Description

The Moderation plugin filters posts, pages, and comments against configurable lists of prohibited keywords, blocking sensitive content before it goes live on your site. Aimed at network admins, open comment blogs, or active communities, the plugin centralizes moderation rules in one panel accessible to super admins, logging each occurrence and eliminating manual content-by-content review.

    Admin sets terms that trigger automatic blockage in any post.
  • Comment moderation

  • Post and page filtering

  • WordPress Multi-site support
