Token Replacement is a boon to the world. Thanks Stefen & Sebastian!

In an effort to reduce bots harvesting or scanning for email addresses, I'd love to see the portal emails in the Privacy and Terms of Use pages obscured, obfuscated, cloaked, hidden or whatever other term you wish to use. This would be helpful elsewhere too.

My idea is to create several new tokens, in addition to [Portal:Email] and [User:Email], something like: [Portal:EmailCloaked] and [User:EmailCloaked]. I realizethis is probably something that needs be done in DNN core and can make a Gemini request/suggestion, but wanted to ask if this was the right approach or to see if there was another way of doing this?

To actually do the clocaking, I recall that some module (Links?) already automatically cloaks any email address it sees. (Personally I just use a simple javascript fragment, but I presume that won't work for some places tokens get put into.) If nothing else using HTML special characters (Entities) might help.

Can anyone suggest a better way to accomplish this in a general way that doesn't require hand editing the Languages file and various modules for all my various web sites?

John, great idea, please create an enhancement suggestion in the public issue tracker (2nd from top) at support.dotnetnuke.com (as soon as back online). Thank you!

Juan, nice idea.  I would also like to see the token replacements enhanced to include session parameters, querystring params, cookie values etc..  I did put in an enhancement request in Gemini for those things.  Though I am not sure how often anyone goes through those, so I am not expecting to see it anytime soon.

you need to convince Stefan, who already implemented it for use in FnL
