This Mod is not working for me. As far as I can tell, I've got everything configured correctly. I'm close to uninstalling as the StopForumSpam mod worked well for me before.

Does anybody have any info on the REMOTE_ERROR posted above?

Thanks!

Spammers are getting in so I had to uninstall. Was hoping for great things.

If that process would log what the error is and not just that there WAS an error it would be more helpful. I found the code where the error is getting thrown but I don't know enough about the expected contents of the call to stopforumspam.

I have the vbStopForumSpam standalone installed now. I had it before and it was working great, so I'll go back to it for now until I hear some feedback.

Is there a way to have individual minimum postcount settings for keyword vs URL moderation?

It appears both are tied to this one setting:
Minimum postcount required to avoid keyword and URL moderation

ie: I would like to auto-moderate All user's posts for keywords
but only auto-moderate new member's URLs who are under minimum post count

In your settings for either mod, you have it set to allow registrations if your server cannot connect to stopforumspam.com. You can disable registrations if you cannot connect to stopforumspam.com but then you probably will have no registrations at all.

My guess is your site is firewalled by the stopforumspam.com site itself, or your server is blocking stopforumspam.com

Ask your host to help you figure out why your server cannot connect.

keyword moderation only works onusers who have not met the postcount minimum.

Thanks GlowHost.

I posted my findings to this issue over on the SFS thread.

Here is a link for anyone who'd like to read on.

I will be reinstalling S-O-M for its extra features.

You are welcome, thanks for posting your results. S-O-M should not be affected by this problem as this setting is not an option. Though the SFS option is supposed to not rely on this option if CURL is not available. Perhaps something changes at the SFS site that requires CURL.

Request for a new feature!
Can this flag a thread for spam IF ...
A new user creates a link in his signature ... and then posts.
OR
A new user adds a html link but doesnt post.

Auto-moderation does this already.

Really ... it doesnt seem to be working for me.

The test I ran was :
1) create an account
2) post
3) change sig to include a link.

JUst upgraded from 1.2.4 to 1.2.8 and I'm getting the error:

Warning: require_once(includes/functions_ghsom.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/register.php(333) : eval()'d code on line 4

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/functions_ghsom.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/*MYACCOUNT*/public_html/*MYPATH*/forum/register.php(333) : eval()'d code on line 4

A user reported it when going through resgistration and I got it on the admin CP user page. Any ideas? I 1st tried to overwrite the original install then I uninstalled and reinstalled but still get the error. I have now disabled and the error has gone.

Any ideas what's going on? I can't live without this mod!
