My site holds topics/posts in moderation when a user submits a post containing blocked words. However, the user receives no indication that their post is being held for moderation. So they re-post. And re-post.

Here’s what I’m looking to do:

1) user posts a topic with a blocked word (ex. “Namor”)
2) User clicks “Post”
3) A message appears on the page: “Your post is currently awaiting moderation, since it contains words blocked by our system.”
4) Post does not display for user or moderator until it is approved.

This is planned for a future release , I think the next big release??

I have a customization that does display a text message inline above the post, I just need to populate the space after the colon with the offending word:

“ERROR: Your topic cannot be posted because it contains the following banned words: namor“

I just need to populate the space after the colon with the offending word:

That might be some custom development and you might need to hire a developer for that.

It wouldnt be that hard I am sure there is a filter to change that.

I’ve changed my mind — all I’m looking to do is have a message display when a message is held for moderation — we have users that keep wondering what happened to their post when a “trigger word” holds it for moderation.

@lvictor Can you share your customization? (displaying a text message inline above the post when user submits a post with banned words)
