Each to their own. But seriously, if you&#8217;re going to show that on your blog, you should stick up a warning notice or something.<\/p>\n<p>In all seriousness though, there are plenty of reasons why you might want to provide some kind of warning prompt before someone hits your website. More reasons than just the one you are thinking of (yes, you with the filthy mind). You might want to prevent revealing some sort of spoiler, or you simply may want to inform your prospective audience that you are not afraid to use colorful language.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the reason,\u00a0<a title=\"Content Warning\" href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/content-warning-v2\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Content Warning<\/a> provides you with a good solution. It is driven by an extremely simple interface that allows you to tinker with the entrance and exit pages, the content of the warning itself, cookie settings, and more:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-74186\" title=\"Content Warning\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/content-warning-11.png\" alt=\"Content Warning\" width=\"689\" height=\"461\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-74185\" title=\"Content Warning\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/content-warning-2.png\" alt=\"Content Warning\" width=\"689\" height=\"575\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once you activate the plugin and define the settings as you would like them, your chosen page will be pre-empted with a clean and simple warning message:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-74187\" title=\"Content Warning\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/content-warning-3.png\" alt=\"Content Warning\" width=\"561\" height=\"353\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For those who have a specific requirement for warning their audience of potentially offensive content, Content Warning is a good option.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Content Warning\" href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/content-warning-v2\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Download it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>Creative Commons photo courtesy of\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/cocreatr\/\" target=\"_blank\">CoCreatr<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anything goes on the internet, but not everyone wants to see.
