Adding Custom Hashtag Symbols

Is there a way to add a custom hashtag symbol? @ and # works as it should, I would like to add $ to the list because the site I'm developing is for an investment community. Example of use would be: $MSFT and would like that to be hyperlinked showing similar posts of that particular stock symbol on both GroupJive community and profile walls.

Thanks

Not for CB GroupJive Wall, but it's possible for CB Activity. For CB Activity within CB Activity > Parameters > Activity > Parser set "Prepare Content" to "Enable". This allows Joomla content plugins to parse activity posts. Next install CB Replacer Bot, which is a Joomla content plugin for replacing inline text. You'll need to create the appropriate REGEXP to search for your strings and replace them. Aside from that you'd have to try acting on the following triggers in CB Auto Actions to extend the parsing in CB Activity and CB GroupJive Wall with your own.

CB Activity:
CB GroupJive Wall:

Would you happen to have a detailed explanation of these steps? I'm not familiar with REGEXP and after installing the CB Replacer Bot, lots of perimeters that needs to be filled in.

Thanks

Nope there's no examples for what you're wanting. You'll need to be familiar with REGEXP to implement what you're wanting. The below is a good place to start learning REGEXP.

I also personally use RegexBuddy, which helps a lot in creating and testing REGEXP.
