I'm trying to make a longsword, but instead of using your strength bonus, it uses the character's wisdom modifier. I've tried making it as both a weapon and as a wonderous item, but both run into problems. Does anyone have any ideas?
Currently the closest you can get is by homebrewing a magic longsword with the modifier
Bonus - Magic Item Attack with Wisdom
Unfortunately, this will cause all magic weapons to use Wisdom as their modifier, not just that sword. But it does the job so long as the character doesn't use other magic weapons, or so long as they leave it unequipped when making rolls for other magic weapons (equipping the item is what applies the modifier.)

It would be simpler to just leave it as plain text and let the player adjust their attack and damage rolls for that weapon by customizing that specific weapon.
