Hey guys,

Having some trouble and could really use some help. I've scanned the thread and haven't found the answer.

AKISMET is working on my vB, meaning, it's finding the posts that are spam, BUT...it doesn't hold it until the post is released by a moderator. So it goes right up on the site for everyone to see. What can I do?

Then it isn't working then. VB as of 3.7 now has Akismet built in. This plugin is no longer needed.

I see. I didn't realize that. Can you point me to a resource that talks about AKISMET in vB 3.7.X?

Ok, Im too much of a simpleton to get this uploaded, installed and working. Anyone wanna help walk me through it on aim or skype? If so pm me. Ill pay you $10. Thanks!

Jafo, thank you for suggesting other mods which work well with your own. That really helps us to maximize the amount of quality we can realize from your products.

I noticed in your post that you are interested in donations, which will motivate you to work more on plugins.

When I was at the akismet site, I noticed their system for gathering donations. Pure brilliance. I recommend setting up a page for yourself with a similar system. It would reap results. I was so impressed that I actually made a youtube video to share with other web masters in my clique.

Is it used in VB version 4?

Chuotlac, it comes pre-included. Source.

I installed on vb4, then removed, and it left changes in the database which make it impossible to update some usergroups.
I have seen a number of threads which relate to other users having the same challenge.

If that happens to anyone else, see solution here.
