Filter obscenities from thread topics only?

[chris frolic]

As my subject says, I'd like to censor swear words from being listed prominently in thread titles (and the most recent threads also get listed on my main page through vbPortal) but not bother with entire messages.

You can customize banned words in your Admin CP, doesnt that work for you?

If you want the words be filtered for the thread subjects only but not filtered in thread context, edit newthread.php, find


$message=censortext($message);


And replace it as:


// $message=censortext($message);


To have the same feature in new replies, apply the modification to newreply.php

i hate to dig up a really old thread...


if i enter words i wish to have censored in the thread title only, wont it automatically apply it to the entire forum?

wouldn't i need to remove something from the newreply.php file?
