It might work if you use hook profile_start and code like this:
Code:
if ($_POST['do'] == 'updateprofile')
{
$vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('p', 'userfield', TYPE_ARRAY);
$fieldcontentbefore = array(
'aaa',
'ccc'
);
$fieldcontentafter = array(
'bbb',
'ddd'
);
$vbulletin->GPC['userfield'][$field] = str_replace($fieldcontentbefore, $fieldcontentafter, $vbulletin->GPC['userfield'][$field]);
}
but of course you need to set $field to something.
