Roarfeed autocorrect

[Yossarian]

I realise this is probably more a logistical thing but just in case it's not…

When I posted a comment the other day I realised straight away that I'd incorrectly spelt the name of our CEO (I have some excuse for this - I have a friend who spells that name ies so out of habit I do it sometimes with Stephen Humphreys). I was about to go and edit my post but noticed that it had been autocorrected - happy days! When I was looking at the forum on roarpost last night, I saw that the same post had the original incorrect (Humphries not Humphreys) spelling displayed.

Is this just a limitation of what can be presented in the roarpost app?

Stephen Humphreys' name is automatically corrected by the Forum software. Tigergran actually suggested that we use the same system that blocks out profanities to automatically correct for people incorrectly spelling his name. In the database your original misspelling of his name is still there, it's just that the forum detects it and displays the correct spelling.

RoarFEED doesn't include this, although in theory it could and i've just added it to the list of things to look into.

Okay thanks Kul. Just wanted to bring it up but sounds like you are very much across this already.
