cool feedback - yeah i was just trying to see what happens if one does what your regular new installer does...

you're obviously advanced user smile hehe

thx for helpful inputs...


EDIT: on production sites I'd obviously use email verification and basic captcha or other together....
i've not seen bots being able to post to those forums....

EDIT 2: oh and if you see any other obvious security related issue to anything regarding that site I'm more than happy to hear about it....

Silly little question:

How do you get a tooltip effect - the title attribute working in this code I have. It's in an xml and I wanted it to show some text - but only when I hover over it!

Is it something I need to set in the .css?

Basically I need it to show what type of file it is when I hover over it: I'd input something like: Rapidshare RAR  or Mediafire ZIP

Thanks for any tips...

it's spambots for sure... had it on other forums aswell. they register but can't post. but they're inflating numbers of users.

i want to know what they are exploiting - there must be a deficiency somewhere

i installed anti-spam now - see if that stops it

vanilla yes. (before that user registered when i decided to change)

very nice! look forward to trying it !

this lends itself very well to promotion use aswell
instead of quote x
you have information on how to do things

like a DID YOU KNOW  thing so that users know better how to use site!

this is brilliant!

@utchin: do it in small steps though so that you can output something in 72 hours big_smile
like an extension which  allows a block to be displayed below or above footer... something simple where admin can then post whatever thing he has to post.....

then grow it... based on feedback and useability?

just an idea...

EDIT: that would also solve my issue with the smilies creator I've been chatting to... if I can tell him : look with that and that smilie set extension we can bundle a second block of code just above footer with a link to your site - he'll be more willing to provide content.... result: more content will come pun's users way fast.

Back on topic:
I've seen certain boards just make a dummy user post every X posts with their ad or whatever...

I've thought about just adding it around the actual forum as I often see on commercial sites - doing it in the main.tpl (not for keydog - but for other forums I play with)

but I  guess many people interested in the aspect of ads would want it in pages?

what do other boards do?
http://www.freakitude.com/2007/02/22/ad … um-topics/
guess that's an example for the adsense thing - in that case for phpbb...

this also an interesting example of what could be done...

it's a post in EXTENSIONS saying in a polite way what is wanted regarding an ads management extension to those willing to code it.
if you can help on that front : post
if you can't : save space and don't waste their time

That second sentence is supposed to contradict the first sentence? You have an unusual idea of what's acceptable.

if unicef or wwf or greenpeace or XXX wants to run ads on my site. then what's bad about that? they are benefiting humanity... mostly

ads can be run at no cost - it's not about making money.

anyway the discussion isn't about should 100% of pun forums run ads - we're talking about extensions and if enough people want them they should all be able to say that they'd like such an extension.

no one said pun devs have to spend time on it - or you. but don't stand in the way of those that need/want it. my opinion.

people associate the word ad with bad things big_smile

call it : fancy notices - images and flash objects embedded across your site....

there's a market for the extension that is considerable
