I did not realize my wishlist item was already built into the dolphin tools section. I've never used it before other than entire database backup. Which table do I need to back up and restore before and after updates? Actually you do not want to do it that way. https://www.deanbassett.com |
I have two users I am trying to flag as spam. one shows up in the unconfirmed list the other one shows up in the approval list. Neither one of them has anything in their profile that will automatically put them in spam. I tried searching for their email or userid in the Spam Accounts or Non Spam Accounts, but they did not show up. How I I move them to spam account?

Dean- Do you have a tool, that will check messages sent using the Dolphin email system for urls, email addresses or certain key words? This would keep paying members from sending messages with their email address to non paying members... :) Also would allow me to filter for words like h o t m m a i l or dot com or at dot com Thanks!

Thanks! Peer If you can't find them, then just delete them using dolphins normal delete functions. Finding them in the non spam account list is the only way you can flag them. Also. unconfirmed, or any other account that is not active do not show up in the non spam account list in the current version. I developed the spam filters for people that do not want to go to the trouble of confirming accounts, so i did not even take unconfirmed accounts into consederation. I will add a option to show all member regardless of active status in the next version. https://www.deanbassett.com |

Then you better get on it... its worth to me the same amount of $$ as your other spam tool ;) Peer Peer L. Plaut Executive Director, Single Booklovers Connecting Bookworms Since 1970 |
I know they are spam accounts because they say... Buy Coffee.... :D Again, I'm not complaining, deleting two users a day is manageable. If you come out with an upgrade, let me know. Peer

is there a way to add keywords to this blocked list?
Peer L. Plaut Executive Director, Single Booklovers Connecting Bookworms Since 1970 |
Yes. The file is modules/deano/dolphin_anti_spam/data/keywords.txt https://www.deanbassett.com |
The number is VERY LOW thank you so much!!! However, the word "buy" slipped through a couple of times. I don't know if it is the list or not.... :) Again, thank you for your wonderful product!!!!! We are so happy... we can finally get to the business of running our site. If you ever need a referral for this product, please let me know.... We will be happy to endorse you! Peer Peer L. Plaut Executive Director, Single Booklovers Connecting Bookworms Since 1970 |
The list as it is now is very small. The key word filter was new in the last version. So it's still under development testing various techniques. https://www.deanbassett.com |
Dean, Your product continues to work amazingly well. Again, I am NOT COMPLAINING. Your product has save me hours of agony... and my administrator hours of frustration.. This one message came through with what I believe to be a url.... I have pasted verbatim below for your review. Greetings! I am Val McVay and I think it sounds quite fantastic when you say it. I am a travel agent but before long I will be on my possess. My friends say it is really not fantastic for me but what I appreciate performing is caravaning and I have been doing it for pretty a even though. For a though I've been in West Virginia.

I was just migrated to 7.1.3 and getting the error attached. Please advise. Thanks! Peer Peer L. Plaut Executive Director, Single Booklovers Connecting Bookworms Since 1970 |
Uninstall and re-install the module, however this appears to be a permalink problem with dolphin. Are you having problems accessing any other modules? https://www.deanbassett.com |
You appear to be having problems with other modules as well. And viewing profiles. https://www.deanbassett.com |
What's the newest version may I ask? |

How does this product interact with the Dolphin Spam in 7.1? Thanks! Peer Peer L. Plaut Executive Director, Single Booklovers Connecting Bookworms Since 1970 |
Works just fine, but it does not interact as in they do not talk to each other. https://www.deanbassett.com |
Version 1.1.0 has been released. This version contains a couple of minor bug fixes and a lot of improvements. https://www.deanbassett.com |
I would like to replace Sorry. Site is currently down for Maintenance. Please check back later. With below that would diplay the message in color and then redirect... will the below code work? Thanks!

Stats all set to Zero. See attachment. I had a different issue with 1.0, I'm on 1.1 now, where you thought a cron job might not be configured. I'm pretty sure my cron problems have been resolved no by HFW as other things are working. Do I have to create a new cron job for this? Thanks! Peer Peer L.

One other thing. https://www.deanbassett.com |
Deano- Thanks for your reply. I will try to reference a link in the future. The redirection code was just as sample. I really wanted to redirect them to the contact us page which has a CAPTCHA, this way if it was a legitimate user, they could easily contact us. Is it possible to remove the Dolphin Spam in 7.1.4 and just use your product? Your product is much more useful. Thanks! Peer Peer L.

Yes. Go to Admin -> Tools -> Antispam Tools https://www.deanbassett.com |

I do not for the life of me understand that part. Can't see how they can show up in both lists. https://www.deanbassett.com |
Deano- no the product works great... maybe it was an ip address or something. Everytime she filled out the profile, she kept disappearing. It never occured for me to check the spam filter as it is 99.9% accurate. Its that good :) So, I created her profile for her and it took. This is why she is in the membership database now and also in the spam filter. At this point, the spam filter would not kick in and keep her from logging in correct? That is all I am worried about now. In the future, before I recreate a customer's account, I will check the spam filter. :) Peer Peer L. Plaut Executive Director, Single Booklovers Connecting Bookworms Since 1970 |
Most likely not. https://www.deanbassett.com |
Deano thanks. I have modified our procedures to reflect this information. This was the first time a "legitimate" user has ever had trouble joining. Again, a testiment to the effectiveness and accuracy of this product. Peer Peer L. Plaut Executive Director, Single Booklovers Connecting Bookworms Since 1970 |
Deano, if you move somebody from the spam list to a regular member, are they notified that their account has been activated? Thanks! Peer Peer L. Plaut Executive Director, Single Booklovers Connecting Bookworms Since 1970 |

I noticed circled in red in the attached image... that accounts could be deleted after a joing because of one reason or another... Are these accounts deleted or just moved back into spam? The reason I ask is if a normal member tried to do something like this, I would hate for their account to be deleted. I would rather it be put into the spam folder so I could work with the member.

I spammed a user and about three hours later, the same user signed up again using the exact same email and description. How do I operate this module? |
If you flagged them as spam then they should not have been able to. https://www.deanbassett.com |
just messaged you. |
Traced the spam signups, at least that one to facebook connect. Non of the anti spam modules can block signups from there. Not sure what to do about that one. https://www.deanbassett.com |
While the topic of Facebook connect is up I have something to report. Yesterday I signed up a friend on his phone and instantly he was detected as a bot and blocked registration. This happened due to the listed reason of join form submitted in less than 5 seconds. I use your Facebook Connect module (outdated version but it works just fine still yet) and that is how I signed this person up. Except I pass all the values to the join form so that the username can be changed if desired by the new member. I did this and know it took at least 10 seconds but it was fast since most values were already passed to the join form. I would be more interested in removing this restriction when your Facebook connect module is used due to the increased speed of submission. I want it to be fast and easy to sign up naturally but I can't say it was less than 5 seconds yet the issue still occurred. Just a report. I do not need any follow up.. Thanks Deano. |
Deano I need some help soon as you are able. I just had another legitimate member blocked because they form was submitted in less than 5 seconds. I used your facebook connect module to auto fill my join form so this happens. Where or what file can I remove the 5 second rule? |

I actually do have additional fields and bot prevention fields that extends the time some. I will monitor everything and move to 2 seconds if needed. Thanks. |
I've had 3 additional legitimate accounts blocked. Even with the value being "1". I assume making this number "0" would disable this feature? |
