phpGiggle 1.3.0 Released

  • A tool to automatically link key words and phrases in blog posts.
    Download: https://www.biermana.org/index.php?p=12
    Changelog:

    1. Added click-through tracking for dynamically linked words. Summary click-through report of all phpGiggle links has been added to the admin interface.
    2. Enabled strategic message/banner ad placement which is displayed to user upon clicking a phpGiggle link.

    phpGiggle locates user-defined keywords and phrases in an HTML document or string and subsequently replaces the keywords or phrases with anchor tags linking to user-defined URLs. As well, pre-defined a€?templatea€? anchor tags are included for Google.com, Dictionary.com, Webopedia.com, Vivisimo.com, CPAN.org, Freshmeat.net and others. With phpGiggle, anchor tags for an entire website can be contained in a single file, with links being dynamically generated when the HTML is displayed to vistora€?s browser.

    Yes, I have the latest phpGiggle plugin. However, I want to install it to https://nfo.zackdesign.biz/, not https://nfo.zackdesign.biz/wp/
    I have a strong feeling that that will fix the relative/absolute URL problem at once, but whenever I try to do it WordPress cannot read it because it’s a directory above it and down again… if you follow me. Another way of saying it would be that the phpGiggle folder is on the same level of the tree as WordPress. Is there any way around this, because as far as I can see it will not work any other way. phpGiggle cannot be under /wp/ to function correctly as I need it to.

    You would have to set the absolute link to phpGiggle in the plugin. I don’t think that would fix your problem, though. I noticed that you are using that funky permalink structure with the index in it. What happens when you temporarily change it to the default structure suggested by WP?
    Are you using 1.2.1?

    Yes, I’m using 1.2.1 with Permalinks enabled.
    Well, what do you know, with Permalinks off it works perfectly. I’m quite annoyed though because Permalinks would have been great…
    Is this possible to fix in later WordPress versions?
    Thanks for your help ??

    Try permalinks without index.php in it – I use permalinks.

    OK, I tried permalinks without index.php, but then Categories won’t work unless you specify a permalink for them which seems to require index.php, so that when I make a phpGiggle link to a category THAT doesn’t work either. This is rather frustrating because I’m kinda chasing my tail with no real fix in sight. If there’s no way to fix the category thing I’ll just have to forget about it…
    Thanks for your help so far.

    Try chasing your tail in the dark… which is what we do when a link is not provided. The default permalink structures of:
    /archives/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/
    and
    /archives/category
    should work just fine and would probably work with phpGiggle.

    Yes, /archives/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/ works fine, but /archives/category does not.
    When I click on my category list, this is what happens:
    404 Not found:
    The requested URL /wp/archives/category/videos/flash/ was not found on this server.
    I have to specify /index.php/archives/category instead, which will then mess up phpGiggle. ??

    I’d track down the rewrite problem by looking through other threads on this issue, posting there or starting a new thread. You don’t have an actual archives and/or category directory do you? That’s rhetorical, you should continue this in another thread specific to rewrite issues.

    Sure, thanks ??

    Can anyone get this thing working on a static page (standard installation)? The instructions assume that we know what we are doing. I’ve been using it as a wp plug for sometime and love it but I want to use it on other pages outside of wordpress. Can someone please translate the Standard Installation page into retardese.

    All it means is:
    put PHPGiggle’s files on your server….
    make a php file with this: <?php include (“phpGiggle/phpgiggle.inc.php”); ?> near the top of the page somewhere (above doctype and <html> tags if possible)
    Then you have a few options: you can put this in your page (in or near body or wherever is best) <? giggle_autolink($html_string); ?> for reading the text file (it will still link all words in the body that are applicable), a certain amount of keywords in an array: <? giggle_autolink($html_string,$keyword_array); ?>, or a single value: <? giggle_autolink($html_string,”Yahoo = https://www.yahoo.com&#8221;); ?>. I’d just go for the text file one up the top.
    This is optional: <? giggle_autolink($html_string,-1,1); ?> It shouldn’t matter all that much really, unless you’re having the problems i’m having… :-S
    The rest you should know if you’ve used it as a plugin before….

    Thanks Anonymous
    that was an excellent explanation and I tried every way but no luck, guess I’ll just stick to using phpgiggle in wordpress. I wonder if the cms I’m using to output the text on the static page is interfering with phpGiggle? Then again I hardcoded some text and tried to link that too but no go. Thanks again

    I’ve been having the same problem as bwahahax. Attempted login results in “You need to login with your User Name and Password”. I’ve used phpGiggle before with no problem, just recently upgrade to phpGiggle 1.3.0 and WP 1.2.2. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, changing config file, changing permissions. Anyone else have this problem and figured out the solution?

    Just figured out the answer to my own question. If you’re having trouble logging into phpGiggle, try turning on register globals in .htaccess.

    php_flag register_globals 1

    My webserver fails when I put the php_flag variable into the .htaccess. I don’t know what happened to this installation. I was using fine in 1.5 and recently updated the word file in July. Now, for some reason the “You need to login with your User Name and Password” appears.

    The author’s site appears to be no more as well.

    Is there an effective alternate plugin to replace it?
