This could get old fast for people like me who copy the text to make quotes with it, but interesting idea otherwise.

It's a highly entertaining idea and it works fine, well done.

I would just amend your mod description slightly to account for the fact it doesn't actually affect "anything copied from your site", just text blocks.

Just a brief idea maybe to add the ability to disable this for members or admins. Nice work, nikan.

Thank you all.
It's already disabled for admins. Members are also a reason for this mod.

I tend to agree with that. Members are at least 60% of the ones copying from sites.
I like this mod idea. Great job on it. :)

Thanks for the mod, really good idea!

Just for the record - seems it does not work in Opera 12.15 and IE8.

Excellent mod. I think it's lacking permissions. For example, admin chooses which member-groups are exempt from it.

I agree that would be huge.

I also think this would be a great idea. 

Mod looks great, always nice to get free backlinks from people stealing your content.  I'm guessing it works a bit like the Tynt mod, but less hassle?

Thanks, nice mod...

BTW, it would be nice a customizable string before the link, like the "Information from: "
(I have added by hand, editing the file... I like to do it that way anyway... but maybe other admins do not, or do not know how)


  oDiv.innerHTML += "<br />\n<br />\nInformation from: <a href=" + document.location.href + ">" + document.location.href + "</a>";


Or at least handled by an item on language files, Modifications.whatever.php
No me agradan los foros que no te dejan borrar TU PROPIO usuario, como por ejemplo smfsimple.com.
E incluso te mandan emails no solicitados, de los cuales, quizá, no puedas escapar porque NO te dejan posibilidad a deshabilitarlos (a menos que NO te tengan en su lista negra).

nikan

Thanks, but I found that it is preferable to have only the link, so i removed the language string.

It would be nice a function, to make it work only when copying inside the forumposts ID (posts/topics content)
