# Link replacement plugin

 * I was wondering if there is a plugin for wordpress that replaces things I type
   in {} with other things. For example, if I type {my weblog} in I would like WP
   to automaticly change that to a value from a pre-defined list (e.g. [http://cron.quill.statichost.co.uk](http://cron.quill.statichost.co.uk)
   = {my weblog}) before the post is published. Is this posible? Is there a plugin
   that does this?
 * Thanks in advance,

 * Like using abbreviations or or such and having them change on posting?

 * Although it doesn’t do that completely right now [Twilight Friend Finder](http://twilightuniverse.com/2005/04/friend-finder/)
   does something similar, and is XFN friendly too 🙂

 * Twilight Friedn Finder is the best solution for WordPress right now. Another 
   non-WP-plugin yet very easy to integrate is phpGiggle, which also allows creating
   abbreviations, custom-made functions (for searching or quering web services on
   the keyword, for example Google, Wikipedia, etc.) and it also allows using both
   a central data file for keywords and adding post-only keywords via HTML tags.
   I personally root for Twilight’s solution as it is much friendlier and I think
   it has great future – the author is working hard on matching it up to PhpGiggle.

 * Thanks for all you help guys. The text replacement plugin is closest to what 
   I am looking for. I will test it out now.
