Falk submitted a new plugin: UrbanDictionary Search - Search urban dictionary for definitions Read more about this plugin...
Not such a great idea with all these not mature people on these forums... But other then that this is really cool!
If I am correct, this plugin actually searches the word on Urban Dictionary and gives you the definition according to that site. Even though plugins like this aren't too useful, they're fun to have and are also more of a proof of concept that you can have a plugin that can search websites for information and relay that information into chat! I never even thought this was possible. It sounds really cool!
Yeah it's just for fun, I plan on making more practical plugins soon I tried to make an integration with MC Wiki but it isn't fun to get rid of wiki text and regular expressions are laggy, maybe I will try it again.
With this possible, this could lead to so many cool things in the future, such as being able to get stuff from the MC wiki (or a server's wiki), being able to take information from a forum or a server's news page, maybe even a rule's page from their site. Maybe this could even be used as a sort of mock database if someone doesn't understand how to make SQL databases but could figure out how to put information onto different webpages (like me XP).
I don't know about other CMS but MediaWiki has a raw text mode that is easy to grab the article content through.
