Hello All,

So I've tried to implement the code in Post 36 based on the request in Post #20. I was able to drop the code in and get the spam button. But when I click on it - the user id isn't passed in.

The userid, threadid, and postid url parameters are blank...

I too am in a situation where someone went nuts adding spam blog posts but no forum posts.

I upgraded to 4.2.2 and this seems to be working ok

I installed it in 4.2.2 and it works OK, but I have noticed the following issues:

1. The program doesn't move the deleted posts in the forum designated in AdminCP.
2. While in AdminCP, I have set it to not send emails to spammers, that option still appears in the Decimator window, as well as the option to email webmaster. If these options are set to "No", in AdminCP, they should not appear at all, in the Decimator window.

Finally, one request: I would love to see the spammer IP address added at the beginning of the "Banned IP addresses" list. That should be controlled by an AdminCP option.

I re-released this here (very minor update):

Then released a much larger/sophisticated version here:

If you post your ideas we will consider implementing them within SA.

To fix post#36 just change {vb:raw post.userid} to {vb:raw memberinfo.userid}

Any word on if this mod will be updated?

One of the sites I help with (vB 4.2.3) uses this product, and the only issue I had with it was the position of the spam-decimator button, which I fixed with a plugin hooked at "parse_templates" with the code:

PHP Code:

global $vbulletin;

if ($vbulletin->options['sd_enabled'] AND in_array(THIS_SCRIPT, array('showthread', 'private')))
{
    $template_hook['headinclude_css'] .= '<style>.decimator_link {height: 0 !important; padding: 0 !important;} .decimator_link img {position: relative !important; height: 15px !important; margin-right: 10px !important;}</style>';
}

I need it to delete over 3000 blog spam posts. Can this mod do that?
