I understand how the obscenity thing works so that if anyone enters a bad word or word I choose, it changes it to ****
How do I make it so that, say, anytime someone enters a certain word it changes it to another?

Example,
every time someone enters the word
yellow
it changes it to the word
green

etc. +

Replacement Variables will do that. However, they will work on the whole site, not just in post text.

I am being advised not to do this with replacement variables. Any other choice?

Sure, write a plugin (use the postbit_display_complete hook location) that does find and replace - str_replace

Is there a plugin/mod like that on the site, or has anyone already written one?

Would this plugin also then work for this

No one has written this plugin?

Sure it's been written. I've posted an example a couple of times lately as this has been brought up a couple of times lately.

This might be a stupid suggestion, but wouldn't it be possible to make the word you want to replace, be replaced by a smilie?

For example... I had a user abusing the ">_>" face/image.... It started bugging some other users... So i just set an embarrasing smilie text with ">_>" and it changed all the faces retroactively.

Couldn't you, in theory, make an image, upload it as a smilie, and set the replacement text to whatever you wanted?

For Valentines Day on my forum, I -did- make the censorship option a heart "smilie" instead of "*" . XD It was pretty lulzy.

Can you tell me where to find the plugin here? Thanks so much.

I'm not gonna look for what I posted, instead I just did a search on "replac*" in "all mods" "titles only" and found this which should help you - Word Replacement (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=93758&highlight=replac%2A)
