I installed Version: 1.0.8, and I am using WordPress 4.8.1 .. plugin installed successfully, I have the WYSIWG option to redact sections of text. Though when I preview/publish, it shows the complete text.

The URL I published, http://ryan.brinkworth.id.au/2017/08/redact-test/
I redacted all but the first and last sentences of the body.

I have a few plugins installed.

If I define an "Automatic Redaction" for my name ("Brandon") to be replaced by a pseudo-name ("Bane") then when I write a post and include my name, authenticated users will see my name but unauthenticated users are shown my pseudo-name.

However, if I then go add a comment and in the comment I include my name, both authenticated and unauthenticated users are shown my name -- auto-redaction does not scrub my name from comments for unauthenticated users.

Of course, I could just moderate comments better. But then authenticated users can't read the result naturally, they too would see the censored version. Plus, I might miss one and mistakenly divulge my real name.

It would be a really nice change if Automatic Redaction worked in comments as well.

Additionally, it would be nice if it worked everywhere in a site (like the template-tags such as "This post posted by Brandon on May 28, 2013 @ 8am") -- however, most of that I can more easily edit to just not show to anyone.

An otherwise great plugin though, thank you! :)
