Auto-link URLs

edited September 2006 in Vanilla 1.0 Help
Hi,

I really like the simplicity. The ONLy thing I miss is that URLs show up as text too.
E.g. http://yahoo.com shows up as text. I want it to show up as URL.

And only one more thing. When someone replies to my post I want a notification. That is all.

With these two things. I am a truly happy man.

Thanks for any ideas.

  • Time to jump for joy.
  • Thanks, but Notify doesn't work?

    Gives me a whole bunch of errors--

  • Looks like it's not getting the right connection details for the mysql server (unless you edited your errors before pasting them in) Might be worth opening up the default.php and seeing if you have to give it any settings. Otherwise try posting that into the notify extension thread or a new one with its name. I doubt the developer will look here for bugs relating to their code.
  • How can I make a link active in the comments sections? I see others doing it, but when I try on my own, I can't. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Paste your link http://www.yourlinkhere.com and make sure your post is made in "text mode". And it will make the link active for you. If you post in HTML mode you must make the link yourself. Is that what you are after?
  • Is there anyway to get rid of the target when it's an external link?

    That is quite easy--change line 42 from: "<a href=\"$0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">$0</a>",
    To: "<a href=\"$0\" rel=\"nofollow\">$0</a>",

    <a href="xxx">test</a> Hey Krak... Nope, text only mode does just that, text only!
  • "Format Comments as: Text" not the "Text-only-mode" from the panel.
