this obviously helps your SEO and also provides a decent link for more visitors.

You can find loads of information at http://www.tynt.com/publisher-tools

Example... Try to copy something from this page (selected at random)....

What This Mod Does
This mod inserts the javascript in your header template, saving you from having to edit or revert your templates every upgrade.

It also has built in conditionals to allow you to configure who the script is active for

    var Tynt=Tynt||[];Tynt.push('');Tynt.i={"ap":""};
    (function(){var s=document.createElement('script');s.async="async";s.type="text/javascript";s.src='http://tcr.tynt.com/ti.js';var h=document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];h.parentNode.insertBefore(s,h);})();
   }
   </script>

4. copy and paste this into the script box found in your admincp under Settings>Options>Add Tynt Script
5. Activate and configure the add on in the same screen

How to Upgrade

To Do List

• [S]Additional user checks (User ID, Usergroup)[/S] - V1.2

Please note I have nothing to do with Tynt, I just saw the script and thought it would be a good thing to try for my first modification on vBulletin.

I find that if you just add the code manually into your header without using this modification.... vBSEO has no issue.

See for yourself....

For a better load and more accurate reporting, it's even better to add to your footer

Maybe President Obama should deliver next year’s State of the Union at the Friars Club.

Last night, the commander in chief unfurled a string of sharp-as-a-tack one-liners at the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner — many of which slammed square into his potential Republican foe Donald Trump, who was sitting in the audience at the gala.

As a stern-faced Trump looked on, Obama spent a good portion of his monologue mocking his putative run for the White House and the New York real-estate mogul’s “birther” stance.

Maybe I've missed something but in every trial I've done the link, back to original site, can be edited out by the poster when pasted into a post email blog, etc. can also be deleted by moderators and administrators.

At first glance it appears to be a really good thing but.... if this can be done, other than the exclusions, just what is the benefit for major forums that are being constantly skimmed.

Cheers - Neil

PS I was just able to delete half of the SkinLinks link in the post above

Hi ,of course someone can always remove the link... but it puts it there in the first place.

For an example, if i paste this Read more: http://www.mysite.com/showthread.php...#ixzz1e0sDablX it wont work, if i remove then#ixzz1e0sDablX the link works and is valid. Is there a way to have this modified out of the tynt code? Or can the xml be modified?

I beleive there is a setting on tynt's website

[tommydamic68]

the settings for exclusion do not work on my forum. Anyone else had this issue with excluding usergroups? also tried post count as well. Still does not work.

[tommydamic68]

In your tynt account go to customize address bar tracking. Then uncheck the address bar tracking enabled.

Click Save

Copy/paste code again to your vb settings and that's it

Will this script work on Vbulletin 3.8.6?
