Suggestion for a [wiki] tag in the forum BBCode
So...would it be possible to have something like
[wiki=HAL]this[/wiki]and have it work like the normal url bbcode, except for the wiki?
[url=wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HAL]this[/url]Maybe not KISS, but definately useful

Re: Suggestion for a [wiki] tag in the forum BBCode
If you find out how that could be done in FluxBB, it may be considered. I doubt any forum maintainers are going to go out of their way to find it for themselves...

Re: Suggestion for a [wiki] tag in the forum BBCode
Alright, I have a (somewhat messy) patch for fluxBB 1.2.22.
281,296d280
< //
< //Turns a [wiki=pagename]link[/wiki] bbcode into <a href="http://wikibase/pagename">link</a>
< //
< function handle_wiki_tag($pagename, $link = '')
< {
< global $pun_user;
<
< $wikiurl = 'http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/';
<
< $full_url = str_replace(' ', '_', $wikiurl.$pagename);
<
< $link = ($link == '' || $link == $pagename) ? ((strlen($pagename) > 55) ? substr($pagename, 0 , 39).' … '.substr($pagename, -10) : $pagename) : stripslashes($link);
<
< return '<a href="'.$full_url.'">'.$link.'</a>';
< }
<

< '#\[color=([a-zA-Z]*|\#?[0-9a-fA-F]{6})](.*?)\[/color\]#s',
< '#\[wiki\]([^\[<]*?)\[/wiki\]#e',
< '#\[wiki=([^\[<]*?)\](.*?)\[/wiki\]#e');
---

< '<span style="color: $1">$2</span>',
< 'handle_wiki_tag(\'$1\')',
< 'handle_wiki_tag(\'$1\', \'$2\')');
---
> '<span style="color: $1">$2</span>');It is based on the handle_url_tag function and supports the following syntax:
[wiki]Arch Linux[/wiki] (returns <a href="http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Linux">Arch Linux</a>)
[wiki=Arch Linux]Somesuch[/wiki] (returns <a href="http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Linux">Somesuch</a>)EDIT: The above patch is for /include/parser.php

Re: Suggestion for a [wiki] tag in the forum BBCode
I would prefer a plugin over a patch (even a simple one) which has to be applied to upstream code.

Re: Suggestion for a [wiki] tag in the forum BBCode
As of 1.2.22, there is no way to do a plugin instead of a patch. I believe in 1.4 there may be. If there is, I will make one for 1.4 as well.
Ref:
* http://fluxbb.org/wiki/v1.2:installing_modifications
* http://fluxbb.org/wiki/v1.2:customization
I would agree that plugin is better than patch. Patching can have unintended consequences, especially in the PHP world.
