I've ran into a roadblock. I'm not sure what's stopping me now in posting to the boards on my site. I just get an error each time that says I'm not allowed to post.

I have edited the code considerably so it doesn't even look like a forum anymore. I use it to gather intelligence for an online multiplayer game so I've changed several fields on each of the forums and I have like 140 of them running on the site, so at some point I think I reached the spamlock limit and now it's not letting me continue to post.

What I'm currently doing is integrating the Mboard software with the vBulletin software by having a direct RSS feed attached from the Mboard to the vBulletin so whatever intelligence that get's posted will eventually be syndicated onto the forums. I got like 120 of the 140 done so far.

I've opened up the settings php included and changed the 1's to 0's but that didn't make any difference turning off the spam protection features. Any idea's.

Code: Select all

$settings['autosubmit']=1;
$settings['filter_sum']='d83hfdwg34';
$settings['junkmark_use']=0;
$settings['junkmark_limit']=60;

I was able to post without a problem:

Try closing all browser windows, that should help anytime you get blocked. I also don't recommend disabling JunkMark.

so so simple. I wish it were that easier before. I tried dumping cookies and everything and I couldn't figure it out. It works now. I thought it put me somewhere for spamming. I just have to do one post on each to make sure the feed actually syndicates over.

It's starting all over again on the next one. I've closed the browser twice. Right now I'm up to sarajevo.

I removed the Spamlock thingy and closed the browser like I did before and it's allowing me to post again. So I'm just going to disabled the last 20 do them really fast and then lock them all back up again.

I've encountered the same lockout problem, is it possible to add in the next update a feature that allows the admin to filter themselves out of the spam block process.

I had to disable the spam lock altogether in order to establish the message base I needed to create. and then re-enable it after.

what would also help is if you could add a small section of code that allows admin to filter and ignore stuff from specific IP's I say this as I for one am on a static IP address.

Will try to include something like this.

One of our employees from one of our branch offices is not able to post to the board but every other employee can. Any ideas why only that one person is not able to make posts?

Since everyone else can it's possible some software on his PC is causing problems. Try increasing your setting for $settings['junkmark_limit'] in settings.php, for example from 60 to 61 or 70 and see if that helps. Make sure the person having problems closes all browser windows before testing the changes.
