Proactive regexp spam pervernsion?

[puppi]

Hi guys,
I'm worried that human spammers with shortened links attack my newXF forum so I am wondering whether there are any method to prevent certain regexp patterns being posted?

There is in 1.2: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/spam-prevention-and-management.51091/

 

[puppi]

Great. But I'm using XF 1.1.5 right now. What should I do?

 

[Mike]

You'd need to look to see if there's a modification that does what you want.

 

[puppi]

Sorry to diverge, but when 1.2 will be released? How should I upgrade then? How much does it cost?

 

[Paul B]

Later this year, free to upgrade if you have active support.

Thanks Brogan. Meanwhile do you know any mod that do what I mentioned? It's crucial for me to have such measure.

Maybe this:

Waindigo seems a nice intermediate solution before arrivale of a through regexp blocker. But I got error while trying to install it:

Server Error
 
opendir(/www/forum/library/Waindigo/Listener/LoadClass): failed to open dir: No such file or directory

While I see that LoadClass is there, and I gave 755 permission to both Waindigo and its js. Could it be that it is incompatible with XF 1.1.5?

Post on the add-on thread, the author should respond.

You would need to post in the discussion thread of the Resource to flag Waindigo's attention. He usually fixes things pretty fast.
