ok...

but what about translations?

Posted: **Thu Oct 16, 2008 5:44 pm**

Have you even looked at the new version? It has a separate language file which is easy to translate!

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2008 5:54 pm**

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2008 9:10 pm**

Can you post few samples of the SPAM you receive? How often is it?

You can also try changing security image colors for exampel in secimg.inc.php change

Code: Select all

            $background_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
            $text_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);

to

Code: Select all

            $text_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
            $background_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);

The thing is. I just deleted the spam before i got here again.
I'll post some of the spam next time here.

About the change of the colors for the sec image.
Does this really work?

Have you tried disabling posting URLs? Yes, it does effect valid users, but guestbooks aren't meant for advertising their own websites anyway.

I do have some new ideas that will improve SPAM filter for the next version.

Posted: **Fri Oct 31, 2008 5:24 pm**

I would like the possibility to trigger the spamfilter with a predefined number of url's.
So that i can allow posters to post 1 or 2 url's in the regular message. I want them to be able to post a link which is not their own homepage.
But more than the allowed number of url's triggers the spamfilter.

Henrie

Klemen,

In future versions, if you do decide to follow the path that Henrie has suggested, could you allow for it to be switched off, as I personally do not wish to have URL's in the message.

Regards, Jim

Than default could be 0 (zero) URL's allowed in message.

Greetings,
Henrie

I am using GBook 1.6. This morning I started getting hammered with spam. The spam is not posting to the guestbook but I am getting the notification emails. I have that enabled because I need to moderate this guestbook. I have URL posting disabled. The messages are still coming in every couple of minutes. Here is an example:

Please don't post links to spamvertised websites here.

If you aren't getting any GBook entries then how can this be GBook spam? If a message is not added to GBook then GBook doesn't send any e-mails.
