Rapidshare and Megaupload Link Checker and Notifier Mod

[ɔɔɔɔɔɔuɥoɾ]

Well on my forum we have posts with Rapidshare and Megaupload Links, sometimes the links go dead and we have no way of knowing directly.

I have a firefox addon which can check links and see if there valid, and was thinking maybe someone could apply the way this addon checks links to a smf mod and then have the mod PM the thread starter or poster of links that are dead and possibly replace the links that are dead with an alternative text.

also, links are inside HIDE tag (hidden content)

My forum software is SMF 2 BETA 4 and I will be upgrading to SMF 2 RC1 soon

if you need more info, please dont hesistate to ask.

Well Thanks in advanced hope it aint too much trouble

What firefox addon?

[ɔɔɔɔɔɔuɥoɾ]

What firefox addon?

I knew it would probably be you creating this mod, you have such great mods

ok well the addon is a greasemonkey script, so get greasemonkey addon for firefox if you dont already.
GreaseMonkey Addon:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748

I have uploaded the Javascript to my own hosting
http://www.requestiso.com/misc/link_checker/LC_script.js

simply install the greasemonkey addon then once done, drag the javascript file on to a firefox browser window to install.

Good Luck with the mod, anymore questions, please, dont hesistate to ask

Possibly in the next (or the other) week, I try begin do it.

Id also be extremely interested in a modification of this kind. I think it would need to have the following functionally (if possible)

1. Basic link checker for rapidshare links in user selected boxes (mine are in [code ]. (Perhaps with some AJAX functionality while it checks each individual link.

2. Automatic detection of "dead" links, and an option (set by the administrator) to either delete the post, or move it upon detection (to a Graveyard thread). If that's not possible perhaps an email or PM could be sent to the admin // moderation team.

Thanks

yea moving links to a dead link board (chosen by admin) would be a great addition to the mod, PM a Staff in charge (chosen by admin) and the topic starter, ive been waiting ofr someone to work on this for a long time, and there is much interest in it.

I urge you to post here if your interested in the mod, it will encourage mod creators that its actually worth making

xD This week I begin with this MOD (I think I take a couple of weekends).

(I was thinking do 'before' two MODs 'very necessary' for a forum, I hope anyone else to do so before )

well

I would imagine that simply copying what the grease monkey script does to the page and making that permanently integrated will do the trick for detection of the links, then add the other features like moving to a dead link board and notifying the admin and/or other staff and topic starter or post with dead links, but its easier said than done lol..

Thanks M-DVD, well appreciated from me, and others too!!

if u need any prototype testing of this mod, I will be happy to help with testing prior to submitting the mod

This is gonna be a great mod!!! cant wait!!!
