mod_pottymouth how to filter out links?

[rocksystem]

Hello, I have difficulty filtering spam links like https://myspamlink.com/sompath. When I add myspamlink or https://myspamlink.com/sompath into blacklist_en.txt neither got replaced with ****.

Remember to restart ejabberd, or at least restart that module after you edit the blacklist file.

From what I see, this module compares words, not parts of words. For example, I put in the blacklist file:

myspamlink

and this is the result:

• Visit myspamlink --> Visit ****
• Visit https:// myspamlink .com/sompath --> Visit https:// **** .com/sompath
• Visit https://myspamlink.com/sompath --> Visit https://myspamlink.com/sompath

So, it is required to add the exact word to the blacklist:

https://myspamlink.com/sompath

Then, if the spammer uses a slightly different URL, or appends some character different that a blackspace, then it isn't filtered.
