Block unapproved domains and prevent malicious links in your Discord server.
SecurityBot’s Link Filter automatically removes any message containing a link to a domain that hasn’t been explicitly approved. This helps prevent users from sharing phishing sites, scam promotions, or links to untrusted content.
How to Manage Allowed Domains
Enable or disable domain filtering
You can toggle the filter using:
/settings block_links
When enabled, any link not on your allowlist will be automatically deleted.
When disabled, users can post links freely, unless blocked by another filter.
This command also shows:
Whether link filtering is currently active
The total number of domains currently allowed (your domain whitelist size)
An option to Allow Default Links, which automatically whitelists common trusted domains used across the ecosystem (e.g., X, CardanoScan and other common DAPP's and tools)
Use the "Allow Default Links" button if you want to quickly pre-approve frequently used safe domains.
Allow a trusted domain
To let users post links to a specific domain:
/allow_domain [domain]
Example:
This allows any URL from that domain, such as:
https://securitybot.info/checkout
https://securitybot.info/search
This command adds the domain to your allowlist. Once approved, users can share links that include this domain without being flagged or removed.
Subdomains are not included.
For example, allowing securitybot.info will not allow docs.securitybot.info. You must allow each subdomain explicitly if needed.
Remove a domain from the allowlist
If you no longer trust a domain or it’s no longer relevant:
Example:
Any future links to this domain will be blocked if the filter is active.

Best Practices
Only allow domains you trust and expect your members to use
Add any project-related services (e.g., ipfs.io, jpg.store, yourproject.xyz)
Use /chat_filters domain view regularly to audit your allowlist
Combine with a logging channel to track flagged attempts
Only admins or users with Discord’s Administrator permission can manage domain filtering.
