Adding an Allakhazam tooltip script

GuildPortal admin site link to the original post

This information is from the tooltip page on Allakhazam. It allows you to have tooltips for Everquest, Everquest II, Final Fantasy XI, Lord of the Rings Online, Warhammer Online and World of Warcraft.

Paid site
It would be easiest to add this line into your Banner Area (Control Panel > Custom Code > Banner HTML)

Free site
Since it appears (or maybe it's just me) that you can't get to the footer from the "Style & Colors" link anymore, it might be better to add this line into the Custom jQuery Code box (Control Panel > Custom Code > Custom JQuery). Add the code in blue into the appropriate boxes, check the Enabled box, then Save:

• Document.Ready Event Code:
  return
  
  
• Functions:
  </script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://common.allakhazam.com/shared/akztooltip.js">
  

*WARNING* There must be code in both the "Document.Ready Event Code" and "Functions" boxes or you will get a blank page when you reload. And yes, the script in the functions box looks reversed, but that's the way to get it to work properly.

Examples

• Purloined Gown (WAR)
• Deadly Cuffs (WoW)
• Nimbus of Growth (EQ)
• Adventurer's Shortsword of Clouds (EQ2)
• Goliard Chapeau (FFXI)
• Boot Knife (LotR)

How to make the links work

The script looks for the url in the href part of the link, so make sure that the link is correct.

• Find the item on Allakhazam that you want to link
• Copy (Ctrl-C) the URL from the browser and paste it into your forum post or content box editor
  
• Copy (Ctrl-C) the code below and paste it into your forum post or content box editor
  
  <a href="http://war.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?waritem=402307">Purloined Gown</a>
  
  
• Replace the code in orange with the URL of the item you just saved
  
• Replace the code in green with the name of the item
• Save the forum post or content box data.
  

The script from Allakhazam automatically adds the tooltips from here so there's nothing else you need to do.
