Is it possible to forbid word only in title?
I could set it to censored words and it’s fine.
But same word in text body is overwritten with *
AI-generated summary
The discussion revolves around the possibility of forbidding certain words in topic titles but not in body text. zbor asks if it’s possible to prevent words like ‘Urgent’ or ‘Please help’ in titles while allowing them in the body, noting that the current system flags such words in both areas. erlend_sh responds that this use case isn’t supported due to its niche nature. zbor explains that the goal is to discourage vague titles while allowing descriptive content in the body. Mittineague suggests that manual intervention by staff or TL3 members is more effective than automated systems, as poor titles often stem from new users who may not read instructions. zbor agrees, emphasizing that a targeted warning message could help users improve their titles. elijah recommends leveraging TL3 users to edit titles, highlighting the importance of community involvement in maintaining quality.
That use case is not supported. This is an extremely niche request; why do you need this?
I was thinking to keep title names descriptive and users tend to put in titles words like Urgent, Please help…
That doesn’t say anything about problem..
But I wouldn’t forbid those words in a post.
Whatever make them more intuitive to be descriptive and now is a great option with forbiding words that they appear like:
Title includes one or more of the censored words: testing
But then they also appear in the body like ****.
Because of the sentence that it start with Title includes… I thought it would be possible to do so.
But OK, if that is not an option it’s not a big deal.
I just thought I’m missing something.
There are times when a topic is started in “less than the best category” for it and times when there are “less than helpful” topic titles. I don’t think any code-automated way of dealing with the issue would work very well and that it requires hands-on correction. True, there are the educational modals, but I have my doubts about how many read them let alone learn from them.
Usually it is a newbie that hasn’t “got it” yet, though I have seen members that aren’t so newbie do it too.
Editing the topic title (and or moving it) can be done by Staff and TL3 members, or the OP if they have a mind to. Editing the topic title sends a Notification to the member, and I think in most cases they see this and realize what they could have done differently and do better from then on.
But for the more persistent members, a gentle nudge from a polite message should do the trick if they can’t take the hint from the Notifications.
I don’t think continued “poor topic titles / categories” should be an offense worth “punishment”, so I can’t say what should be done if / when a member persists.
I agree. Nobody read instructions.
That’s why I meant that this could be option because, as I said above, it already check title for such words.
If you forbid word “help” in the title and not in the body and then message appear:
Title includes one or more of the censored words: help, urgent, hurry, please
then it will read them and fix the title.
On the one hand it prevents putting those words when they are needed but on the other hand it’s always urgent 
Encourage your TL3 (“regular”) users to edit the titles for you.
