Hey great job with this Mod!

I do have one suggestion, and I apologize if this has already been suggested...

I think there should be an option when viewing the log to sort by IP address. Currently, there is only the option to sort by date, username, and email. It'd be useful to sort by IP address, and here's why: I'm looking through my MASSIVE log of blocked spammers (only had the mod installed for like 2 days, and I've blocked about 40 spammers...unbelievable), and I believe if there is an IP address being used MULTIPLE times on my site, I should just block that IP address. However, I can't tell by looking at the log how many times a given IP address has been used. Does that make sense? I'm not a big programmer myself, so I don't know how easy this will be, but I also think it'd be useful if the "sort by IP address" started with the ones that had the most entries. Make sense?

Very useful and practical mod! Much appreciated; keep up the great work...

Also, I did discover a bug...

In my logs, there is one entry that under message, I get a "found in Akismet database - held for moderation." Only, there is no user in the moderation queue. Additionally, the corresponding link returns a 404 error, because the link has /admincp/modcp/moderate.php etc. The link is valid if /admincp/ is removed and it's just /modcp/moderate.php etc.

But, even if I do this manually, it directs to the POSTS moderation queue instead of USERS moderation queue. But, again, even if the link were correct to the Users moderation queue, it wouldn't matter... the user was not placed in moderation queue.

Awesome mod, keep it up!

will this work with 4.1.1?

Yes, it does.

thankyou for the reply. i am installing it now.. :)

I downloaded the 1.2.8 link, but it says 1.2.7 in the products section.

Cheers for the 4.1.1 mention. You have to be so careful these days.

Hi I installed your mod (v1.28) on my vB 4.1.1 but other than the rejection log, I can't seem to find any of the interfaces you had in the screenshots. Am I missing something? How can i configure this?

Is there an new update to download yet? Really looking to get my RSS feeds working again.

I apologize if i missed this. I have installed with no issues but when I go to
AdminCP / Statistics and Logs / Glowhost-Spam-o-matic logs I get a 404 error. Now I just installed 30 min ago so either something is wrong or it does not generate a log until I catch an evil-doer

any suggestions

thank you in advance for your assistance

Great mod.
From the settings:
I need to check for key pharases not just keywords. Can I enter more than one word per line?
Hope someone can help with this.

Sorry if this has been answered before but when I go to ban someone though their profile on the admin cp it has a path of like sitename/modcp/banning.php? etc. but it 404s because my folder is named differently. What file do I edit to add in the correct path to banning.php?

There are two instances of 'modcp' in upload/includes/functions_ghsom.php. Change both instances in that file to match the name of your modcp folder to prevent the 404 errors.

Either that, or wait for version 2.0 - scheduled for release 1st Feb ;) - which apparently solves that issue and several others.

To report back, we've had it installed now for a few weeks and the log shows just over 19,000 entries. Some of these are entries for legit registrations (would be nice to filter the entry types!), but even if you allow 1000 or so for legit reasons, you can see that this mod and blocked a hell of alot of registration requests.

Sure, some get through, but they're easy enough to mop up afterwards. I cannot recommend this mod enough. If there was a mod of the decade award, it should go to this mod.

My folder is called modcp :( I guess I will have to wait for 2.0

Have you uploaded the glowhostspamomatic.php file into your admincp folder?
