In case that a bad word is detected, one of the following actions can be taken:

 

Remove - the bad word is removed from the entered text with no substitution
Replace - the bad word is removed and replaced with a predefined string
Report abuse - a report is created in CMSDesk -> Tools -> Abuse report
Request moderation - the post is submitted to approval before being published; this happens even in case that the forum, message board or blog is not moderated by default
Deny - a warning message will be displayed to the user when they try to post the inadequate text, listing which words should be removed

 

The following table shows which actions are available for each of the supported modules:

 

 

Blog comments

Forums

Messaging

Message boards

Remove

Replace

Report abuse

 

Request moderation

 

Deny

 

In case that there is more than one bad word detected in input text and the words have different actions set, the actions will be taken according to their hierarchy. Remove, Replace and Report abuse actions are independent, i.e. the actions can be taken simultaneously. Request moderation is stronger than Report abuse and Deny is the strongest of all.

 

The following list shows which actions will be taken in some specific cases in order for you to easily understand the actions hierarchy:

 

Remove and Replace - the first one will be removed and the second one will be replaced with the defined substitute
Remove, Replace and Report abuse - the first one will be removed, the second one replaced and an abuse report will be logged
Remove, Replace and Request moderation - the first one will be removed, the second one will be replaced and the post will have to be approved
Report abuse and Request moderation - the post will have to be approved and no abuse report will be logged
Deny and any other - the text is left as it is, but produces an error message
