Is there a way of seeding certain words within posts?
Ie, a poster puts a brand name within a post and the brand name automatically becomes a text link to the brand's website or page?
I've looked into using the profanity filter to do so but it doesn't convert the code correctly plus causes problems within the topic title by displaying the full code instead of the linked word. Ideally within the title it should remain as just the text word and not a hyperlink'd word
Eg: Replace the word Brand in the profanity filter with a hyperlinked text and the result in a post would be: Brand
..or perhaps the profanity filter function and code could be duplicated to create a seperate seeding function and filter ??
Just thinking out loud

Be sure to read it all and be careful to get the correct code. There was lots of tweaking along the ride.

Thanks Bobby, it's been a long hard day so I'll take a good look tomorrow[^]

Thanks Bobby, just what I was looking for and now integrated within our site
If anyone else is to use it though be aware that some forum formatting has somehow leached into the code and requires removing first.
Below is a clean version of the bulk of the code to go into inc_function_common.asp
Also
Dim ShowKeyWords : ShowKeyWords = True
needs to be added to topic.asp etc without the forum formatting as shown in the original post

One issue I have found is whentrying to add a different style/format to the keywords by adding the following code within inc_header.asp
I just can't seem to get it to display as it will not overide the forum's a:link and a:hover codes
I'm sure it's to do with the way '#keywords is presented as when putting the different styles into a:link and a:hover they do dispay as expected
Any ideas ?
Code:
"#keywords {color:" & strLinkColor & "; font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none; border-bottom:1px dashed; line-height:18px;}" & vbNewLine & _
"#keywords:hover {color:" & strHoverFontColor & "; font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none; border-bottom:1px dashed; line-height:18px;}" & vbNewLine & _
