Serendipity Forums

Hi,

I've searched and searched in this forum.
The problems are 1) the capcha is not working coz the images are not showing up. it's the same problem mentioned here http://www.s9y.org/forums/viewtopic.php ... ght=capcha, but that dude hasn't find a solution yet.

2) the wordfilter in the spamblocker doesn't seem working well. I simplely add "favorite-casino\.com" in the word list and assume it will block any comments with that string. well, it didn't.
I tried to use regular expression to block any comments which contains a link, it failed to do so either.

Does the wordfilter really work ? I did set wordfilter to Moderate.

any help will be greatly appreciated coz spams got added everyday.

The Captcha does usually work on all setups. It seems you have not activated it in your blog, so I cannot debug anything. I'll also need your phpinfo() output.

About the wordfilter: it only filters URLs and author names, not body content. This is because body content filtering is a bad approach we didn't want to support. However it could be added easily into a blog. So if you entered "favorite-casino.com" into the URL wordlist, only if the author supplied that URL in his author URL info it would get blocked. And it did/does work for me.

Do you know some PHP so that you could add a few strings in there to see if the code gets evaluated?

thank you very much for the clarification. The wordfilter is working great (ya, it does work). so is there a good word list for the wordfilter ?
Now I am adding each one manually, but new spams come around quite often.

thanks again .
