How does this differ from generally flagged watch words under the admin panel in practice? I presume it doesn’t scan the public facing text but I’d have thought there’d be little difference in reporting unless you’ve noticed otherwise?
Doesn’t’ the flagged watch words only work on public posts? And isn’t it meant for stopping profanity? I never fully looked into that feature. This plugin scans PM’s and doesn’t let users know a keyword has been scanned and that it notified admins.
No they work anywhere mate and they’re “meant” for whatever purpose you want to tune them towards. I’d suggest that something informing the user that something has been flagged promotes more trust between users and staff.
We use a raft of watch phrases to stop people doing what you’re trying to stop here, we get questions about them every so often and people are happy to know in general terms what we’re screening for and why.
In that case, my plugin is useless I will look into your way of doing things. So you’re saying I can create a set of keywords that will be picked up in PM’s, and they will notify all admins?
No option to silently notify admins though, so I guess there is some uniqueness to the plugin
We have a unique type of business model, lots of conman in our industry. Auto-flagging and/or requiring approval would quickly reveal what can and cannot be said in a conversation, thus giving scammers the edge.
I kind of figured this plugin wouldn’t be useful to anyone else but me Thanks for answering.
