How to check posts for auto-hyperlinks? Empty How to check posts for auto-hyperlinks?

Post by Seattleite September 15th 2011, 12:39 am

Is there a way to insert code, etc. into my forumotion that checks words in a post to a URL on a website and automatically hyperlinks them?

For example, if I had a website and one of the pages or articles was called "The Reset", if i typed in those 2 words into a post, it would make those words a Link to that page on my website.

for more detail on what i'm talking about here's a forum that does this kind of thing: http://forum.tcgplayer.com/showthread.php?231419-Esper-Artifacts , the users can just type in keywords and it will hyperlink it for them

Any help is appreciated! thanks thumright

Yes

Go and censor the phrase "The Reset" and set the replace content as a BBcode link Wink

That's a great start, but I need something that will check all words in the posts for any matches to pages in my website. "The Reset" was just an example ^^' And it contains 400+ articles so i can't really add them one by one... so any other ideas?

I think thats the only way you will be able to do it.
also you will not be able to use the same word even if it's in a text link form
