Is there a plugin that enables automatic keyword linking and that works with SimplePress?

I use this plugin on wordpress blogs http://www.mbpninjaaffiliate.com/. You can enter keywords and relate them with links. All (old and future) posts with those keywords will be linked to the defined link. The plugin has cloaking functionality and statistics. So it's very nice.

It would  be nice if it worked on the simple press forum too.

But it doesn't work.

Would it be possible to have this plugin or another work with SimplePress?

It would give a nice extra for Simplepress as the forum tool for wordpress and it would give us bloggers a nice extra income.

What are your thoughts?

how does that plugin work? do they have a “callable” routine that you can pass in the post content and they return the modified content? or a post content filter that can be used?

Because we already have hooks in place, so you can grab the post content and run it through any filters or routines they have…

just need to know how they do their magic…

That's a little above my knowledge. I can send you the script if you won't use/distribute it. They sell it and it's worth the money. I don't think they would mind if it would work with Simplepress. Would be some nice functionality.

Please let me know if thats ok and where i can send it.

at this point, not something I can really do…

that said, if you do the heavy lifting, still can provide some guidance…

look through his code and see if he has any code of the format

add_filter(‘name’, ‘name’);

I found this:

add_filter('save_post', array(&$this, 'naffUpdateCacheOnPostSave'));

add_filter('the_posts', array(&$this, 'naffAddNinjaAffiliateToPosts'));

add_filter('comment_text', array(&$this, 'naffAddNinjaAffiliateToComment'));

add_filter('edit_comment', array(&$this, 'naffUpdateCacheOnCommentEdit'));

I did a quick review of Ninja Affiliate and although there is quite alot of aditional features, the keyword linking inside the forum is what your request was specificly about…

there are other plugins that will link keywords in your text as a javascript replace which is loaded after the page is rendered.

Have you tried any of those?

Do you have any more suggestions?
