I have upgarded SmartfoxserverPRO 1.6.2 and Theochat application. I added "ho" into the bad words list with a space behind and after, but it allows me to type "ho" and not count it as a badword. Is this a bug in SFS or something that i'm missing?
If you add " ho " it will not detect "ho" because they are not the same thing.
Btw, is "ho" too short as a bad word and it will pose problems with other words containing it. We don't recommend using syllables as they are too common (house, whole, chorus, show, thousand... too many!)

Hi,
this topic has already been discussed several times.
You can add server side custom logic if you want to extend the word filtering.
