I’m using Word Replacer to insert HTML/JS code snippets into my site without WP screwing up the code with unwanted tags.
Works great so far.
Works, but not fully on comments

Great plugin! I love the concept….
… but unfortunately comments with ‘forbidden’ words can stil be placed when people use those names in their own name or emailaddress.
If that would be fixed this would be a 6-star plugin 😉
great
