specific word replacement

I know how to replace a list of words with *.... but what if I want to replace words on a word-by-word basis?

"Cat " to "Dog"
"Bear" to "Pig"
"XXX" to "YYY"

etc?

Is that possible?

Sure, just use a plugin to do a str_replace. I think I've written the code for this quite a few times - here's a copy from another thread:

PHP Code:


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

It should work in vB4, I think.

So to make a plugin I go to

Plugins & Products > Add new Plugin

Then I need:

Product type: ?
Hook Location: ?
Title: Custom Word Replacement
Execution Order: ?

Plugin PHP Code

PHP Code:


		
			
$word = array(

'word 1',

'word 2',

);

$link = array(

'Replacement 1',

'Replacement 2',

);

$this->post['message'] = str_replace($word, $link, $this->post['message']);

--------------- Added [DATE]1266066243[/DATE] at [TIME]1266066243[/TIME] ---------------

or did I get the replacement values wrong? I don't understand what $link and $word do.

Here are instructions on how to create a plugin to Replace Words in the pagetext.

I installed this and thought it was working great.. but for some reason, the Replace Word postdata plugin causes a weird error.

With this enabled, when you move a thread from one forum to another.... the first post gets stripped of data.

wtf is that all about?!

Here is my php code:

PHP Code:


		
			
$search = array(
'this1',
'this2',
);
$replace = array(
'that1',
'that 2',
);
$this->post['pagetext'] = str_replace($search, $replace, $this->post['pagetext']);

Any ideas out there?

I've never had any problems with mine. The difference between ours is what we apply it to (pagetext versus message), so perhaps that has something to do with it.

how do you do that?

I need it in terms a 6 year old can understand :)

What do you mean? I'm talking about the difference in our plugins. I posted what I use in post 2 and I do a replace for $this->post['message'] whereas you do a replace for $this->post['pagetext']

so the code stays the same, I just replace 'pagetext' with 'message'?
