WebPurify™ is an accurate and efficient
profanity filter web service. With WebPurify, the profanity list updates automatically to maximize accuracy. In addition to scanning for profanity, WebPurify allows the user to add their personal list of words to filter.
Our WordPress plugin has two options:
a. Replace every character of any words deemed profane by WebPurify with a "*" symbol and work with BuddyPress as well. (default)
b. Prevent users from entering profanity entirely with an alert asking them to correct their text.
Language Support for English, Arabic, French, German, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Thai, Turkish, Chinese, Korean, Punjabi
