Is there a way to highlight more than one word in a thread? Allow me to give you an example:

In the main Replika thread, if I add &hilit=Replika at the end of the URL, all the mentions of the term Replika will be highlighted which is awesome. But at the same time I’d like to also highlight the term Reaktor (preferably in a different color). Some people may have also referred to Replika as Replica, so I’d also like to highlight any mention of Replica. Also some may have referred to Reaktor as Reactor (literally no one, but you get the point). So I’d like to highlight any mention of the term Reactor as well.

You see where I’m going with this?

So I tried to separate the words I wanted to be highlighted with ; and it didn’t work. I used * and it didn’t work.

So is there a way to highlight multiple words/terms in a thread?

• If there is: How should I do it?
• If there isn’t: Why isn’t there?

Thank you.

If you use search, multiple terms are indicated by + eg

?keywords=reaktor+reactor+replika

So doing the same thing gives

viewtopic.php?p=9065758&hilit=reaktor+reactor+replika

Oh wow, thank you whyterabbyt . This ACTUALLY WORKED. I appreciate it.

One question: Is there a way to assign custom colors to different terms?

Sorry, no idea, but leaning towards 'probably not.' That's one where the definitive answer would have to come from Ben [KVR] himself.

Thank you whyterabbyt. You're probably right. Custom coloring is probably way too much. But your initial answer was perfect. It solved a problem I've always had. I really appreciate it.
