Hello [YOU] and welcome to my Advanced YOU BBCode Mod Demo Thread.
This mod adds a new BBcode like phrase, [YOU], that when saved to a post will automatically be replaced with the username of whoever is viewing the post.
It's a neat trick to grab attention- and can be real fun on forums who have never seen it before. Makes a great laugh for April Fool's day or can be used to increase participation.
This new version has been expanded to work pretty much everywhere in the forum, including in all or specific forums, blogs, CMS, the sidebar, widgets, signatures (when viewed in posts), Private Messages, Visitor Messages, Social Groups, and even Album Picture Comments.
From the Admin CP settings you can enable or disable the bbcode in any of these locations.
You can also specify a replacement for unregistered/guests to see. For Qapla.com it is set to simply "you."
