Acronym Mod

[X-Ception]

This was a mod for phpBB what it basically does is allow you ( via admincp ) to add acronyms to a little list with a short explanation of what it meant

i.e brb - be right back
SMF - Simple Machines Forums - http://www.simplemachines.org

and when a user posted it would then create a hover over that displayed the explanation so SMF would display as SMF and on mouse over would show

Simple Machines Forums - http://www.simplemachines.org

.. i hope at least some of that makes sense :/

p.s
love the spell checker

Well, I'm not sure but afaik this isn't hard to do, e.g. with the word censor .

I think the censor is a cool way to have certain words sponsored as well.

Like having the word Motorcycle link to hondas website automatically

Im sure on the right forum people would pay good money to own certain words posted by users

Only problem is when they use an acroynm in a post title.  It doesn't work too well with the censor

[[Unknown]]

Why not?  You can instruct the censor to replace a word with HTML.

[Thantos]

Well that would explain it then   I was replacing with BBC.

Of course the biggest problem would be if you allowed users to turn off censoring and they did they wouldn't see the nifty acronyms.

The word censor has some other great applications. I use it to automatically correct the many misspellings of the word 'design'. But then, I probably need to get out more.
