User Requests option to turn off autolinks in forum

Request for option to disable wiki autolinks

I've got a great user who has a self-professed touch of Asperger's, and the wiki links really drive him nuts. I'd like to be able to accommodate him with an option or some other method to disable the wiki autolinks for him. Any way to pull this off?

There is an existing option for this, but it is not working properly. It is already slated to be fixed in the next release.

There is a checkbox in Your Account > Preferences > Content Options, "Disable automatic links to wiki pages in posted content"
This should work in the future but currently the checkbox state will not save if you try to change it. You can let the user know a solution is in the works but you may or may not want to point them to this checkbox until it is actually fixed.

You can try the following yourself to see if it gets the checkbox working in the mean time.

In src/addons/vw/vw/_core/model/user/xf2.php, find:

Code:

$value = json_decode($value, true);

Replace with:

Code:

$value = @unserialize($value);

In AdminCP > Appearance > Template modifications > VaultWiki > account_preferences, find:

Code:

name="vw_autolink"

Replace with:

Code:

name="vw_autolinks"

You may need to temporarily activate your forum's debug mode in order to make the second edit.

Works great, small correction though, you need to enable development mode, not debug mode.

I used this mod to quickly enter and exit development (or debug) mode: https://xenforo.com/community/resour...from-acp.7163/ I like this mod (there are several mods that do this) but only this one has usergroup permissions for debug and dev mode. I like that a lot!
