Bug: Banned words fully visible in emails and search results

Question

I have banned words enabled and have tested that this works on question titles, question content and wall posts. However I have a problem that the banned words are still allowed in the outgoing emails.

For instance, a user intentionally insults another user by posting a banned word on their wall. The wall does not show the banned word, however the user still recieves the banned word in the email stating that a person has commented on their wall. This also occurs if the question/answer/comment has a banned word in it. It still shows in the email even though on the site it has * symbols replacing it.

Is there a way to enable the banned words to also be considered in outgoing emails and search results or is this a bug?

I have also found that the search results show the banned words as well - even in the question title.

I reposted the question specifically about the search results here:
http://www.question2answer.org/qa/26751/bug-banned-words-fully-visible-in-search-results
Then later found the solution and posted the code.

Answer 1

Found the solution to this, I had to change a few lines in /qa-include/qa-app-emails.php:

 

$blockwordspreg = qa_get_block_words_preg();

$mailer->Subject= qa_block_words_replace($params['subject'], $blockwordspreg);

$mailer->Body=qa_block_words_replace($params['body'], $blockwordspreg);

Someone down voted this? That's kinda sad :( I was just trying to post how I fixed the bug using the best of my knowledge (not quite up to writing plugins yet).

Answer 2

here is the solution for

 search results show the banned words as well and TO REMOVE below is the code

in qa-include/qa-app-search.php

find this:

if (!isset($result['title'])) {

if (isset($result['question']))

 

 

elseif (isset($result['page']))

$result['title']=$result['page']['heading'];

}

 

Change it to this:

 

if (!isset($result['title'])) {

if (isset($result['question']))

{

$blockwordspreg = qa_get_block_words_preg();

$result['title']=qa_block_words_replace($result['question']['title'], $blockwordspreg);

}

elseif (isset($result['page']))

$result['title']=$result['page']['heading'];

}
