So, After a week or so of skinning/modifying commentics, I thought I was all done. However, at the last minute, I decided to test the swear words feature (this will be a site for kids), and realized it wasn't working at all!!!
I was about to tear my hair out, but I decided to look into it instead
I don't know why, but for some reason I had to delete some extra space after each word. I tried to figure out what exact letter it was appending to each word (didn't seem to be a blank space exactly), so I just stripped out the last character.
Now it works perfectly for me. Maybe I am the only one that had this problem.
Here is the code I ended up using (almost the same for the mild words).
If anyone had this problem feel free to use:
