Hello all,

Since a few days now, the words SWIM and MHRB in posts are now links to their appropriate entries on wiktionary.org, try it!

If you've got suggestion for other words that needs to be linked please let me know.


Kind regards,

The Traveler
 
Perhaps the acronyms we use to describe the effects? OEVs, OBEs, stuff like that. I know those can be confusing for new swimmers.

Also, you have to be careful selecting threads, if you accidentally click one of the keywords you'll go to wiktionary instead....

Click to expand...

Right on this moment I'm programming the forum so this links won't showup in the subject names. ;)

edit: It has been changed now, only in posts will this links appear.
 
Up till now these words have explaining links:

SWIM
MHRB
OBE
OEV
CEV
NaOH
SSRI
SNRI
MAOI
NP
A/B
STB
DMT

If any of you know more words that needs to have an include link please let me know.


Kind regards,

The Traveler


p.s. New words are added to this post...
 
NP for nonpolar and possibly MAOI for monoamine oxidase inhibitor

Also, I've noticed that if one of those abbreviations is in the middle of a word, it is formatted in uppercase with the link. I'm not sure if it's been fixed because I can't really remember if I've seen it in at least a week. If it isn't, I'd imagine it'd be fairly simple to alter the code to ensure it doesn't reformat midword.
 
Thank you for your input Dream Walker.

I've added MAOI but can't find a good explanation page for NP, if you have a good link I'll add NP too.
About the midword problem, you are correct it still exists. When I've got time I'll solve the midword issue.


Kind regards,

Thank you for the links The Dream Walker,

Yaf is made in ASP.NET/C#. The replace words uses so called regular expressions so changing the "search" for the words to be replaced was enough. e.g. 'SWIM' was changed into '\bSWIM\b'.
