Additional Stuff:

Credit for auto updater functions goes to Dr. Mckay
New regex in 3.1.0 by Martin Ille - http://regexlib.com/REDetails.aspx?regexp_id=1057
A new regex system is used in versions 3.0.0 and forward. The credit for this regex goes to Eric Wai Chan at http://regexlib.com/REDetails.aspx?regexp_id=2841.
You need the colors library to compile.
It's like the IP Chat Block plugin, but for URL's.
The original plugin (Filtre d'URL dans le chat | URL Chat Filter) is for Eventscripts but I did not copy any code from it, I give the author credit however.
Credit for the regex goes to the regex provided by r4cc00n at http://regexlib.com/REDetails.aspx?regexp_id=1374.
Credits for the whitelist go to the IP Chat Block plugin, as I reviewed his code for the trie setup.
Credit also goes to everyone in the IRC that helped me with this.

Re: URL Chat Block

can this plugin block links which not contains "www." and/or "http(s)://" ? also can it detect link like "some . awesome . website . cc" ?
it's a very hard work to detect url in chat messages... so may it be just a simple url blocker

Re: URL Chat Block

You should use a regular expression instead of just checking for some toplevel domains.

Maybe this suffices.

Code:

(?<http>(http:[\/][\/]|www.)([a-z]|[A-Z]|[0-9]|[\/.]|[~])*)

Re: URL Chat Block

Do admins have immunity? It would be great if this stopped regular pubs from posting URLs, but as an admin I should be able to post them if desired.

It does that, it detects most of the common parts in the url, like the .com/.cc/.co.

Yes, admins do have immunity

I think the way I'm doing it is easier since most of the regexes don't detect all or just are not compatible with sourcemod; this would be the easiest and the most effective way

Re: URL Chat Block

The regular expression i linked to is much more effective than just checking for some common url patterns. I could easily post a link like google.de/google/is/your/friend, since you didn't check the .de toplevel domain. The regex would filter that out either and sourcemod is pretty standard with regex compatability.

Re: URL Chat Block

Hi,
Is there a log system in a txt file in order to know the people who put a url?

It now does. Plugin updated.

Code:

Added CVAR sm_urlchatblock_log - Enable or disable the logging of people's URL blocks.

Re: URL Chat Block

There should be an option to write to the sender's chat a normal chat message, so he will think that the message wasn't blocked and won't try to avoid it >:D
