New Posting Features - Block Censored Words in Posts by BOP5 VB4

By BirdOPrey5 / Qapla.com

Version 1.3

For people who don't want to see censored text (******) in their posts this mod will prevent a user from even submitting a new post or thread that has any word that would be censored. They will be forced to change it or it simply won't post. (Now works on post edits as well.)

You can demo this by trying post in the Testing Forum at Qapla.com. You can try posting the "F" word or other major curse words which are censored here.

Options included to limit checking on thread titles or only post bodies, or both. Also option to use on specific forums instead of all forums on your site.

Works on all vBulletin versions out there, VB 3.6.x through 4.2.x and will work on 4.3.x I'm sure as well.

I'd like to thank kh99 for helping me find the right hook to use on this mod.

Nope, it still shows %1$s.

Maybe the fact that the phrase is not a Front-End error message phrase, has something to do with that? I am not sure about which kind of phrases support replaceable parameters! Or perhaps the standard_error function has an issue?

[BirdOPrey5]

Usually when I need to find out how a vbulletin function works I search the source code for:
function functioname

Such as

function vbdate

And it has ALWAYS worked. But this time I can't seem to find any function setup of the vbphrase function. No idea why but that would be where to start looking.

That's because vbphrase is not a function. It's a variable.

In any case, I figured out a way to solve the problem. Instead of :

standard_error($vbphrase['blockpostbop5']);

I used:

$errormessage=construct_phrase($vbphrase['blockpostbop5'], $non_censored, $censored);
standard_error($errormessage);

Of course, I have edited your phrase accordingly and added {1} and {2} for the two parameters.

Joe, many thanks for your help, appreciated!
