I think I found the issue. It seems our mod was putting her posts in moderation on purpose using the Unapprove Posts function in order to format/edit/proofread them before making them public. The one thing I didn't do before troubleshooting the issue yesterday was ask her about it directly. *headdesk*

Thanks for the reply.

4 guests can´t create a new account because they are detected as bots.

How can I avoid this?

Thanks

When myself and members go to post a reply to an article they get a white page and no new post arrives on the forum.

Can anyone help? Thanks

Ya same here, I've seen a ton of new registrations that appear to be just spammers. I'm getting like 20 a day of new accounts.

cdoyle 12-17-2012 09:26 PM

Hi,
I just upgraded to the latest version, and this version has the stats on the bottom of forum home.

Is there a way to make it so only Admins can see this? I don't really see a reason for anyone else to see this? Plus I like to keep my spam blocking secrets to myself and not let them know what it is they are working against.

Thanks
Chris

then install again

Ever since updating from vB 3.8 to 4.X last week spam has been outta control for me even with Q&A verification. Going to be installing this tonight. Hopefully it does the trick!

thenags 12-20-2012 03:52 AM

I've installed and got everything configured. However when I registered a test account I get this at the end

"Warning: array_intersect() [function.array-intersect]: Argument #1 is not an array in [path]/modules/navigation.php on line 34"

The account gets registered but why the error?

there is no modules folder unless you renamed the admincp folder as the only navigation.php file is in the admincp folder
If you have not renamed the admincp folder then this problem is from a custom plugin or mod
Check Navigation Manager for errors also any error logs you have post them

You're right. It must have been there before. I've since disabled S-O-M and still have the issue.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

i installed this a few days ago and seems to be working. I caught my first post, and tried to moderator it and got this error when i pressed on moderator threads in the admin cp

Not Found

The requested URL /vapor/moderate.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

No idea why, cause everything else works fine?

Do you actually have moderate.php file in the vapor folder in your forum root? Looks to me it's not in your forum root.

postcd 12-29-2012 10:26 AM

> "Customizable "Registration Rejected" message."

Why the he** i cant find WHERE to edit rejection message?!

It should be included in Mod settings page.

Here is guide how to change. Admin > Languages & Phrases menu > Phrasse manager > Search in Phrasses button > find: glowhostspamomatic_reject , select "Phrase Text and Phrase Variable Name" , find button, edit

I have been helping manage a board(vb4) for a couple of years now. I have no background in programming and I "self taught" myself the admin control panel ( so please don't get too technical with responses!) We used to get over 200 spam posts a day and we narrowed it down to maybe 5 in 2 years when someone recommended SOM. GREAT PRODUCT! Now for about 2-3 months, we have noticed that there are about 20-30 a day that are getting past registration. I know the SOM is still working because it is rejecting around 120- 150 a day, but is there something that needs to be updated to get back to no spam like we previously were?

We do use re-captcha, email verification and our spammers are placed under moderation, but we are concerned about the number of bogus registrations rising now

Like I said earlier, no programming experience here, I only know enought to slide by. I was looking at our installation (done by someone else) and I only see Askimet API key I do not see StopForumSpam API Key set. Would we benefit by doing this?

You would be best to have the StopForumSpam API Key also did you update the functions_ghsom.php and try this program

Installation was a breeze huge thanks to ForceHSS for your posts here that really helped.

One question, what is the relevance of the changelog.txt file and should I have downloaded this??

On my test site currently will install it into the live environment shortly

looks like a fantastic mod, thanks to all involved

Working good so far. I do have a question I can't find the answer to.

How do I add an exception? I have someone who has been trying to register for days and gets denied each time. Is there a way to create a one time exception?

in the settings for this mod disable username so only ip and email are enabled

When I turn that back on does he get banned?

That's because the name he is using is now in the db you will need to uninstall the xml and reinstall it then it will work making sure you disable the username right after you install it again

Hi,

When I try to permanently remove posts from a spammer, using the inline-mod, it works nicely.
Unless the thread was already soft-deleted..

indiegamemag 01-03-2013 08:45 PM

Awesome simply Awesome

owning_y0u 01-03-2013 09:07 PM

Just a small idea,

Adding the option to remove and report a user true usermanager,

Because is have users that get past is but dont post and i know for sure they are spammers seen the info the filled in etc etc

Demin 01-04-2013 10:36 AM

Moin ,

hatte mir das addon installiert,aber irgendwie bekomme ich die statistik nicht am laufen,auf der downloadseite werden hier statistiken gezeigt die ich nicht besitze...bei mir kann ich weder öffen oder schliessen nur dieses wird angezeigt

Spam Statistics

3 Spammers / Registrierung verweigert

habe ich da einen fehler gemacht oder woran könnte das liegen

Mfg Demin

My memory is a little fuzzy. I'm pretty sure there was a feature in this mod that allowed you to ban directly from a user's profile in the admin panel. Sometimes it's painfully obvious that a user is a actually a spam account and there's no need to wait for them to start posting to submit them.

So, if I'm remembering correctly and this was a feature in this particular mod, it'd be awesome if it returned. If I'm confusing this with a feature that was in another mod, I think it'd be a good feature to include in this one. We get hit with a lot (a lot) of spam registrations and so we like to stay on top of these things.

was never but you can do this
admincp/Plugins & Products/Add New Plugin
Product = vBulletin
Hook Location = useradmin_edit_column1
Title = Submit to StopForumSpam.com
Execution Order = 5
Plugin PHP Code
PHP Code:

if (!is_member_of($user['usergroupid'], 6)) // we dont want to ban our admin account now do we
        

            
print_table_break(''$INNERTABLEWIDTH);
            
print_table_header("Submit to StopForumSpam");
            
                
print_label_row('Submit these details to www.stopforumspam.com ban list<BR><table><tr><td>Username:</td><td><input type="text" name="username"  size="30" value="'
$user['username'] . '"></td></tr>
