All you have to do is reinstall or just add the missing file from Spam-o-matic.

If it does not see the file and spam-o-matic is installed (even partially) - it will generate that error.

It was driving me nuts until I figured it out

Hi LVC not sure if you were replying to my post but I am sure I uploaded everything to the root and I am still unable to post. Are there any known conflicts with other mods or do I need to CHMOD 777 the directories?

MAdotcom 08-07-2011 11:13 PM

I digress. I am sorry I was not making sure the files were in the correct directories. The product is allowing me to post now.

sc123 08-08-2011 12:52 AM

what did you do? im unable to post.. i have vb 4.1.5

MAdotcom 08-08-2011 01:53 AM

When you upload the files via FTP you need to make sure they are put in the correct directories. Not trying to be a ++++ so don't think I am talking down to you by showing you an example but I didn't even think about it so here's an example for this specific product (hope it helps)

ex: the file 'upload' has 2 files in it (admin & includes) in the admin file glowhostspamomatic.php exists and that php file must be placed in your forums admin directory, not in the root. Same with all files excluding the product-glowhostspamomatic.xml file which needs to be uploaded in your forums admincp.

Long story short, make sure the file you FTP goes to the correct directory not in the forum root.

Hope that helps

Should I uninstall vbStopForumSpam mod before install this one?

Thank you very much!

sc123 08-10-2011 09:57 AM

i just upgraded to vb 4.1.5 and i just re uploaded the files and it worked.

The Rocketeer 08-11-2011 08:02 AM

Why dont you give us the option to ban or submit spammers when we click edit and it takes us to ACP? I am getting a shitload of spammers signing up to post visitor messages!

Its coming with version 2.5 as stated in the first post.

The correct question would be, when will be seeing 2.5 come out...?

LVC 08-12-2011 11:30 AM

hope 2.5 has moderation alerts.

would love to receive an email alert when a post is placed in auto moderation.

If there is a way to do that now -- please share.

iamspookysdaddy 08-13-2011 10:08 AM

Hi,

Thanks for the mod! I am missing the Spam-O-Matic logs link under Statistics and Logs? I am running Vbulletin 4.1.5? Any suggestions? I installed last nigt and see to Spammers Denied Registration on Forum Home section but cannot find section for logs?

Yes, But I remember that function / feature present in the previous 1.x version, I was able to ban, and submit them to akismat,. As soon as I upgraded" to the new version. it went away.

Also this, Or maybe a banner on top of the forums visible only to admins or mods that says "SOME POSTS NEED MODERATION". This should be an option to eithr be notified this way or via PM

This mod needs a lot of functions, as when its banning users, make it so that it removed everything(eg. visitor messages etc. so no spam links are left on out forums. Add MORE options about banning and removing spam posts in one click. Also alerts is a big yes yes :D//


2.5 soon please :o

spamgirl 08-15-2011 12:49 AM

4.2. Get API key for Akismet and enter it in settings. After this edit your usergroups and you will see the option to "Filter posts with Akismet". Only check groups with untrusted users (i.e. Unregistered / Not Logged In, Registered Users).

--

I added the Akismet key but I don't see this option in any of my user groups. Where should I be looking?

cameraguru 08-15-2011 03:58 PM

Thanks great mod defo made my life easier

empservices 08-16-2011 09:07 AM

Hi,

I'd like to install this mod but I have 2 questions beforehand for which I didn't find answers here.

1) Can I whitelist a country, this is the opposite to what most people seem to want to do. My forum is designed mainly for a specific country while all others are welcome. I therefore want to whitelist the country ( I can handle occasional spam manually) and do normal moderationrules for the rest of the world.

2) Can I Auto moderate posts with lings from users in a specific usergroup. Also some of them don't make a real link just put in a URL (it's unclickable but stillo messy).

Thanks

Mr GRiM 08-17-2011 07:37 AM

After installing this mod I get error on the forum home page link.

Database error in vBulletin 4.1.5:

I had to also change the product-glowhostspamomatic.xml TYPE=MyISAM to ENGINE=MyISAM for the install to work as it doesn't seem to like having type there since the latest mysql update but not sure if that is anyway related to the problem mentioned above.

Quick question, in the list of bad words can we enter phrases? IE "watch live" "live nude" etc etc.

This mod rocks btw :cool:

I loaded it successfully and it is showing up under products but I am not seeing the option under AdminCP -> Settings -> Options ->GlowHost - Spam-O-Matic

I am using 4.02 has anyone else had this type of problem, I also do not see Facebook when I expand and collapse the options. Today I added another module and I could see it. Any help would be appreciated.

vantastic 08-27-2011 12:25 AM

Thank you for this mod. I'm looking forward to seeing the results on these new 'smart-bots' that keep hitting my forum.

The Rocketeer 08-27-2011 01:27 PM

in the version 1 of this mod, before I upgraded to version 2. there I remember being a option at the very bottom when editing a user profile in the Admin CP., I could just click and check two boxes and ban the user and submit him to stop forum spam at the same time, it saved a lot of time, now I just delete the users.

Was this function removed? Why?

In the next version in addition to this function please also give us the option to have all the offending users Visitor messages removed .

There are no country options at this time. I am not following your second question. Please elaborate.

it was removed because there were bugs with vb4 and we wanted to get a working version released.

mjfan227 08-28-2011 12:04 AM

It's working great 4.1.5, thanks.

The Rocketeer 08-28-2011 03:29 AM

Thanks @GlowHost.com
Could you give us some update / information if a new version to address these errors are in the works and maybe a ETA on when the new version of this mod is due? Thanks

GlowHost.com 08-28-2011 05:22 PM

What errors are you specifically speaking of? This whole thread is about errors, and all of them since the last version are related to operator error.

To my knowledge if it is installed per the directions it works fine on all vb4 versions released to date. The only known issue is Windows users have some code that needs to be changed for MySQL to work.

A new version will be soon, it's in the queue for when we don't have major other projects to work on at our primary business which is web hosting. 2 weeks maybe?? If nothing else critical comes up at work.

If someone want's to make a reasonable donation to speed the process up, then we can discuss it but at this time it is coming as fast as we can which is whenever we have free time to put our programmers onto this.

I have upgraded to 4.1.5 Patch Level 1 - I am now seeing Facebook but I am not seeing GlowHost. I must of installed the files wrong it is showing up under my plugins and I loaded both folders admincp and includes to the main directory of the forum so the folders are now there. Should I have copy what is in the folders ie. includes and paste it into the existing includes folder rather than the folder?

Sorry in advance for some stupid questions.

Force, sorry to be thick but just to be sure. In the upload file there are two folders: includes and admincp I copied the contents of these files and pasted them into the existing folders that I have already on my system. If that is what you are suppose to do the program is still not showing up. "you also can you show a screenshot from the options of the bottom of the program to see what you have put in the boxes" I am not sure what you meant by that comment.

Any help from you or other for a noob would be very much appreciate. The xml file by the way installed fine.

ForceHSS 08-30-2011 12:06 AM

if you need 1 to 1 help pm me
you have 3 files inside the upload folder inside the includes folder you will see the xml folder did you upload the file inside that folder as well

The first step is to look at the logs and see why your legitimate users are being blocked. You might consider turning off username and IP verification and focus only on known spammer email addresses.

I keep trying to import the xml file included with the add-on, but it keeps saying "Invalid File Specified". Importing the ibproarcade xml worked fine so is there anything that could be preventing this add-on's xml file from working?
