    Block spam ads / posts based on keyword

    This is a very easy and effective solution for users who would like to automatically block spam ads based on specific keywords. Very very useful for sites that allow ad posting without registration.

    Open Step2.php. Before ?> <div id="step2"> add the following code:

    Code:
    $content = $postvals['post_content'];
        $keywords = array('abortion', '*****', 'pills');
        foreach ($keywords as $keyword) {
            if (stripos($content, $keyword) !== false) { 
                die ("<h1 class='dotted'>Ad Blocked</h1><br><p>Your ad contains content that is against the terms and conditions of this website and has therefore been blocked. Please press the back button and change your ad.</p>");
            }
        }
