bb code is Working in the other forum subcategories I tried, this means it's probably just disabled for some, to fix, if it matters enough: (this is taken from another board)

SOLUTION:
Go to the "Permissions" tab in your ACP.
Click on "Groups' forum permissions"
Select "Registered users", then click on "Submit"
Tick the "All forums" box, then click on "Submit"

About half your forums have the "role" set to "Standard access + polls". BBCodes will be working on those forums.
The rest all have custom permissions settings, and most have the "Can use BBCode" permission set to "No".
(Look in the "Content" tab under "Advanced permissions")

You need to check the permissions you have set in each of those forums. It would be best to use just a few "Roles" instead of playing with advanced permissions in each one. Define a new role if you want a combination of permissions not already available in one of the predefined roles.

Hmm, it looks like I could use the Textual Confirmation mod I had on the old board...worked very well against bots registering. It's quite old tho...do you think you could rewrite it?

I thought this was phpbb 3.0.7?

Above 3.0.6 the textual confirmation is built in, you don't need a mod.

just change the settings :D

Right, I found something...let's see if it works.
Not yet sure how to get the favicon to work for the board.

As far as I know the Q&A plugin lets you define your own question/answer so no bot can figure it out unless specifically tailored for this board.. like who's gonna do that :)

attached screenshot - the confirmation sort of works, when I put in a wrong value it gave the answer away on the next screen :)

works perfect now :)

but the redirect thing isn't? i dont know if you did that yet or im imagining things, the acneboard.com url does redirect but if people bookmarked the forum the address they used is

Code: Select all

http://www.acneboard.com/forum/index.php
or

Code: Select all

http://www.acneboard.com/forum/
so when they click the bookmark like most people do they will still think the site is down
