GAL fails if the term is wrapped in BBCode
For defined
GAL
terms, wrapping the term in any BBcode causes the autolink to fail.
This included bolding, italics, etc., as you can see here: GAL GAL GAL GAL GAL GAL GAL Any way to work around this?

GALs between HTML tags do not auto-link. Let's use an A HREF tag as an example. GAL does not auto-link whereas
GAL
does. Why do that? Because you wouldn't want <a href="http://www.thevbgeek.com/">whatever</a> auto-linked as it might screw up the link. Same goes for other HTML markup. You don't want text inside the actual tag such as attributes to auto-link, and you don't want text between tags to auto-link, because doing so might break the HTML. There is no nice way to handle every single possible text combination that a user could enter in a post. IMO the best regular expression that I made is as follows, but if you want to try a different one, you can do that via the ACP
GAL
Regular Expressions option:
Code:
#(\b($1)\b(?=[^>]*<)(?![^<]*</))#im

Forn some reason, I didn't receive the email notification of your reply to this thread so I'm just getting back to it now.
What I would like is for GAL to ignore the following codes: Bold [bCan you tell me how to change the GAL regex to allow this?

There is not a nice way to account for certain tags while discounting other tags. Untested but you can try the following though you may need to try different renditions as well:
Code:
#(\b((?<=\s|<b>|<i>|<u>|<font color="*">|<font face="*">|<font size="*">)($1))\b)#im
