Frequently Asked Questions:-

Can we filter censor words in Activities and Activities comments?

Yes, You can.

Can we filter censor words in Private Messages?

Yes, you can

Can we censor words in Group forums?

Yes, you can.

How do I add multiple words to the profanity list? Do I separate them by comma or new line?

Please use a comma to separate words.

Does it work with the BuddyBoss platform and theme?

Yes, It works well with the BuddyBoss platform.

Is there any limitation on the number of words in the filter?

There is no such limit. For performance reasons, we recommend keeping it in the range of 100s and not thousands. We use regular expressions for words matching and using a huge list will slow down the site.
