I have a used goods listing app ( like craigslist) for my local community. I want to prevent certain words from being used within the listing - my goal is to prevent the app from creating listings of illegal sales like guns etc…
Add a sanitization column checking the content, and show that one to your users.
You can use JS code (your own) or Experimental code (e.g. with a library from keywords:profanity - npm search (npmjs.com)).

Do you have just some words to prevent from being used? Do you want to prevent them from being created or just hide them from the public?
yes, I want to prevent any listing containing any banned(wording I do not want on my app) words from being able to post the listing
Maybe just an error message saying “banned content- can not list”
It sounds like you have a good idea, however I am very new to this and would need a more detailed understanding of how to accomplish this, if you could spare the time!
Do you already have the list of words to be banned? Is it a long list, if you have already constructed it?
Yes, I have a list, and it is about 750 words so far.
I found a solution here:
