    Word Censor

    I know how to censor certain words from showing in the Admin CP,, options---censorship. I am having trouble censoring two words with a space

    Example .. Say I want to censor John Doe

    How can that be done if it's typed as shown without censoring each word individually? Another words if John was typed I would want that to show up without being censored.

    If my memory serves me well you put the the two word inside curly brackets {censored word}

      That's it. And then you have to rebuild the post cache.

      Or maybe it's not supposed to work with two words? It does work with single words

    You cannot censor phrases. Every space is considered a word break and you will end up with each word censored. You can only censor words.

        The idea has merit so I created an Improvement Request. I don't know how difficult it would be to implement. The censorship code process hasn't been updated in a decade.
