False positives

[noodle-t]

I am seeing a number of words and phrases that are wrongly identified as profane. For example:
shoe
as sure
I have a hole in my pocket
album
coke
scrape

Do you have any ideas how to address these? I'll send you something if I can come up with a solution.

I am getting escaped for word "analytics" as it contains "anal". Is there any solution?

[developerdino]

Yeah this is an interesting problem - I'll need to look into how I've solved this in the past with other words. I'll try to look into this a bit more in the next few days when I have some time as it's been awhile since I looked into this package.

I'm having the same issue. "Madison Bumgardner" would be flagged as profanity even though it's a simple name. My workaround right now is to load in a different config and remove some of the words that aren't as obvious. Maybe adding settings to skip specific checks could help here. For example, "bum" stand alone, but not in the middle of a word would flag it. If you think it's a good idea I could possibly PR it.

[developerdino]

I'm happy for you to create a PR for this idea, not sure how it would work though as there are checks that occur to find profanity with spaces between and other symbols as well. Have a look at the tests to see these in action.

Some more words on the list.

1. assignment - > "ass"
2. document -> "cum"
3. get it - > "tit"

OK, I think I'll have to do an upgrade to this package as it seems it is still in use by several projects.

Maybe I'll set up a project for a version 2 of this package.

I'm thinking an improved checker which doesn't catch normal words like document, assignment, etc. Or words in sentences, so no boundary jumping.

Support for PHP versions 7.2+ only as >7.1 is end of life.

Please let me know any other features you would like.

I've setup a Github Project https://github.com/developerdino/ProfanityFilter/projects/1 to work on features for the new version. Please comment and let me know what you would like within this new version and I'll see if we can get this working better for everyone. I've added all the existing issues in there with a few requirements as well.
