So I have decided to try out discourse’s standard plan on a free trial and I did so in a new window I added some random words to the watched words section and put some as silence then I went and made a second account VIA incognito and then made a post featuring the watched word in the silence and It flagged the post I went to the admin dash and accepted the flag but system never silenced them so I did it again and on the second time it silenced why did it no do it on the first one?
AI-generated summary
kyle987 is experiencing an issue with Discourse’s auto silence regex feature. They created a post with a watched word set to silence, but it wasn’t silenced the first time. Canapin suggested that the anti-spam feature might have flagged the post before the watched word trigger, and requested a screenshot for further investigation. However, kyle987 later realized that the issue was due to forgetting to add the watched word to the original post, and it worked as expected when they added it.
Hard to say without seeing what happened exactly. If you’re new to Discourse you may have missed some information.
For example (I don’t think it’s likely to happen), the anti-spam feature could have automatically flagged the new post before the watched word trigger.
Can you post a screenshot of what you see at /review?additional_filters=%7B%7D&sort_order=created_at&status=all?
Not at the moment i realized my issue when i made the post orignally i forgot to add a the watched word so it never did it then i did so it worked
