1. Is there anyway to import a list of well known spam words instead of entering them one by one, this website has a number of well known spam phrases that I would like to import, not all but there are a number of good ones

2. I have enabled anti spam, works well but I get the default Joomla 403 error, Under WAF>Security exception message customization I have entered a message but when I send a bad word on my site it still redirects to the Joomla 403 error message and not my custom message

ps, I can't find how to do the custom error message HTML template for this on your website, could you provide me the link so I can create a custom HTML message?

Hello,

  1. Yes and no. The first time you have to do it manually using Admin Tools interface, then you can simply export them and import them into a new website using the Importing/Exporting views. You could enter them directly in the database, but I highly discourage that, since operating directly on the database is a very dangerous operation, and you should do that if and only if you're comfortable working on databases.
  2. I just ran some tests and it work fine for me. Please remember that we simply throw a 403 error with a custom message, then it's up to Joomla (and the template you're using) to display the correct message. Sadly some of them have an hardcoded message, so your custom message won't be displayed.
    If you use the custom HTML template, do you have your custom message? If you want to edit the custom HTML template, you have to do a template override, you can find more information here
