The contacts to search for can be limited by category. contactlink will not break your existing html code, nor break any existing links. It is also not limited to articles only; all text created with an Joomla editor can be taken into account.
Note: since Joomla! 1.5.15, email cloaking with images works (tracker id 17692)!

_______________
Changes in v2.0
Major changes were made for this small extension. Several special cases in which contactlink should not be active are taken into consideration, and several options were added which allow more and easy customization.
fixed:
* Preserve case when linking a contact's name.
+ Do not create links when printing or when creating a pdf.
+ Do not create links when a contact's name is already part of a link.
added new options:
+ Control the maximum article size contactlink may operate on. The regular expressions used can take a considerable amount of memory on very large articles, which may lead to php memory exhaustion. The default limit is set to ~50kb.
+ Decide whether contactlink may be active on the frontpage. This allows for a stricter look on your first page.
+ You can now limit the number of replacements. In large lists full of recurring names you may not want to link each time a contact's name is displayed.
+ You can now easily determine how the link should be composed. You decide how the link is shown, and where the link should point to, in three easy clicks.
+ Change the icons to match your site template. If you don't like the default icons, you can tell contactlink which ones to take.
+ Decide on which pages contactlink may operate on by entering specific components.

This is a great little plugin. All your contacts are immediately linked to from anywhere in the content. Initially I was doing this all manually but now no longer.
Thank you very much!
