Thread Name: Objection to Bawdy Song Titles in Forum Menu
Subject: RE: Objection to JohnMehlberger
If Jon or somebody wants to post a "filter-out" link for us before Jeff gets to it,
I can't do that with the current filter Joe. At least not for multiple "bad words".
As with other things, there are a lot of possible solutions. I would opt for a prefix in the title (eg, bawdy:) rather than filter on words but heaven forbid what would happen at the moment is you dared make a change to a thread title to include this "filtering term".
From then on, it's easy. Just have a checkbox next to filterout "include bawdy" which is unchecked by default (although that could be overridden by a member preference). I think with this system, the programming for the main listing would just need something along the lines of this adding (I'll use VB - not familiar with Cold Fusion):
if not bawdy then SQL=SQL " AND NOT Like 'bawdy:%'" end if
