Hi, my forum appeared a lot of post with bad word and I am tired to delete them everyday

So, it is great if you can add a "bad word filter" feature , the bad word will appear as *** automatically

In addition, please consider about " delay between posts" 🙂

many thanks 😀

I'm sorry but wpFor doesn't have such function. For the comments you can check this plugin:

This addon is made by our team.

Hi Restius,

I'm sorry but not. We'll think about this feature. We may create a similar addon for wpForo or integrate with other word filtering solutions.

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.

I am wondering if a filter was created. I'd like to not have curse words appear in my forum. On my Facebook page, I can create a list of words that, if typed in a response to one of my posts, make it so that the post is hidden until I unhide it. I create the list of words which include all of the curse words as well as words having to do with politics (like "Trump" and "Obama") because I just don't want them to appear on my page. Also, the link provided by Martin, above, no longer works.

Thanks!
