GOwin:
I haven't seen what you report about links. So far the only attention I had given to the subject was the URL field, in which you only type the URL and it gets converted to a link instead of being displayed as text (this is accomplished using the function
makeClickable).
Let me check on this. Take this into account: any textarea is sanitized using
displayTarea, a function that, depending on the value of the relevant variables ($html, $smiley and $xcode) calls other functions to transform the text. Since Wordbook works by default with all values set to "1", if you have bbCode it will be translated to HTML for display purposes (your browser doesn't "speak" bbCode).
There's one thing that happens in the sanitizer: line 287 reads:
$text =& $this->makeClickable($text);Since this is outside any conditionals, I interpret it as meaning that all text passes through the
makeClickable function. This function (lines 130-135), in turn, searches for strings that might seem as links, so my guess, without having tested it, is that you don't need to write actual < a> tags in the text, but just write the link and it will be converted. The problem with this is I don't know if this will let you then edit the text. It's worth trying, though, and the certain thing is that the function
displayTarea is here to stay.
As to your comment about the module's name, the variable used is the directory because if you change the name of the module but it still resides in the directory Wordbook, you need to be able to access it. You'd need to change the install directory. In this I'll try, in the future, to follow the logic explained by daigoro in another very interesting thread about cloning modules, but for the moment that's the way it's set. Sorry.
As to images, you should be able to use them following my comments
here. The problem is that the image will appear also in the block. I read Catzwolf has a solution for this, a summary function that strips the text from links and images to show just text in the teasers. I'll look after that code and if possible will implement it so that only the actual definition shows images.
This is for the moment what I can say.
Cheers.
