I added the letter “U” to be replaced by “you” to stick to the text speak rule, spent 20 minutes figuring out how not to mess up “u-turn” :woman_facepalming:

darn, it’s still doing it to me!

Hang on, you spoke too soon! :joy:
Testing
My post looks ok now

Yeah, it seems to have started doing it to me again too.

Okay, we might be in the clear now…

If anybody needs me I’ll be setting up my stocks, hope everyone has their tomatoes :joy:

It’s still happening to me!

Which words is it happening on?

You
anything with the letter “u” in it (clearly I can’t actually type the offending letter but I think you’ll get what I mean!)

Edit: You seem to have sorted it now :slight_smile:

Still looks wrong on the preview but it’s displaying fine when actually posted

Phew, I think a refresh should fix it for anyone else still experiencing my Tuesday-BooBoo :woman_facepalming:

OMG this was just happening to me, thought my phone was on the fritz…

Glad to know I’m not the only one that it looked fine in edits and made no sense once I saved it…

I’ve just been catching up with the forum and having a little giggle at all the words with ‘you’s randomly in them. Thought I had stumbled across some kind of inside joke until I saw this :joy:

It’s a nifty function though. Hopefully with a couple of tweaks it’ll work like we want it to. :+1::slightly_smiling_face:

Several years ago I was a regular poster on a web forum where the mods introduced a super-strict anti profanity filter. Even the word “ass” wasn’t allowed. They thought it would be terribly amusing to make it change every instance of “ass” to read “Myleene Klass”.

Unfortunately, they forgot that this was a web forum for BASS players. Oh the carnage… :rofl:

You can set this one (theoretically) to ignore ones in the middle of words. I think it’s a little fiddly, but it’s definitely doable. :+1:

Thnx and thx are still working though, so that’s something. :slightly_smiling_face:
