Akismet Spam Protection

Still cant get this to work in 1.1.2

[juli]

Daniel, or anyone, is there a fix to get rid of subject listings in unread posts? I'm getting about 6 - 10 spams a day and most are porn related. It's upsetting the members to constantly read, in their unread post listing, "Free teen porn" and so on.

Getting lots of complaints, and I can't keep up with deleting them fast enough.

Thanks,

Juli

Am I maybe missing something here?... or am I maybe one of the lucky ones who had a trouble-free install.

I've got it working flawlessly, at least it appears that way.  It seems to catch spam and allow other posts through.  I can post as admin.  I can also post under a regular user profile that I created specifically to test it.  Haven't had many other users post since I set up the mod, but my community is very small, and just starting out.

I'll be keeping a careful eye on it.  So far so good, though.  Thanks Daniel for what appears to be a great mod!  I apologize if I come off odd, but seeing a lot of issues on installing a mod tends to make one a bit cautious.

@yell0wdart: If you take a look at your unread posts page before deleting spam that has been caught by Askimat, you'll see what juli is referring to.

[yell0wdart]

Yep, I know what she's referring to.  I'm just not experiencing it.  /shrug

I did, however get an odd MySQL error just before I was headed home from work.  Didn't take the time to copy it or post it to my board, but I didn't like it.  Think I may err on the side of caution and take it down for now.  Made me a little paranoid not seeing anybody from my boards post all day long... not even some of the chattier members...

Personally, it's tested ok for me under my admin acct and under a test member acct I set up.  I just don't want to take any chances... especially since my community is just in its infancy.  I don't want to deter people from registering.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class akismet in /www/110mb.com/j/o/y/r/i/d/e/r/joyrider/htdocs/Sources/Akismet.class.php on line 55

Will it work on smf v1.1.3 ...
 
Thanks in advance

[octopus22]

i have same question =)
waiting for this one

[lestat1124]

I tried to install this on SMF 1.2 and after the install...its not appearing in the admin panel under Forums.  So I never get a chance to add in the Key because the feature nevers shows up for me to click it.  Any suggestions?  By the way...i tried this on default and on a custom template.....same result for both.

Will it work on smf v1.1.3 ...

Appears to be working on 1.1.3, at least the akismet-test-123 was flagged.

Will this also pick up spam from registered users on my site?

[vdrover]

So, i found out that if you try the viagra-test-123 when logged in as admin or as a registered forum user, it is not detected as spam. As stated earlier, this test only works when a guest posts a message.

So, while logged in as admin i created a message with the following:

Subject: hi there
Body:
cialis
viagra
enlargement
porn

This was flagged as spam, which i think confirms that the mod is working in 1.1.3.

Odly, the following message was not flagged.

Subject: hi there
Body: cialis, viagra, enlargement, porn

But i think that is a limitation of akismet.

[vdrover]

As a follow, i can confirm that this is working very well with 1.1.3.

[RiderRaghav]

Just installed it on smf 1.1.3 v ....it works like a charm .....

Thanks for the mod

[muskokee]

Thanks so much for this mod!  I am a regular wordpress user so I know the value of akismet.

I am using SMF1.1.3 and Akismet Spam 1.1.1 fixed.

The only issue of installation was that the language definitions did not get written to the file.  I easily added them myself - but it created a little bit of a scare as I could not see the configuration link!

I posted a test message from an actually piece of spam that my blog caught.  Your mod caught it as well. 

Thanks again. A+++

Just noticed a bug with smf and akismet installed.

If your most recent post gets flagged as spam, the title still shows up as the most recent post in that board. If you click that url (the most recent post url), you go to the message but only the title is displayed.

If you then search for the message title, you can get a search result, but following the result again displays only the title.

Finally, once you delete all the spam messages from the akismet configuration and go back to the board overview, there is nothing listed as the most recent post (see attached).

[Pranav]

I also noticed this at my forum..Can we get it fixed please? And is there any way to disable akismet spam protection for admins?

[Pranav]

Hello help me please..whenever i post anything in my forum it classifies it as spam even when it is not! Then i have to go to approve it! But it doesn't happen with other members!

[Pranav]

so anyone??

[vdrover]

@ulgaming:

The developer ported it to SMF as a 'gift'. I wouldn't expect speedy support. You might want to contact him directly.

Help me please

When I install 'aksimet spam protection' mode successfully (smf 1.1.3. is my smf version) I don't see entry 'Aksimet Configuration' under the forum admin menu when I logg in as admin. I use theme 'Black Ted' as a default theme for users and me, admin. But although i have no 'Aksimet Configuration' under the forum admin menu, I note that there, in the admin menu under the forum section (left side-menu) where 'Aksimet Configuration' should be placed, there is a larger space...like some missing text, but of course there is no text- just blank white space.
In attachment is  'Blact Thed's' theme Display.template.php file, original one.
Please see what you can do.
Recently, someone hacked/spamed my forum and I don't want to that happen again.
Tnx a lot
