[How To] Give Your Members An Optional Swear Filter

Someone asked me about a feature I have on my site so I thought I would throw a quick how to up to show how I did it.

First you need to make a Child style of your main style. After you have done this you need to go into your replacement variable manager and set it up like this screen shot:

http://www.mustangevolution.com/gall...o/2459/cat/506

Please remember that you must allow members to be able to choose different styles by going to vBulletin Options > Styles and Language Settings > Allow Users To Change Styles

Also in that same area I have the style with the swear words censored enabled by default. This means guests have these words censored. You can choose either way.

I will provide some support if you need any but it is pretty straight forward... lemme know if you get it to work!

**Note** You need to disable the vBulletin censorship in vBulletin Options

Hopefully vB will have it built-in on their next version. It's a nice feature.

I would definitely like to see this as a standard feature in the next version of vBulletin. It would make things much, much easier. I mean, it's not that hard to add words to the swear filter by hand, but having a pre-made list would be a nice little touch.

I'd just like to bump this with something I figured out about this not to long ago. The method of censoring words via the replacement variable does not censor it from search engines. I'm guessing it's due to the search engines not crawling some parts of the style?
