> [@LinkBlock - URL Protection](https://extensions.streamer.bot/docs?topic=1232): > > Description LinkBlock blocks unwanted messages that contains real URLs. But: it does NOT block typos with forgotten spaces between word.word but will block word.com because this is a real TLD. It does NOT block word...word (typical writing by many users) You can whitelist URLs like your DC or YT channel or any other you want. By default Mods and VIPs are allowed to post links, it can be disabled. You can select how to handle messages with URLs either delete only or timeout user. You can … Please explain how you can make the notification messages come from a bot ---

You need to go to the LinkBlock action and double click on the `Execute Code (LinkBlock)` Sub-Action. Scroll down to lines 58 and lines 63 in that code, replace the ‘False’ with ‘True’ as is shown in the picture below. Then press `Save and Compile` and lastly, ensure you press `Save` at the top of StreamerBot ![image](https://extensions.streamer.bot/uploads/default/original/2X/1/1d82d6f30547a360ae618aad35fdbb27d00776e9.png) ---

Hey, I probably discovered a bug, when I provide permit to a user, his message will be deleted after a minute, but I want it to stay in Chat as he received permit. Can this be changed? ---

i reworked the script, so any URL is blocked, regardless of formating, at least any url twitch actually recognize as url ```auto using System; using System.Text.RegularExpressions; using System.Collections.Generic; public class CPHInline { private bool IsTwitchEmote(string input) { // Regular expression to match Twitch emote URLs string emotePattern = @"https:\/\/(www\.)?twitch\.tv\/emote\/\w+"; return Regex.IsMatch(input, emotePattern); } private bool IsWhitelistedUrl(string url, List whitelist) { // Convert wildcard entries in the whitelist to regex patterns foreach (string entry in whitelist) { // Escape special regex characters and replace '*' with '.*' to match any character string pattern = "^" + Regex.Escape(entry).Replace("\\*", ".*") + "$"; // Check if the URL matches any of the whitelist patterns if (Regex.IsMatch(url, pattern, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)) { return true; } } return false; } public bool Execute() { string permitUser = CPH.GetGlobalVar("permitUser", false); // Whitelist containing allowed URL patterns (supports wildcards) List whitelist = new List() { "https://www.twitch.tv/aaskjer/clip/*", // Allow any clip URL from this user "www.twitch.tv/aaskjer/clip/*", "https://tinyurl.com/Birger-Caps", "https://discord.gg/FvffUkmne3" }; // List of suspicious keywords that could indicate spam List suspiciousKeywords = new List() { "viewers", "fame", "followers", "subs", "click here", "viewer", "StreamBoo", "Ch̍eap", "primes", "Best viewers", "Best followers", "Best subs", "Buy followers", "Promo-Code", "Aloha!

Do you know if there is a way to block links that end in .RU because bots have seemed to stop using .com recently and it would be great to just block those all together. ---

i suggest you to use [TwitchLinkGuard - Block unwanted links](https://extensions.streamer.bot/t/twitchlinkguard/2145) since LinkBlock seems abandoned ---
