I cant get it to work on 3.6

Well I've just installed this, and its split my members into two group, registered users and Registered users promoted (Ues I'm using the two different usergroups so regular members wont have their posts filtered). Odd thing is the users in both groups all have above 5 posts, and have been members for longer then 2 days. It that normal?

Edit: Never mind.... It turns out there are a HELL of a lot of users without 5 posts. I mis read the usergroup stats info.... WOW

This software is awsome...... I cant believe the success I'm having with it.

Check the permissions you put in the promoted usergroups and also check their access masks. I have no experience with the CMS, but I would imagine there are settings in the CMS to allow certain usergroups.

Hello

I just installed this, but it doesn't seem to be checking my post. I'm running vBulletin 3.6.4 and have Usergroup/Promotion set up.

I have 2 users in Registered Users.
"Filter Posts with Akismet" is set to 'yes' in that group

Promotion is set to move user to Registered Users Promoted after 2 days.
I have Akismet Key entered in vBulletin Options -> Akismet Anti-Spam.

I try to enter the 'test' spam they recommend of viagra-123-test in the subject and body, and it quickly submits to the database. I have other applications using Akismet, and there is a slight pause while it's connecting to their server. It really appears that this plugin is not connecting to Akismet's server.

I tried with ak_spam.php in the / and in /includes/ same outcome for both.

Am I missing something? Is it a vBulletin version issue?

Thanks!

You say you entered a test spam. Were you a registered user, or administrator? Are you sure you were not logged in as an admin?

Yep. I was registered user. I even created a new account and logged in as the new user.. same problem. I verified that both of my users (non-admin) were in the Registered User group, with Akismet filter 'yes'.

Thanks!

I have no idea. Works fine for me and nobody else has reported the issue. Could be you have another plug-in conflicting with it, but I have no way to know.

Is your version of vBulletin 3.6.4?

Thanks!

Yes, both versions, two different servers.
