Another question,

I hope I did this right, tell me if I did.

I dragged the upload files to the public_html folder in my ftp program.

Then I imported it in the admincp.

I now see it in the vb options.

Did I do everything right?

http://yourdomain.com/vb/admin/vbstopforumspam.php

Alternative, assuming you have stopforumspam installed and working:

1) log into your admin control panel
2) look for the sidebar on the left side and scroll to the bottom (Statistics and Logs)
3) Expand the "Statistics and Logs" section
4) You should see a "vbStopForumSpam Logs"

Oh, it is working but when I run vbstopforumspam.php it only gives me a blank page in the Admin CP framework.

I also noticed it when doing an upgrade to 3.8.4. The upgrade script seems to generate a blank page, nothing else. :confused:

Hmm, thats strange. If you dont mind and if you have access my phpmyadmin (or the likes), could you spare me a couple of minutes to help me fix your blank page issue? If so, send me a PM and we can talk there.

Sounds like it to me. You can test it by going to www.stopforumspam.com, picking a random username from the homepage and attempting to register on your forum with it (if you have username filetering enabled that is). If you get an "sod odd" error, then youre set.

I'm still using 3.7.4 PL1, and the only thing I would change in the Installation.txt file is this:
Is:
4 - You can edit the default rejection message by Admin Control Panel / Languages & Phrases / Phrase Manager / Front-End Error Messages / vbstopformspam_reject and vbstopformspam_reject_connectionerror

Change to this:
4 - You can edit the default rejection message by Admin Control Panel / Languages & Phrases / Phrase Manager / Pull down: Error Messages / vbstopformspam_reject and vbstopformspam_reject_connectionerror
---------------
Now I hope some spammers come along so I can see this work.... From what I understand, I just look in the ACP/Statistics and Logs for vbStopForumSpam Logs correct?

Will do and yes, thats right, thats where you can see the logs from the mod.

now when I try to register a normal name, it wont work, it says this,

Warning: require_once(includes/functions_vbsfs.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/register.php(385) : eval()'d code on line 76

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/functions_vbsfs.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/realshi1/public_html/register.php(385) : eval()'d code on line 76"

What happened? I used 0.61 and I didn't delete anything, even though the instruction said to.

I just checked and I have 542 log entries since I installed this a few weeks ago. And I also have Stop the Bots installed so that bounces several spammers a day too.

My question is, how often should we delete the log files? Does it matter?

@Kat It doesnt really matter, the table size for that data is nothing compared to vbulletin. You can delete it as little or as much as you like

You havent installed it properly, in that you havent uploaded the files in the "upload" folder to your public_html folder. The cause is in the error "includes/functions_vbsfs.php" not found.

My mod required no files to be deleted.
