Words being filtered that are not in the bad words file

Post by mhfinnegan »

Script URL:
Version of script: 1.7
Hosting company: web.com
URL of phpinfo.php:
URL of session_test.php:
What terms did you try when SEARCHING for a solution: bad words, priests

Write your message below:
I am using the default en.php bad words file from PHP Guestbook 1.7. It does not contain the word 'priests', yet whenever it is included in a guestbook post, it gets replaced with * * *. Since the guestbook is associated with a parish, this is annoying.

Looks like a mismatch, yes.

Try deleting this line from the en.php file:

Code: Select all

"p.i.s.s" => "* * *",
New posts should then not filter the "priests" anymore.
