Install Gold Version and ran report, fantastic stuff came up with some very interesting info

Where do I find my thread id so I can specify it for future reports

My report showed some potential spammers which I wasn't aware off which was great

It also showed some duplicate IP addresses where I know users are legitimate and not spammers, 1 duplicate made sense as the 2 members work for same company but the other 2 didn't make sense. I am sure all are real users could it just be they logged onto same server or something?

Hi, looks like a great mod, but I keep running into these errors:

Warning: include_once([path]/./includes/cron/bop5_dupeip.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/admincp/cronadmin.php on line 113

Warning: include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening '[path]/./includes/cron/bop5_dupeip.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in [path]/admincp/cronadmin.php on line 113

I've disabled Glowhost, set my days 1, 1, but I still keep getting these errors when I run it manually.

We have a mod that prevents links from being posted until they have a minimum number of approved posts (2) to prevent spammers. That's worked perfectly, but could that prevent this from working?

Thank you!!

its not hard to work out the problem just upload the missing file it is asking for includes/cron/bop5_dupeip.php

To confirm, do I just upload a file named bop5_dupeip.php or is there a special file named this that I have to acquire?

it is all in the file you downloaded

In the download zip for this mod there is a folder called upload, inside upload is includes, inside includes is cron, and inside cron in the file: bop5_dupeip.php

Using FTP upload bop5_dupeip.php onto your vBulletin install in the folder /includes/cron/

The folders after /upload/ match where the files need to go in your forums. Same as with the VB install files when you installed the forum.

Took me awhile but I finally came up with some things that would be helpful (at least for me) At the moment I have it setup to post a thread/report into a dedicated forum. However I would like to stop those that have access to the forum from posting within the same thread. So would it possible to add a feature to auto-close the thread upon its posting? Also having the ability to make the thread auto-sticky for X amount of days would be great. This would allow x amount of reports (a week in my case) worth of reports to remain at the top of the forum and not get lost in the staff's chit chat.

TIA

Closed threads is a good idea- I will make sure it is an option in the next update.

In the mean time if you want closed threads just edit the php file that came with the mod (in the /includes/cron/ directory)

Find the line:

And directly below it add:

That will create all threads as closed threads.

If you want to go back to open threads just change $isopen = 1 instead.


The sticky threads for X number of days isn't likely to happen, would be too much code with nothing to do with this mod IMO.

Not likely either- that would require keeping some type of log in the database which means creating new database tables, regular reading from and updates to those tables, just an annoyance from a coding point of view.

The 2 existing queries can be quite heavy, especially on large forms- doubling the queries would cause more timeout issues or require forum admins to restrict how far back the mod looks even more. That's why if I did implement this feature it would be with a custom log not a duplicate query one day earlier.

Second issue with your logic, there would be a report every other day.
