You might want to have some control over the words and/or expressions sent on the Live Chat you are hosting. With that in mind, you can use the Profanity filter.

How to do it on the Live Chat

1 - Go to the EDIT CHAT tab then, on the Advanced Settings, Profanity Filter:

2 - There is a list of SUGGESTED words and/or expressions in the Profanity list, which gives you the freedom to personalize it according to your preferences or the purposes of your chat.

*Remember to SAVE any changes

3 - Then, you have the following options:

  • Replace with **** - if a word included on your profanity list is sent, **** will be displayed instead of the word.

  • Block - if a word included on your profanity list is sent, the sender will be blocked and won’t be able to send another message unless you unblock the person.

  • None - the profanity filter is off.

IMPORTANT:

Changes made on the Profanity filter might take a few minutes to reflect in the public part of the chat.

Also, the list changes according to the language defined in the site settings.
