I made this template: <xen:require css="share_page.css" /> <div class="sharePage"> <xen:if is="{$xenOptions.facebookLike}"> <div class="facebookLike shareControl"> <xen:container var="$facebookSdk">1</xen:container> <div class="fb-like"...

It would be helpful to have a link in the Edit User area that opens the Spam Cleaner window. Maybe under the Actions drop down. Right now I don't see a similar way to achieve the same thing in the admin.

I would like to have {$valueRaw} available to use so that when a URL is input for the value, I can use it without XF converting it to a link automatically. See this thread: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/custom-fields-display-html-markup.62812/

That doesn't make sense to me, but if that's the way it's supposed to be then I guess would it be possible to have a {$valueRaw} where I actually get the value back that is put in, untouched.

It looks like {$value} gets converted into a link automatically if the value is a URL and {$valueURL} gets encoded so it can be used in a URL. I'm assuming that {$valueURL} is acting properly and {$value} is not. Why would {$value} just automatically be converted to a link if it's a URL? It...

That's good, but I think that might be too technical for some people. How's this? Q: What's a windshield typically made from? A: Glass

Gonna try this for an auto forum. Q: Which company makes the Civic and Accord? A: Honda

Alright thanks, I'll see what I can come up with.

Just one question in the Q&A? Any suggestions as to what makes a good question. I have seen, what's the name of the site, what's two + 2 ... things like that. What seems to work?

Honestly, it's a time thing. I'd rather just block vpn999 than setup a Q&A system. I'm already using ReCAPTCHA and XenUtiles. I'll probably end up making one, but for right now I'd like to stop the spam from vpn999. I end up spending a good chunk of time cleaning up spam users right now.

Alright thanks. I'll keep what I have in my htaccess blocking .vpn999.com and will also start to record the different hostnames I see come through and see what I can come up with.

Unfortunately, I don't have access to the root. That would just block vpn999.com IP's right ... what about the subdomain's? Here are a few from looking at my last few banned users. host27.server4.vpn999.com - 96.127.154.246 host21.server2.vpn999.com - 173.236.125.230 host46.server8.vpn999.com...

Probably 99% of spam sign ups are coming from vpn999.com IP's. host27.server4.vpn999.com host7.server9.vpn999.com And so on ... Is there a way I can block *.vpn999.com? I could almost guarantee that I have no legit users on my site using that. My other option would be to stick this in the...

Oh crap my bad. I didn't even see this or knew it existed. I thought people posted em up in this discussion.
