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)".

I tried to fix this problem, and I'm just completely stumped. I got the code down to this:

PHP Code:

$array1 = explode("|", $vbulletin->options['ah_word_replace_find']);
$array2 = explode("|", $vbulletin->options['ah_word_replace_replace']);

$this->post['message'] = eregi_replace($array1, $array2, $this->post['message']); 


I think it *should* work. It's no longer making everything lowercase. But the replacements simply aren't working. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

I tried replacing eregi_replace with str_replace (would be case sensitive though) to no avail. I tried hard coding the find and replace words in the function call, and it works just fine, so the problem seems to lie in the fact that $array1/$array2 or the $vbulletin->options['ah...'] strings aren't being set (they're populated in the database though).

Any chance of a version 3.6.8 update? Please?

I also had the same problem -- I installed, and it converted every letter in all my posts to lower case, but didn't change the words I was trying to replace. So I had to uninstall.

It's a great idea and I'd love to see it working!

has the problem with it turning everything into lowercase been fixed ?

great release and would love to use it, but it nocks out all my images and wont let me post anything with [img] would love to get an upgrade of this!!

this looks like a very useful mod; however I haven't been able to get it to work with my board I have 3.6.5

I added this mod and all my posts became lowercase.

I did the fixes someone posted in the code and got all my posts back to normal.

However now everything is fine but, the mod is just not working. :down:

We used the phbb replace mode extensively before moving to VB, and would love a VB 3.6.8 version of this mod that works, I'll pay anyone that gets it working 25$.

If not this mod are there any other options?

I got the exact same issue about the lower case! Uninstalled.

Doesn't work on 3.6.8 level 2 patch. Also wouldn't show anything linked to photobucket, which was strange. I had to uninstall it to show everything again.

Looks like it needs an update to 3.6.8!!!

Can you replace words with a smilies image that has a sensor banner.
