Important Badword2 - myth or it really works?

Yes, but it's also answer to a support question:

Do not use it. It will be removed because of it probably does not work and hasn't been developed for a long time.

Hmm.. That brings one thing into my mind: You can probably use Joomla content plugin to filter out the bad words. I've not tested it, but we have support for Joomla content plugins.

I tend to leave anything even remotely resembling support issues in the Support forum whether they delve into the realm of the off topic or not.

I feel awkward continuing this discussion, under the support category, about the feasibility of using third-party, non Kunena products. However, as Matias has suggested, there may be external components that will do the trick. I'm not aware of any standard content filter plugin that ships with Joomla.

I haven't the time to experiment, but in answer to the original request, you might like to look at Rereplacer .

i have in the last few months experimented with a few of the joomla badword plugins. one of them, WordCensor has integration instructions for Kunena 1.08 as at the moment the joomla plugin support doesnt work in Kunena. It would be good if one of these was permanently integrated and maintained by kunena team as part of the kunena board.

- WordCensor ( www.mlwebtechnologies.com/index.php?opti...=view&catid=6&id=832 )
- JD Mouthwash ( www.joomingdales.com/JD-Mouthwash/JD-Mou...h-now-available.html )
- Rereplacer
- JBehave ( www.jfriendly.net/ )

Sounds like it is not dead end peetree21, thanks for your findings. Let's hope that developers will put this into next release or better, patch.

Once, again, thanks everybody for all your efforts here. It was a pleasure to receive so many comments. At least, now, situation is clarified.

rereplacer is god.

So this works right? Otherwise I will use a different forum.

Are there some news in this topic?
Is a wordfilter for Kunena availible?
Which is best?
Kind regards

"Support" - for want of a better term - for the obsolete Badword filter was withdrawn as a Kunena configuration setting in K 1.5.8. AFAIK this plugin never worked with Kunena. AFAIK this plugin did not even work with Fireboard. If you find something that works, please let us know.

do you know what would be good, if somehow we could leverage the JomSocial word filter plugin and have that filtering the words throughout the forum somehow. it seems a bit of a waste to have that running for JomSocial and another solution for Kunena.
