Monitoring Private Messages

[topianno]

Hello,
Is there a way to monitor certain language in private messages? For instance, when a certain word or phrase is used in a private message, the system emails the administrator with an alert.

We have had a historical problem with users causing problems on our forum using the private messaging feature. Is there a way or method of administering or controlling this feature in any way?

Thanks ahead of time!

There is a modification that allows admin to read PMs, but that is the only mod I can think of. There is also the Report Feature now available for PMs so let your users know that they should report such PMs and also let users know they will lose their PM privileges if they cause problems using the PM feature.

Hi,
I would be interested in the Mod. Is it a plugin or does it require some other script? How does it work?

I am interested in such a modification. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Best,

Remember they are called private messages for a reason :cool:

I installed the Private Messaging MOD and it works great! I was wondering if there is a feature that flags certain kind of language and emails the administrator?

Or is the only option to read through each individual message?

Thanks,
