Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Replacement Words In Posts

A few members were asking for a better censor system when it came to replacing bad words with good words.

This hack will replace any word you specify even if the word in question is typed with random uppercase and lowercase letters.
It still can be circumvented but I guess that's why you have moderators.


Installing
Download the product XML. Go into to your ACP --> Plugins & Products --> Manage Products click "[Add/Import Product]". Browse to product-ah_word_replace.xml and click "Import".

Settings
ACP --> vBulletin Options --> Censorship Options
There should be two new options titled "Word Replacements (Find)" and "Word Replacements (Replace)".

what about replacement variables?

I'll explain how it works.
Let's say you had these words for "Word Replacements (Find)".
suck|bad|whatsup

Now for "Word Replacements (Replace)"
stink|good|hello
================================================== ===

This message "whatsup you suck bad"
Will now be "hello you stink good".

Replacement variables replace a word no matter where it is. This hack only replaces words in the posts.

It's working. I just need help wording the descriptions in the vBulletin Options.

Thanks harmor19

*******Clicks Installed******

Will there be one to not sensor globally? Like specify where this can and can't work later?

[Hornstar]

Arr cooool ^^ so i can change the swear word 'fu**' to 'beep' so if they type this: get fu**ed it will say: get beeped

Is that correct. and i can make as many as i like?

That means this also has seo benefits ^^

If someone types in slang or abbreviations, then this will be able to expand that to full, and will benefit your site ^^

Great work.

Thanks a lot, harmor

But, i have vb 3.6.5 and your hack doesn't work

When i put the bad words in a post, the good words don"t replace the bad words. And in vbulletin options, i've separated words by "|", as you say.

Any idea ?
