You must have some other mods installed - I can only count 19 arguments in that function. PM me your functions_post.php and I'll have a look.

Someone actually made an add-on that does exactly that (he used a different list, though). Dunno whether he ever published the add-on.

That sounds odd. PM me your admin_forums.php and I'll have a look.

smokejax,
I received your PM. Someone else was having this problem some pages back and I posted a fix for it.

I am also encountering this when either I or someone else, edits their post..

I'll dig back through, and see if I can find the fix..

Thanks Joe!

[smokejax]

I think this was the fix..

Code: Select all

#
#-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------
# Note: this is a partial line match
#
            submit_post($mode, $post_data, $return_message,
#
#-----[ IN-LINE FIND ]------------------------------------------
#
, $poll_length
#
#-----[ IN-LINE AFTER, ADD ]------------------------------------------
#
, $post_flagged

Does this run on Mysql v3.23 ?

I got this error using easymod:


Error:
Unexpected or unknown attribute "NULL", in "word_id SMALLINT(4) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT", statement: 1, table: "phpbb_spam_words"

SQL:
CREATE TABLE phpbb_spam_words(word_id SMALLINT(4) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,spam_word CHAR(100) NOT NULL,PRIMARY KEY(word_id))

[coookies]

Not sure what the problem was - I created the tables manually via phpmyadmin and its all working now.

I'm running phpBB 2.0.22. I think there might be a typo in the installation instructions for this MOD. In the section for editing includes/functions_post.php it says:

Code: Select all

#-----[ IN-LINE FIND ]------------------------------------------
#
, enable_sig = $attach_sig" . $edited_sql . "
#
#-----[ IN-LINE AFTER, ADD ]------------------------------------------
#
, post_flagged = $post_flagged
#

The line of code that is being modified looks like this (end part only, it's kind of long):

Code: Select all

[snip] ...SET post_username = '$post_username', enable_bbcode = $bbcode_on, enable_html = $html_on, enable_smilies = $smilies_on, enable_sig = $attach_sig" . $edited_sql . " WHERE post_id = $post_id";

So if you inserted the new code after the code that you searched for, it would create an invalid SQL statement like this:

Code: Select all

SET post_username = '$post_username', enable_bbcode = $bbcode_on, enable_html = $html_on, enable_smilies = $smilies_on, enable_sig = $attach_sig" . $edited_sql . ", post_flagged = $post_flagged WHERE post_id = $post_id";

It seems like this installation instructions should be changed to:

Code: Select all

#-----[ IN-LINE FIND ]------------------------------------------
#
, enable_sig = $attach_sig
#
#-----[ IN-LINE AFTER, ADD ]------------------------------------------
#
, post_flagged = $post_flagged
#

Anyone else run into this, or am I doing something wrong?

Doesn't matter - either will work. My way of doing it makes compatibility with other mods more likely.

Plasmatic.... In your post:

SPam Bot Picture

You show a photo instead of the text error message. How do I do the same thing?

...You show a photo instead of the text error message. How do I do the same thing?

The photo is hosted on a webserver and the image is embedded using BBCode as part of the post text which looks like this for example:

Code: Select all

[img]http://www.annihilation.info/images/raisegoogle.jpg[/img]

Please note that you can see the text/code of any post by clicking on "Quote" button of the appropriate post, for example plasmatic's post.

In case you lack of a possibility to host your images you could use a free image hoster like ImageShack for example. In our forum there's a short "How to use ImageShack in phpBB forums".

In the new version you do not have the

Code: Select all

#-----[ OPEN ]------------------------------------------
#
includes/usercp_register.php
#
#-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------
#
if ( isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['submit']) )
{
#
#-----[ AFTER, ADD ]------------------------------------------
#
        include($phpbb_root_path . 'includes/spamwords.'.$phpEx);
#
#

Is there a reason for taken that out?

Also the new version when adding Mass add spam words it does not work like the old way with insertwords.php telling u if a word was added or skipped because it already exists:
That was a good feature.

And what does Spam Words Addtional Changes do as there is no Description in the txt file?

[truepunk]

I have been testing this, and it seems to work out really well, but it dosen't seem to check URLs that are posted.

What I am trying to do is any member with less then 10 posts basically can not post links at all.

Is there a way to do this without turning off BB code and A as an allowed HTML tag on the board?

[truepunk]

Solved the problem. words were stored in the db using CHAR, so the extra spaces were mucking up with words and what not. Changing it to VARCHAR, updated each word and removed the white space and it worked fine.

[dishdiva]

This sounds like it would work perfect for the spammers at my site. I'm not very tech savy so please bare with me. How do I install this into my website?

I am using this version of PhpBB 2.0.21. Thank you.

Why do I get the following error every time I delete flagged messages?

Could not get post ID
