Yes there is an increase. I have had probably 50 today alone.

GlowHost,

One of the account I have in the Protect Users setting is an account that posts IP information of each member as they register to a thread, and checks the user's IP against other registration and post IPs (to detect Duplicate Accounts, for the most part). These posts are made to a thread my Staff can view with the following function:

PHP Code:
function insert_post_to_ip_thread($text)
{
  global $vbulletin;
  $postdm =& datamanager_init('Post', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_STANDARD, 'threadpost');
  $postdm->set('threadid', 71539);
  $postdm->set('userid', 54564);
  $postdm->set('pagetext', $text);
  $postdm->set('allowsmilie', 0);
  $postdm->set('visible', 1);
  $postdm->set('dateline', TIMENOW);
  $postdm->save();
  build_thread_counters(71539);
  build_forum_counters(673);
} 
I notice, in your plugin, you use $this->registry->userinfo to get the userinfo. I am wondering, with my simple function above, perhaps the registry of the post object does not get set with my userinfo?

If that's the case, it would explain why it's ignoring both the post count and the Protect Users settings. Could you make a suggestion on improving my little function there so that the registry does get set, perhaps, if that's the case?


[EDIT] Each of the accounts I'm having do automatic posting use similar functions, so it does seem likely that this could be the problem.

GlowHost.com 05-23-2011 10:54 PM
I am not a programmer so I cannot really tell you about your functions or how to improve them, sorry. As for testing, its not going to be for a while, I don't have version 2.5 set for release for at least another month due to other projects.

No. To do that I use https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=131014 and it works perfectly.

Thanks,but i'm using vbulletin 4.1.2

DannyITR 05-24-2011 03:56 PM
This mod is un-usable. I get emails every few days from disgruntled people not able to register if I'm using the IP function. Why is this happening??????

togotutor 05-24-2011 07:44 PM
Is it going to affect the SEO somehow?

Sushubh 05-25-2011 01:10 PM
Is it me or the threads moderated by this plugin are still visible to the end user?

They do not open thankfully. But they are still visible in different sections of the forum.

How do I hide them from members?

You must have some setting wrong becouse in my forum, members whith moderated messages usually write them 2 or 3 times saying that "they don't know why their messages didn't showed up" so no... they don't show for regular members.

Sushubh 05-25-2011 02:07 PM
well the moderated posts are not visible. and i get repeated posts in the moderation backend too.

i am talking about moderated threads. and they are visible to end user!

I've installed this and it has broken my registration

when people try to register they get this message


Warning: require_once(includes/functions_ghsom.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in[path]/register.php(338) : eval()'d code on line 10

Alan_SP 05-26-2011 02:48 AM
Upload includes/functions_ghsom.php. It's missing.

liltiger 05-26-2011 03:42 AM
hmmm i uploaded that into admin cp with the other folder (admin cp)... did I need to remove it from folder? or put it somewhere else?

TeknoSounds 05-26-2011 04:58 AM
it should be in your forums/includes folder not your forums/admincp. Most mods forum structure is already there, so should just upload to the folders that already exist.... hope that makes sense.

no... I originally tried to upload to my forum... and it wanted to replace admin cp and include...

then another post here said to put them in admin cp

let me explain this clearly for you,
when you download this file there will be ffolders named admincp and includes... and so on ( i have not downloaded this yet, so I dont know what is included )

inside of those folders will be files, you need to take the files from the folders and upload them into the corresponding folders on your server.

example:
admincp folder included with this download has files within it, take those files out of that admincp folder and put them into your admincp folder on your sever. repeat this process for each corresponding folder, items not in a folder go directly into public_html

that explain it better?

Pionex 05-26-2011 08:09 AM
okay, now lets address the issue about members being denined access so i can install this thing.. spam is killing me !

Marv 05-26-2011 08:18 AM
Weird, for some reason I can´t find the glowhost navigation in the admincp nor a setting page. The xml is properly uploaded in the includes/xml folder. Can anyone assist me with this issue?

Guess it´s a trivial problem, but I am stuck. Help appreciated.

THAT I can manage to do...

I'm a little slow with this stuff I guess :eek:

the xml file is what you import, you don't upload it to the includes/xml folder

this is expected behavior because it detects the same folders, but if its a new install there won't be any files to overwrite in that folder. For future upgrades, you'll be overwriting previously uploaded files.
But its only giving you the replace the folders question because its detecting the folders are already there, it won't do anything with any other files within the folder unless that file already exists.

Hope that helps.

I wasn?t referring to the product.xml, it?s about the cpnav_glowhostspamomatic.xml. Any ideas what could have happend? May be cpnav_glowhostspamomatic.xml is trying to install at in a cpnav_ hook, where other mods have installed theirs? How could I change that to another hook/place ?

okay so you're saying you can't find the admincp settings for SpamoMatic, in your admincp folder there should be a glowhostspamomatic.php file, and the settings themselves are under the main settings manager, just check close to the bottom of the list...

autostick 05-28-2011 06:13 PM
My apologies if this was covered, but I searched and found nothing. I am installing SpamOMatic for the first time, and when I click on Import Product, I get this error message. Any suggestions are most welcome. Thanks.

LisaArnold 05-30-2011 11:29 AM
I have a question that I can't seaem to find an answer for...

Does the Spam-O-Matic have a unbalanced tilt towards not recognizing IP reports in favor of email reports from submissions?

I ask this because on our forum- every spammer that gets through has bad IP reports from sometimes days/months before registering with our site. They get through with a good email, but the IP comes back as previously reported. This has happened numerous times.

I find that this is the case for nearly 99% of the bans. We're using the VBulletin version of Spam-O-Matic and this problem has been on-going for at least a month if not longer.

Is this a known bug in the Spam-O-Matic, and if so, are there any plans to fix it?

Is anyone else having the same problem?

Thanks in advance for any help in this.

Lisa :)

Many thanks to puertoblack for posting the modified code that works flawlessly. Up and running now, my apologies for any duplication... http://www.carforums.net/images/smilies/dupe.gif

Rabbit9149 05-31-2011 05:33 AM
Thanks for this Mod. I installed this on my higher bot traffic site about 3 days ago to see how well it works and so far it has blocked all spammers 100%. 39 Spammers Denied Registration so far and counting. Again, Thanks very much for this Mod.

shrimpca 05-31-2011 07:28 AM
I can't get APIkey from stopspam.

Can you help me ??

Pionex 05-31-2011 08:03 AM

you have to register on there forum to get an apikey due to abuse (people submitting false reports etc)

for people who have there ip listed and are not a spammer you can request removal though keep this in mind

1) ask nicely
2) do not argue with them or your ip stays in there database

Glowhost you could update the first post so you don't have to answer the same question all the time :D

I had this same error. It has to do with the newer versions of mysql you use. You can fix it by right clicking on product-glowhostspamomatic.xml and click edit and open your find window and search for TYPE=MyISAM I think there were 3 of them you need to change to ENGINE=MyISAM and that should fix you all up. ;)

Has anyone written something to leverage this API to check existing registrations?

mrplowjr_ez_v 05-31-2011 06:18 PM
What a fantastic add-on! Thank you!!! Had 20 blocked spammers in the first 12 hours. This saves me an immense amount of time!

lurch_cr 06-01-2011 01:05 AM
On my forum, I have a bit of a problem with the 'Username' check when people try and register.
It seems to pick up some really common "real" names. A recently one being as something as simple as 'Leon' - the persons real name.
Now I realise that it goes and checks this against a central database and I'm assuming these names have been flagged.
What I would prefer is that rego's that have failed due to username be left for moderation instead of just blocked in its tracks.
Is this possible? I haven't been able to find such an option thus far :(

Mark Hewitt 06-02-2011 06:14 AM
Just trying to understand how this works.

I used to moderate all new members, but I switched that off when I installed this.

However, new members (all spammers) are still appearing in my moderation list. However they don't appear in the Spam-o-matic logs. Is this expected behaviour or have I got something strange going on here?

Mark Hewitt 06-02-2011 06:23 AM
I've also just been spammed by someone who doesn't appear in the logs.
