Inappropriate Text - Simple way to test/reject user entered text based on obscenities - How ?

[andyhill]

I searched the forum for a simple way to reject obscenities, are there any examples out there ?

Hello, 

Perhaps you are talking about third-party services, or, please clarify.

I am happy to learn about what is out there, could we have a UniGUI solution in the future (less opportunities to be intercepted) ?

Hi, maybe this will help to apply some proposal for protection : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/273516/how-do-you-implement-a-good-profanity-filter

list with bad words (couple languages): https://github.com/LDNOOBW/List-of-Dirty-Naughty-Obscene-and-Otherwise-Bad-Words

where do you get these obscenities in unigui interface?

I am looking at USER input text (Supplier Names, Item Names, Customer Names etc...)

Thanks for the links - interesting.

So, this mean that all will be saved on DB.

Can you create some Server Side protection based on  examples from link above

From a coding point of view I can easily create the list, parse the list, reject matching words if necessary, BUT I did not want to type into my application all of the ugly words (plus I do not know them all, nor do I want to). It would have been nice to have an encrypted lookup to check questionable text against. Maybe I am old fashioned 🫣

eg.
if Obscene(UserText) then begin
  ShowMessage('Obscenities are not tolerated - Aborting !');
end else begin
  ...
end;

Yes I am sure there are URL offerings out there but I need to watch my pennies plus I am trying to limit URL services in my project.

What about a UniGUI Community project ?

For Your need, best solution will be AI.

We will wait for this option on unigui
