Block posting of specific URLs

[Streetjob]

Hello,

I am interested in blocking specific (defined by me) urls, where if a member attepts to post these urls, they will receive an error message and will not be allowed to make that post until the url has been removed.

Please advise if this is possible or where I can get such a feature.

Thanks!!!

We've always just added such urls to the censor list

Thanks but then the post will still go through. And there will either be nothing there to replace the url (if you did not put in a replace) or there will be the replace information e.g. ****. This is tacky in my opinion and would also affect all prior posts..

I now have rules in place that specific urls are not to be posted. I want to have users abide by these rules and prevent them from posting these urls in the first place.

Please help!

Thanks!

bump!

I've just run into a similar problem with yahoo redirect links but this was easily resolved by adding certain aspects of the URL (which were common to the redirect link but uncommon to normal ones) to the Replacement Variable Manager. It was a quick 10 second fix
