Smoothwall and Machete

[CrootUK]

Anyone else seeing Machetes not being classed as weapons on smoothwall currently?

[Joeloman]

No, here it works as usual..
Do you have any examples?

Gerber Gator Bush Machete

Just regular google search for "machete" is being allowed, it's not showing in weapon category at all, though knifes, guns etc are.

That's what makes Smoothwall so great!

It's extremely easy to block different search terms (which you can also do yourself) but then there will be an extreme amount of overblocking.
You probably want to be able to search for "How many people are injured in the UK each year by machete attacks?"

Smoothwall normally only looks at the results of a search and leads many links to weapon pages, the results are blocked, but not the search itself.

 

The page you link to is classified as weapons and shopping in our Smoothwall via the content filter.
You should probably check that everything is set up correctly in your Smoothwall.
