Extension Description:
Link Titles - Shows the title of the linked forum, topic, post, member or page instead of a bare local URL, wherever phpBB displays text
- First release.
- Bare local links (forum, topic, post, member and page URLs) are shown as the
actual title, using a template per link type (`{BOARD_URL}` is available).
- Works wherever phpBB's text formatter is used: posts, private messages,
custom profile fields and mChat.
- Per-type switches in the ACP.
- A configurable fallback for deleted or unreadable content, so readers who
may not read a forum never see its titles.
- A short-lived cache (5 minutes) for forum, topic, post and member lookups.
- Display only: nothing in the database is changed.
