Does anyone know how to censor entire sentences ?

[hotslot]

I understand the censor tool in vbulletin admin sucks and only lets you do like 1 word at a time and eliminates it from all threads.. I'm looking to edit a predefined sentence that occurs on all my threads.

Try wrapping it in {}.

{SENTANCE}.

I'm doubt it will work, but it's worth a shot.

You can try something like this:

hook location - postbit_display_complete

$word = array(
'word 1',
'word 2',
);
$link = array(
'new words 1',
'new words 2',
);
$this->post['message'] = str_replace($word, $link, $this->post['message']);

Nope doesn't work.

It's the $100 question right now.

I will try that now thanks!

I think that would work however would the "word 1" have to be in BBCODE or HTML ?

You may enter html in there, but not bbcode. It has to be what is in the parsed template.

Thanks Lynne, I'm using the hook and html code but its still not working.. When I think its close I get an error wont load the thread. Can I pm you with extra details ?

warm regards

I'm looking to edit a predefined sentence that occurs on all my threads.Because it wont block an entire sentance is hardly a valid reason to say it sucks. Word censors are just that, designed to censor words. Ive never come across anyone that needs to do such a thing (or indeed, a forum software designed to do it).

I have to disagree. There is many times when "spam" words like Click Me or Try for Free should be censored. You don't want to censor the basic word all over the forum but if added together You would.

Post the code you are using so we can see what is going on.

It could always be done in the Replacement Variable Manager. Problem with that is You can only do about 5 words tops at once. Is that a safe and affective way of doing so though ?

Replacement Variable Manager will change the lines on the whole site, not just in the post, but I don't see why that couldn't be used.
