SMARTlink
Socioclick's mambot - SmartLink lets you do following things: insert links using more natural and easy language than regular HTML and process outgoing links changing their behavior and view.

Insert links using natural language:
Smartlink offers several solutions to make it more easy to add hyperlinks into your articles.

1. Add links as raw URL. Just write address of page and it could be replaced with clickable HTML hyperlink.

2. Use SmartLink tags. If you need more advanced abilities for hyperlinks adding, you can use SmartLink tags. SmartLink tags are syntactic structures surrounded with [brackets] and having two parts separated with "->".

Left side of this structure usually acts as a text of hyperlink and right side as an address.
SmartLink mambot works correctly with absolute URLs as well as with relative.
It considers url as absolute in the case when it begins from
http://,
https://,
ftp://
or www. URLs like follows will be considered as internal relative
- index.php?aaa=bbb
- ./index.php?aaa=bbb
- ../index.php?aaa=bbb
- /subdirectory
- /index.php?aaa=bbb#732939
- ../subdirectory
- #somemegaid

In the case when right side looks like email address SmartLink automatically converts it to mailto link.

3. Use SmartLink tags for search. You can not only specify precise URLs to point to some of web-pages.

SmartLink allows you access various internal resources by their names. Open all external pages in new window: When someone opens you site surfing the web, the most correct strategy for you as site owner is let visitor open most of internal pages in same browser window as current page and open external pages in new window leaving your site open as long as possible.

SmartLink offers you a solution which won't let you forget to add target="_blank" to the links which leads out from your site. It will automatically convert outgoing links making them open in new window.

Also as an option it offers add special icon next to link. It will notify your visitors that this link will be open in new window. Additional Features
* SEF URLs Support. All generated internal links automatically becomes search engine friendly.
* ESCape characters. To avoid processing of substrings similar to SmartLink tags you can use backquotes.

Coming soon with Premium version
* Full-text search for SmartLink tags
* External domains for search: google, wiki, msn, yahoo
* Ability to add more external domains via user API

Not working for me by tayhow, June 4, 2007
Good idea, but only some features work for me.

I think this should be version 1.0 alpha.

Suggested improvement: I need to be able to turn each feature on or off.

Example:

I only want two things:

- External links in new windows
- Web addresses turned into and HTML links

... and so I would like to turn ALL the other [xyz -> abc] features off.

I have registered at the www.socioclick.com, but there's no forum and the 'Contact Us' link brings up site search, so how do I feed back problems?

The main problem is the plugin producing this:

--escaped:9930a553b273ea735d46ba4576465334--

instead of some links.

Look forward to a new release and a method of feeding back bugs/issues.


Owner's reply:
This issue has been fixed:



--escaped:9930a553b273ea735d46ba4576465334--



Also the 'contact us' link has been fixed, so you an get in contact. But I believe we have had this conversation and some issues resolved. Thanks
