pretty looking url in blog posts

optrex · #1 01-15-2008, 06:17 PM

You know the thing I mean. When you put a URL in a post it comes up as the title of the page. If you put the url in a new blog article it stays as a URL.

Why is this?

How can I change it on my forum blog so that the title gets written in place of the URL ?

Hello,

please try this modification (it will be included in the next vBSEO version):
1. add new plugin in vB admincp:
hookname: blog_fpdata_presave
code:

PHP Code:

  if(defined('VBSEO_ENABLED'))
vbseo_complete_sec('blog_fpdata_presave');

2. modify functions_vbseo_hook.php file:
FIND:

PHP Code:

  $clean_redir = ($sec == 'newpost_process') || ($sec == 'postdata_presave')

REPLACE WITH:

PHP Code:

      $clean_redir = ($sec == 'newpost_process') || ($sec == 'postdata_presave') || ($sec == 'blog_fpdata_presave');

FIND:

PHP Code:

      $newpost_name = (($sec == 'newpost_process') || ($sec == 'newpost_complete')) ? 'newpost' : 'edit';

REPLACE WITH:

PHP Code:

      $newpost_name = 
        ($sec == 'blog_fpdata_presave') ? 'blog' : ( (($sec == 'newpost_process') || ($sec == 'newpost_complete')) ? 'newpost' : 'edit' );

Hi Oleg,

I've created a new plugin under the product VBSEO with the hook location blog_fpdata_presave
I've then modified functions_vbseo_hook.php as instructed. Still no joy at present. Can you advise further?

Oleg Ignatiuk · #4 01-16-2008, 06:16 PM

Please try to use "blog_data_start" hook instead of "blog_fpdata_presave" (both in admincp and file modification).

Hi Oleg,

I've changed the hook location to blog_data_start, as suggested. It seems to be randowm know in what it changes. Some URL's have changed to their page title and some have not.

I hope the feedback helps

Is there a way to reproduce it consistently (it seems to work fine for me so far) - may be specific URL included in a message?

I would like to see this work also, any way to get screenshots of the admincp?

I think that is where I am failing I do not fully understand where to make this hook hook up to or under I shoudl say,,,

You should open vB admincp->Plugins & Products->Add New Plugin. Select "blog_data_start" for "Hook Location", define any title and enter the code specified above for "Plugin PHP Code" input field, then save it.
