New Posting Features - Censor List Replacing

My first product! This product will take a list of words and replace the first with the second in an easy to manage way.
This can be enabled and disabled and whilst disabled all words changed will reverse back to the original.
Also, whilst editing posts the original words will still be there as they are replaced at runtime.

This should be very simple to install just import the XML file and add words to your list via the admincp.

Howto add words to be replaced.
If you wanted to replace cat with dog and fish with spoon it would look like this:
cat,dog;fish,spoon

Enjoy guys and please mark as installed!

Updated
- You can now show users that can moderate the word that has been replaced.

Installed and works. Seems to be a lag in the way it works though. When you post a message it shows the words you want changed, but a page refresh shows the words you want them changed to. Not a big deal though.

Glad I could help! This is my first mod so it won't be perfect.
I'll have a see on how I can improve that then!

Good job on your first mod. I have always wondered why this wasn't the way the word censor work anyway.

Thanks again.

You're welcome, thanks for the kind words

Thanks, if this will work on links, then that will be awesome! Thanks.

Just wondering tho, how heavy is this hack on the server? (on a very large and busy site)

Thanks again.

Because it is a censor. To replace words with a different word with only default vBulletin, you should use Replacement variables.

I created this as a faster method than replacement variables (They take ages to put up multiple replacements).

Where in the admincp do you edit the list, looked under censorship options but cant see where im meant to edit the lists

Cheers

Should be towards the bottom of the options list, "Censor Replacement List".

I will be installing this later tonight on my test forum...was just curious, is it possible to replace multiple words when used together? I'd like to use this for replacing racial slurs and such.

For example:

"porch" and "monkey" alone are two harmless words and do not need replaced, however, I would like to replace "porch monkey" with something that won't spark a huge fight.

Thanks! If this works out well, I think it'll be a very popular mod.

attempted install & failed to have it work... the original replacement variables still overrode my input.
