The version fixes the bug reported regarding the cases, when the board has guest posting allowing using default XenForo permissions, e.g. "Post replies" and "Post new thread" permissions are activated for unregistered users, and guests trying to post would get "Please enter a valid name" message. If guests have permission to post in threads and posts the Guest Posting product is practically inactive, it does not handle the submission of posts anymore, but by mistake its template modification...
Any plans to make this work with the resource manager? I will buy

Not running the latest version?
There was a bug in the package we have released recently because of which it did not include the bug-fix changes. If you have already installed with version 1.3.2 please re-download it and upload the files, after which you will get the Upgrade button in the Admin Panel as well. After upgrading the issue should be resolved fully.
Thank you!
I can see the problem has fixed, Then again, I have a feeling since it's just a guest post without recapture, it is possible to flood the DB with guest posts or perform a L7 DOS attack using a simple script?Thank you for the report. There was indeed a bug in the package we have released because of which it did not include the updates in XML files bundled in the zip. We have updated the ZIP package on our website and installed it on our demo board now. If you have already installed with version 1.3.2 please re-download it and upload the files, after which you will get the Upgrade button in the Admin Panel as well. After upgrading the issue should be resolved fully.

2 no
but when guest or spammer write a message and they don't connect or register after. It is show in latest actiivity tab
Another fix is related to SEO. From this version, guest posting will not be enabled if we detect the guest to be a search engine bot. The links to create a thread and reply to a thread will not be shown to Google and other search engines anymore, but if these links have been already indexed they may still be shown in the Dashboard. They will be removed as soon as the search engine re-indexes your pages.
@AddonsLab
Can you make this an option
If I understand correctly it will show something different to search engine than a guest. (Like cloaking?)
I desable reply th thread so I don't need that.
Thank you
The release implements a new option to set the username prefix for random usernames generated during guest registration. If you let the posts from unregistered users to expire and delete automatically there is no need to change this option, but if you manually approve guest posts and make them visible you may decide to change it. By default the prefix is "Guest-" so the usernames used will be "Guest-xxxxxx".
