Support Forum
I'm using simplepress for a private invite-only message board.
Quite a few of my board members have a grudge against a specific individual, and have posted his name in numerous threads. Though this is a private message board, the forums are now ranking on the first page of google for searches on this person's name, which has now resulted in my being sued for slander and defamation.
I've advised users not to post people's real names on the board, and have had to painstakingly go back and edit posts where this person's name and business name are mentioned.
I'm thinking, instead of having to go through all that, perhaps a word substitution feature in the moderation dashboard would be nice. For example, I can make a list of prohibited words, and when a user posts these words, the board automatically changes the text to read something else, or censors it. For example, if someone types in the F-word, it posts as F--- instead.
This would make moderation easier without the need to constantly police posts.
