Sounds like a good idea. But it says that it's in closed BETA, so I can't register for an API key. Do you know when they'll open it up for general use?

The page says that it was previously a closed beta -- a registration page should be available soon; until then, you can simply email the address listed on the page

Ahh that makes more sense. Thanks!

can I run this with other anti spam MODs?

thanks.

Yes, it shouldn't conflict with any of the CAPTCHA plugins -- not sure what else you have in mind.

I have this error at the top of the forum. Install modifications AutoMOD.

Code: Select all

[phpBB Debug] PHP Notice: in file /includes/functions.php on line 4181: Undefined index: ATLBL_PROTECTED_BY

Hello,
is this MOD blocking or just notifying?

Bye Martin

install was painless

one question. in the ACP, the title for the box that the mod is in is called "Submit changes". i noticed the edit for acp_board.php already has a 'legend3' defined in it.

Code: Select all

						'legend3'					=> 'ACP_SUBMIT_CHANGES',

what would be the fix for this?

Can you explain that a bit more? I'm not quite sure what you mean.
