Thanks for the detail. Sounds like this mod could use an update.

I'd like the option of using Spam-O-Matic on the thread level as well as the post level.

Really good catch, swapped and will keep an eye on that.

Can anyone confirm that this is actually a requirement i.e. that we have to change all mentions of stopforumspam.com in file functions_ghsom.php?

If that was an isolate incident with SFS going down a few days ago then ... they seem to have had another of those isolated incidents today!

I didn't do any of those changes and things are working fine for me, for now. It did set to block registrations if SFS is unavailable, however.

No, they are not necessary at all. The issues people were experiencing had nothing to do with the specific URL but with database outages and a surge in spam in all forms over the past few days.

Good mod, catches a lot but also misses a fair bit too.

This is honestly the greatest thing ever made.

Pardon my newbishness, but in the readme.txt is says to "Upload content of the upload folder into you forum root folder". Contained in the upload folder are the following folders:

admincp
includes

The root folder already contains a folder called includes, so I must assume that I copy the "contents of the folders" to the "designated folders" within the root folder. We don't have a folder in our root folder called admincp. We do have one called admincontrolpanel. Would that be where I copy the contents of admincp to?

You have not installed many plugins just take the files and upload them to the same name folders

I got this error message...

I tried adding the tables but not sure what im doing. can someone give me a guide on what to put in here as the Mysql updated.
