In what plugin or function are auto-links created

[tscargo]

Hi,

I have created a 'news' mod (php script through vBadvanced.
The autolinks for the whole forum works perfectly, a great feature that is !

I want to also 'parse' my news articles just before outputting it.

Please point me to the plugin/hook you currently use, so I can call the same function from my mod.

Thanks,

Taco

Autolinks plug into vBulletin's default BB-Code parser (includes/class_bbcode.php)

Many coders make the mistake of calling the parser's do_parse() method, when they should be calling the parse() method - this one should apply plugins and permissions and such.

Hope that helps.

Thank you for the feedback, we indeed used do_parse instead of parse.

I now see one possible bug: only the first instance of the title of the Article is converted to a link. Is this intentional or a bug ?

This is intentional.
