 * Hello.
 * Is there any way to have a very basic word filtering when a user posts some listing?
 * For example we would like to block all listing that contain Astrology, guns, 
   smoking stuff, adult etc etc.
 * Nothing fancy, just a basic filtering that will flag the listing for moderation.
 * Otherwise we will have to enable moderation for all listing as default and that
   is very hard to do, daily.
 * An easy way could be the filter to use the WordPress Comment Blacklist? Just 
   an idea….
 * Thank you

 * Hey [@dimalifragis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dimalifragis/),
 * I’m sorry, we’re currently unable to provide a filtering option, so for now, 
   you’ll have to manually check the submitted listings. But in any case, I’ll forward
   this to our product development team.
 * Regards,
    Mahdi.
