   Hi all!
   I want to process the post content before it is written to the database upon saving a post. This means I cannot use filters because they only work on rendering the data (when retrieved from DB)... I must thus use an action hook. add_action('save_post', 'myFunction'); only parses the post_id and not the content. does anyone have any pointers how I should take care of this?

   I want also modify the content before send it in the database

   for instance, When user write "N:\repository\ ..." I want to change it by "file://///servername/repository/ ..."

   Any idea?

   add_action('save_post','myfunction')
   function myfunction{$content=str_replace('...','...',$content);}

   thanks in advance

   Maybe you could use WordPress shortcodes instead?

   Take a look at this thread. It concerns almost the same question.
