need help with removing [Rs]

[Mr Happy]

not really do, you can implode the array and the preg_escape them like so

$tags = array('RS','MS','FS','RS MU','MU');

$preg_compat = implode("|",$tags);

preg_replace("/\([[" . $preg_compat . "]\])?/","",$string); //UNTESTED 

what you want me to do, give you a cookie lol. i did say untested, example purposes and all that shizzle

I've tried something like this but it gets messy. You have people who have stuff like [RS/HF/FS/MU] or RS-HF or [RS|HF][MULIT] or RS+1 or RS*3 and lots of other stuff which mess with your regex and have to take into consideration. Have a look through some posts on WBB and the prefixes they use. I tried but you just get people posting the craziest patterns you'd never think of which affect it

In this case where he has control your is obviously better. I'm not arguing that fact.

You would need to place litewarez code in Includes/functions_content.php

After

        return preg_replace($censors['match'], $censors['replace'], $text);
    } 

and change $string to $text in LiteWarez code



<<edit
Realised this is going to remove any tags in posts aswell, I will make a complete mod when litewarez code works

[litewarez]

yea you can do practically any string manipulation with regex, you just have to know all the modifiers and how there used to your advantage, such as lookahead and behind, and "or plus" stuff and that :/ works a treat if your skilled and willing to have good go at it :/

[Gavo]

There is some error in the code litewarez gave i think.

I started making the complete mod to post, but some error in the function


Compilation failed: unmatched parentheses at offset 24



This isnt working in viewtopic either, is it the regex?

viewtopic.php
after

// Replace naughty words in title
$topic_data['topic_title'] = censor_text($topic_data['topic_title']); 

add

$topic_data['topic_title'] = preg_replace("/^(\[A-Z{2}\])/","",$topic_data['topic_title']);
