Hi, i want to use a js code which replaces the content of the post that a user wrote with another one. if someone writes 'thanks' as post at any topic of my forum, i want to replace and say 'thank you very much'. how can i do that? thanks

Hi J0k3R^

You don't need JS to do this :)

Here are some screenshots (the forum used for the screenshot is in French but I think it works the same way)

Admin panel > General > Censure

You just add your word and the replacement and it will be OK ^__^

EDIT : You need to put "Thank*" and "Thank you very much". Actually it won't work with the same words :/

why i get this error?

So this is what the warning is telling you, if you put "Thanks" as the censored word you can not include "Thank,Thanks" etc. in the word you want it to come out to be. This may be a bit unclear.

ah i understood. but why they do that? :/ i needed to replace thank you with thank you very much xD

Juste write : Thank* for the word (add the * at the end) :)
This way it will change thank and all other words starting by thank ^^ (including thanks).

Try adding this javascript

Code:: $(function() { var c = document.querySelectorAll('.entry-content') for (i=0; i<c.length; i++) { c[i].innerHTML = c[i].innerHTML.replace(/thanks/g,'thank you very much'); } });

it will replace thanks to thank you very much (only if it's thanks, with Thanks it won't work)

Cool :)

Just be sure to know that if you post "Thankfull", it can replace your word :/.

ops

Code:: $(document).ready(function(){ var c = document.querySelectorAll('.entry-content') for (i=0; i<c.length; i++) { c[i].innerHTML = c[i].innerHTML.replace(/thanks/g,'thank you very much'); } });

Try.

Code:: $(function() { $('.entry-content').each(function(a, c) { c.innerHTML=c.innerHTML(/your words/i, "replace text"); }); });
