How it works in Nucleus is like this:

Before a comment is added to the database, the content is scanned against a list of known spam links. If a match is found, the comment is not added and the user is directed to a spam page.

As for the plugin mechanisim in PunBB, I don't know if we can latch on to system internals, etc.

newera70, warez links would most likely be deleted.

But honestly, who needs links when there's Emule ;)

I know we can ban by a user by IP, but what do we do when it's a bot that has a multitude of addresses?

The reason I ask is that beginning last night, there's a bot that has been targeting Nucleus blog comments. It's promoting online casinos, etc. One of our developers adapted a blacklist plugin from Pivot to stop this from happening.

Does this sound like a plugin that can be adapted for PunBB?

Just did a traceroute to PunBB.org.

comox.textdrive.com (70.84.29.148)

Can we use this IP in our hosts file?

jeronimo,

Since you're using PunBB 1.2, we're all in a learning process at this time. So I don't have a quick answer but it looks fine like it is for now.

I'm glad you're trying out Nucleus.

Sorry, Rickard, we are on SF.net :)

sf.net should do something about that, any forum you visit on their servers is very slow. Makes it almost impossible to follow a thread or even do a simple search.

I hope punbb has a time counter similar to textpattern so that we can compare the performance of mysql and sqlite in real applications.

In /include/common.php:
// Enable debugging by removing // from the following line
// define('PUN_DEBUG', 1);

joshua: could you let us know how it goes with sqlite?

Necleus seems to look more like a journal type CMS

All blogs are sorted by date, but with a one line change to sort by post title, then it becomes what you want it to be.

Both Nucleus and B2Evo have multi-blogs, with multiple blogs, you can make just about any type of site that you desire.

Muddy,

Did you know that in the board description you can use html, so you could add all the links you want without messing with any files.

is nucleus better than blog:cms? Isn't bCMS based on nucleus?

Blog:CMS is based on Nucleus with 60 plugins configured in the default install.

As far as what's better, that's a subjective question, like asking if Debian is better than Mandrake.

If you're looking for a CMS that just has the basics, then Nucleus is a good start, with plugins you can add functionality as you see fit.

All I can say is give it a try, and pick a skin: http://skins.nucleuscms.org

let me guess, you think its nucleus?

Nucleus is one, but there are many others in the open source arena.

I just happen to like the simplicity of Nucleus and PunBB.

I think it would be easier to change permissions on config.php to 444, than copy/paste/ftp the config.php file and then still have to get rid of the install.php file.

Seems to be working fine:
1. Funky characters in names on punbb.org
2. Miss the fancy Apache directory listing
3. Like Paul said, the Archives return an error

Very fast though, hope it goes well on this new host.

gary, clear you cache, cookies, etc...

It's here: http://punbb.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=5200

Try it out on a test forum though.

To change permissions on a forum:
1. go into the admin area
2. click forums in the admin menu
3. click edit next to a forum name
4. you'll see the permissions

You'll be able to do it in PunBB 1.2, it has a new permission system.

The permissions are tied to forums, not categories though.
