Re: When forum spam escapes into news feeds

The latest release of FluxBB (v1.5.8) includes a directory for adding anti-spam plugins – might be worth a look.

I’ve updated the repo to build 1.5.8, we just need to deploy the latest code from our repo at some point. Robert, let me now if/when is good timing for you.

Through a Rube-Goldbergish construction involving this forum’s feed, an instance of Tiny Tiny RSS and its “Republish feed items” feature, and Feedburner I am now moderating which forum posts appear in txpforum’s timeline.

That is much much better already. Thank you Robert!

Is it by any chance possible to hook into the Feedburner RSS feed that feeds the twitter account. I used an online twitter to rss service to get an rss feed from the twitter account, but it doesn’t make the links embedded in the tweet clickable so visiting from my feed reader first takes me to twitter and I can then click on the link to visit the forum. Or is there a better way to subscribe to @txpforum via RSS?

Franz suggested some add-ons which would prevent bot registrations but I feel that we do not have that kind of problem. So he thinks that we’d have to wait for (or convince someone to build) an Akismet add-on.

Go!

Re: When forum spam escapes into news feeds

OK, I’ve prepared the GitHub repo for next release – I’ll upgrade the forum this evening, after work.
