Disable Swear Censor Per Forum
 

Here you go. Updated for 3.5 as a plugin. First one too! :)

Change the array of forum id's to the ones you want excluded from the swear censor.

I noticed there is another hack like this after I did it, but this has no db calls.

1.01 - Ok, for some reason the var forumids was messing up the edit attachments page in profile. So I renamed it. I just add "the" in front of it. So it is now $theforumids. You just need to go into the plugin and edit that, no need to download again if you have it installed already.

1.02 - As per boofo, I forgot one of the above vars I had to edit. All good now.

Wow, thanks a bunch!

i coulda swore i installed this a week ago ? ? ?

updated...please read the Edit if you installed this.

Uh, you need to change this:

to this:

or it's never going to work, sir. ;)

ur right, missed that one. :o

Perhaps you installed this version? ;)

I've not looked, but I dare say that the code is different.

he prolly did. I didn't notice it till after. BUt mine has no db calls.

Maybe have an on/off switch for all forums per user ;)

Totally different code :)

I didn't want hard coded IDs, wanted something that I wouldn't have to go back and edit each time I made a new forum I wanted to be disabled but that would have a simple yes/no box with it :)

Both ideas work great :)


Gamerz, I haven't had any luck getting it to parse or not based on user. I've tried alot of things with no luck so far :(

Most advertisers prohibit excessive profanity in the site content so be careful with your usergroup permissions if you install this. Even if it's only in private forums a disgruntled member could report it and cause problems.

I don't have UG perms on this. just forum based. Ppl can report whatever they want, in the end it is a private forum and ppl have to agree to terms anyhow. Nothing ppl can do to report some f-words being used. Weel, in north america anyway. can't speak for other contries.

Thanks - now the moderating team can swear in peace :D They are very happy.

umm did it only disbale sensor for any particular forum(s)?
it could customize words for each & every forum separately?
say:
In :: Help Zone : dog -- is allowed..
In :: Gossip Zone : dog --- disallowed..

is that possible ?
maintain sensor words separately in every forum/sub-forum?

Thanks

Great hack!!!!!!

Where and how do you disable the forums for this?????

Thanks.

go into the plugin section of the hack and edit the forum id's

Does this get affected by the "Rebuild Post Cache"?

On the other version that I posted, any uncensored posts appear as censored until they're edited after the post cache has been rebuilt. I bypassed it by excluding the non-censored forum(s) from the query, but it's kinda sloppy.

no affects

Cool.. Consider me switched! ;)

Cool, works a treat and does what it says on the packet.
Apart from i forgot to delete the other forum id's that was in there :rolleyes:

Thank you!

so all this thing did when I installed it with a single forum is disable another plugin.

needs more directions. this is a little vague.

what else do u want it to say?
Directions:
1. install plugin. if you don't know how to do that, u r in the wrong place.
2. edit the forum id's in the plugin.
3. take a nap. ur done.

Is this available for 3.6?

Anyone know??

Can this be changed from "per forum" to "per usergroup"?

I'd like to know if it's available for 3.6 too.

me too, will it work in 3.6.5 ?

I'm using this or one like it in 3.6.4 but I can't figure out if I forgot to mark installed or if I marked it in the 3.6 mods. And I'll look around more thoroughly later, but meanwhile you might want to check the 3.6 mods for it.

:)

ok thanks, I took a chance and installed it anyway, working perfectly :D

I just installed this on 3.6.8 and there appears to be no problems...Excellent mod! :D

Anybody got this running on 3.7 gold?

Yes, this works on 3.7.0 Gold.

Post cache rebuild affects this plugin in 3.7.0 gold. Censors all posts after rebuild. You can reverse it by removing the words and rebuilding the cache.

So it works if you never rebuild the post cache or, if you did, you'd have to remove the censored words first and then readd them after the cache was rebuilt, which would uncensor any words that were previously cached of course... etc etc blah blah. catch 22

If you never have to rebuild your post cache (which would be rare indeed) there is no problem using this.

Anyone still working on this plugin?

Installed on 3.6.10pl3

Anyone using it on 3.8.0 or later? Question I'm asking is I have some moderators interested in this, we get foul-mouthed in our staff only forum and would like to exempt it.

It still works fine for me in 3.8.1

Works in 3.8.4

Installed and working in 3.8.4 PL2

Just need to go to "upload plugin" instead of "import product" as usual... then edit the array included to the forum ID's you want to disable the censor in.

It doesn't works ni vb 3.8.7

Anyone can help me? Send me MP, please.

Thanks
