I installed vB4 version (I followed at first vB3 version). I have vB4.1.2PL4.

I read that someone had problems with "phantom" threads created after installing mod. I too just had this experience.

Of course in settings I selected that threads aren't created at all. Also, I had empty place for forum and user ID.

But threads where created, using user ID 1 (first user I created when installing forum). Forum ID is missing, I see empty name instead forum's name.

All of it I see with Valters Advanced Forum Statiscs: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=235841

It looks like:

Activity from Bot No. 7 (Baidu) in your list 0 0 primus ▲ 25-11, 05:31

Note that the last thing is no forum name, i.e. empty space.

I can't see them in What's New. Or anywhere else in forum. When I try to access them I get error message. I don't know where they are really.

This is link to last one: http://slobodni.net/showthread.php?t...8&goto=newpost

Threads are created, but I don't know where. Also I don't know where can I remove them and how? 6 Threads are created at the moment.

Trying to prevent this, I put forum ID in settings as well as user ID, so I could at least delete threads upon creation.

So, mod creates threads somehow even if option is disabled. How and where, not sure, but I see them.

Interesting thing is, it created only this six threads and at the moment there aren't any new threads. I think there should be more spiders activity from banned bots. Very strange.


EDIT: Just noticed this:

You had this in conditions:

PHP Code:

$vbulletin->options ['bs_report_createthread' 


I just changed this to:

PHP Code:

$vbulletin->options['bs_report_createthread' 


Note there was one space. Not sure if this is bug that caused thread creation or not, but I just removed that one space.
