Forum Autocarding

You can now link to cards in the forums using BB code so if you wrap [noparse][/noparse] tags around your card names they will link through to the full card info.

MTG Example: [noparse]Birds of Paradise[/noparse] will produce Birds of Paradise

WoW TCG Example: [noparse][wowcard]Fireball[/wowcard][/noparse] will produce [wowcard]Fireball[/wowcard]

If you know which edition card you would like then you can add this as an option when posting to link directly to that edition of the card like this:

MTG Example: [noparse][card="RAV"]Birds of Paradise[/noparse] will produce [card="RAV"]Birds of Paradise

WoW TCG Example: [noparse][wowcard="TOTD"]Fireball[/wowcard][/noparse] will produce [wowcard="TOTD"]Fireball[/wowcard]

Ok, added a button to the editor so now you just have to highlight your card name and click the button and it will automatically wrap [noparse][/noparse] tags around it.

Autocarding now goes to a tcgvault.com card page, lets see if it works...

Birds of Paradise
[card="RAV"]Birds of Paradise (With RAV as edition)

EDIT: Seems to work!

The beauty of using tcgvault is that we can now autocard WoW too! I'll append this to the first post but if you want to autocard a WoW card, you can use the following code: [noparse][wowcard]Fireball[/wowcard][/noparse] which will produce [wowcard]Fireball[/wowcard]

Autocarding for cards from the Theros block shows broken images, shows the same on tcgvault, dunno if this was reported yet.

Dragon Mantle

Thanks NightLoki. Haven't added the images to there yet... :\ Should probably update the autocard to use images from our CDN.
