The apostrophe bug is gone now. What an awesome script! Thanks Glen!

Great script, but have you had a chance to review the apostrophe problem? It’s the only thing keeping the script from being effective.

Hi, I’m getting the same problem as #20 and #22. When I look at the file, the line with the problem seems to be $anchor_regex = ‘’;Has a solution to this been found? Please send me an email, since I might forget to check back! Thanks.

I think I must be doing something wrong, but when I upload the scripturize.php file to the plugins folder and then go to it thru the admin interface to activate it, the whole code is there instead of an activate link. I’ve tried this three different times from 3 different sources with the same result. All of my other plugins have just dropped right in. Any idea of what I may be doing wrong or what may be causing this?

Peace,
Paul

I see the problem. The code in the text box has been run through Wordpress’ output filter and the single quotation mark has been turned into a fancy apostrophe.

The short-term solution is to do a search and replace.

The long-term solution is for me to fix this…

I too get an error after activating. I get the following error:


Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_AS in /home2/brianath/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/scripturize.php on line 53

For me, Line 53 is:


$anchor_regex = ‘’;

And just in case it may be an error before that, the last few lines of code (48 to 57):

DEFAULT_BIBLE_TRANSLATION’,‘NIV’);

function scripturize ($text = ‘’,$bible = DEFAULT_BIBLE_TRANSLATION){
    // skip everything within a hyperlink, a  block, a  block, or a tag
    // we skip tags because something like  should not be messed with
        $anchor_regex = ‘’;
    $pre_regex = ‘.*’;
    $code_regex = ‘.*’;
        $tag_regex = ‘< (?:[^<>s]*)(?:s[^<>]*){0,1}>’; // $tag_regex=’< [^>]+>’;
        $split_regex = “/((?:$anchor_regex)|(?:$pre_regex)|(?:$code_regex)|(?:$tag_regex))/i”;

I’m getting a similar error to Brian in #17 above, except in line 55. Line 55 reads:

if (preg_match($split_regex,$value)) {

Ideas?

I installed the plugin and activated it. Then went to write and got the following error

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in …/wp-content/plugins/scripturizer.php on line 52

Line 52 reads
// we skip tags because something like should not be messed with

any ideas?

Awesome plugin. The apostrophe thing is a problem, though, and the fix above (using ') doesn’t work. You have to use ' for all apostrophes.

I’ve tried to replicate the bugs people have describes but have been unable to do so. Specifically, I can’t replicate a scenario where Scripturizer fails with a single ’ nor where it fails in the midst of a sentence (and I can’t figure out what’s wrong near line 52). If anyone can point me to a URL that fails it would really help me debug this thing.

Also, I haven’t heard from Dean or Scott in a while about merging our codebases. I assume they got busy, so I’ll contact them again…

Thanks for providing this resource — and I need your help. I am trying to install this plugin into my new site, but I keep getting a “call to undefined” error around line 52. Not knowing anything about PHP, I can’t figure out what the problem is. Would you have any idea?

Thanks,

It seems that if the scripture reference is on a line by itself, it works fine, but sometimes if it is in the middle of a sentence, it doesn’t come though.

Can’t get it to work. Copied the code etc. uploaded the php file, activated it, all as specified.
But when I type a reference it remains completely un-scripturized… can’t work out why. I must have done something wrong…but it’s weird…

Thanks for letting me know–I’ll try to get on that ASAP!
