Edit Censored Words List?

I accidently added a word I shouldnt've to the 'censored word list', actually -- just some spaces, which caused all the forum's posts to disappear.

Adding ********** causes problems too, but I clicked 'whole word only' and thankfully it came back.

Now I'd like to remove these from the list.

Can I fix this?

Just go to Admin > Posts and Topics > Censored Words, and remove the word you don't want to be censored - and the matching word it's replaced with. Then save - the blanking out of the row will remove that word.

Well, I wondered if there was a way to get at the actual list or replace the file with it with the original.

I think that'll be stored in your database, so you'd need to fiddle about with phpmyadmin.


Not certain of that, though.

I'm just kindof concerned, because if someone, say a junoir mod, enters a word in there that I don't know what it is, and messes up the forum posts because of it, it could be a hassle to fix.

Maybe I'm blind but I can't seem to find it in the database either.  :o

censor_proper and censor_vulgar in {db_prefix}settings

I'm in PhpMyAdmin and I see a list like this?

#
# Structure smf_ban_groups
# Structure smf_ban_items
# Structure smf_boards
# Structure smf_board_permissions
# Structure smf_calendar
# Structure smf_calendar_holidays
# Structure smf_categories
# Structure smf_collapsed_categories
# Structure smf_log_actions
# Structure smf_log_activity
# Structure smf_log_banned

I don't see it?

Sorry I am new to this.

on the left it is the table named smf-settings

* Arantor is confused why you'd go into the database, when the edit dialogue lists all the current censor triggers.

It does? It didn't seem to to me.

Let me see.. Hmm.. I guess it works that way after all.. how odd, it seemed to work entirely differently.

I'd enter a word, and then it would be done and disappear. I guess I was just mistaken in how it worked?

Is this issue resolved? I couldn't decide on whether or not to think it was from your last post. If solved, please mark it as so. If not, please explain.

Hi, I have another problem.

I marked a word for censoring into that "..." and checked the option "mark whole words only". My problem is that I shtill get "..." in the middle of the words that contain that word like aaa"..."aaaa.

How to fix this? SMF 1.1.11

Arantor

What *exactly*?

aaa...aaa shouldn't trip on the ... if whole words only is marked, assuming you have no mods that already changed it.

I am sorry but I couldn't fully understand your answer. Maybe is my English. :'(

My forum is in Bulgarian and the censored word is a part of other words which don't have to be censored. Example XXX is the censored word which I want to transform into YYY , But it is a part of another word like abcdXXXefj which is a normal word, no need to censore.

The manager of censored words change the word like this abcdYYYefj instead of leave it as it is. I don't want that.

Sp which option should I check about censored words?

Arantor

Please give me ACTUAL examples where it occurs on your forum, using the actual words there.

OK. I am writing them in Bulgarian.

еба - This is the word for censoring.
Дебати is the word that appears Д...ти.
