TBH, there is no way that this could create a thread if someone, or a bot did not properly follow the verify email link.

I can look into adding it to the mod queue, but a simple solution, is to have the threads post in a hidden forum, and once you verify the new user is not a bot, them move the threads out into the right forum.

I'll try that for now thanks.

If you are getting hit with bots, I suggest the following:

This will stop most of the spam bots that auto-register:

This gets alot of human spammers because they still use early IE:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=268208

This stops registration by any device on blacklisted host names.

NONE of the above use captchas, puzzles, questions or other such nonsense that merely annoys legitimate users, and have been rendered obsolete anyway for the most part, by autospam programs such as XRumer.

I used test10 user to test with this code.

Result was that I saw only @, without test10 after @. But, when I check text, there's [mention]test10[/mention] in message.

Also, when I quote this text, I get same results, as with using BBcode, or just @ before user name.

And, if I post manually @test10 (without using quoting text made by mod), everything works as it should.

It looks like text made with your mod (or at least username variable) is somehow different from "normal" text that gets parsed normally and which works with AUT. I hope you understand this, it's hard to explain it differently, but it certainly is different kind of text, not sure why, but it just is.

I asked Fillip, and he has no idea, so it looks like this will be on hold for a bit. :(

Strike the above, I figured out a way, it is not pretty but it works. I will update the mod maybe tonight or tomorrow.

I know what's going on here. The mention BB code needs the user ID number in order to work.

Yep, so I have found a way to get it in there with a big hammer and a crowbar. :p

ozzy47 12-18-2013 01:49 AM

Thanks for the kind words. I am glad you like the mods, and appreciate the work that goes into them.

With the added compatibility with DBTech's Advanced User Tagging, in the update tomorrow there will be two more options for admins to use, Ability to set the threads / posts in moderation, so you can see if the new user is a bot before moving the thread / post out of moderation, and the ability to set it to show the posters signature or not.

CAG CheechDogg 12-18-2013 02:10 AM

Nice Ozzy! This is really some good stuff here you have going on man ... yer' da' Man !
