What would be the best/easiest way to have specific words and phrases automatically replaced -- for instance u -> you, r -> are, ur -> your.

It drives a number of people absolutely batty (myself included) and I'd like to use a censorship option that would replace those words automatically.

Any suggestions or can you point me to a mod that might do this? I'd searched and didn't find what I was looking for (except for one mod that didn't work for me, but changed everything in all the posts to lowercase).

Thanks for your help and suggestions.

Did you try the Replacement Variables Option? You can do it by going to:

Admin CP --> Styles & Templates --> Style Manager --> All Style Options --> Replacement Variables

yes, that makes the forum go nuts since even if I put the leading and following spaces after the u it repaces all u's throughoug the sit with "you" so it messes up the forum badly.

is there a formatting code I should use to represent a leading space before "u" for example?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
