Little Help on some new settings - Akismet


Using Jamroom

Dazed:What constitutes spam on #2? So if a user posts links to a Limousine company in the Hong Kong is that going to get detected?

It could - since Akismet is doing the actual detection of spam I can't tell you with 100% certainty what is going to trigger it or not, but it checks the content and makes a decision if it is spam or not. Based on the spam we get here in our custom forms, I would say it gets it right about 95% of the time. You will still need to watch things - there's nothing that is 100%.

Tag and image links still apply long after being deleted


Using Jamroom

lornawebber:I just noticed the nolink tag is in the profile's tag cloud. Does the image search look at that too?

A regular site search would for sure, but just searching images - no.

lornawebber:I was under the impression that putting quotation marks around words searched for that exact string. If that's not the case, I have to re-evaluate my testing. I find that my lovely assistant has been tagging "no link" instead of nolink. I thought if I searched "no link" in quotes, the search would only return images with those two words together. If that's not the case, Search is finding all images with the word 'link' so that would explain why some of them don't have the tag "no link". D'oh.
Is there detailed JR documentation about how the search works? I've looked and can't find it. I need to re-write my site documentation as a result of this misunderstanding.

Quotes are correct - that should get you what you want - HOWEVER - since the word "no" is shorter than 3 characters, it gets a bit more complicated since this is too short to use the full text search indexes that JR maintains, so it has to jump into the Datastore to do an actual "like" check - this could be where there's a disconnect happening, but I will have to test to be sure how that plays out once it all gets parsed.

Broken Image Link

Dazed:Brian you should have my login info but let me know if you need it.

No - I don't need it - I know what is going on and will get it fixed up. Thanks though :)

Little Help on some new settings - Akismet


Using Jamroom

Dazed:3. This is something Brian just added for akismet because the bio was not included originally. I was running some tests on it and I did not get the emails. If I adde http://www.cnn.com to a blog I would get the email. If I entered that on a bio, nothing.

So there are 2 different things here:

1) User Probation - this is what sends the email for an offsite URL. It is not related to Akismet (spam checking service)
2) Akismet spam checking service - this checks fields for spam.

Right now the profile fields go through number #2 only, since #1 is only active for items that get CREATED - i.e. a comment entry, a new blog post, etc. Since the profile bio is an UPDATE to an existing item it just gets spam checked via Akismet.

Broken Image Link


Using Jamroom

So right now those little images are direct img calls - those need to be changed to be icons. I'll get that in place.

I think I know what is going on here - this is related to being able to use custom icon colors in a skin - I'll check this out.

Know that cometchat will not work with Redis sessions - just an FYI.

Restoring deleted image from recycle bin - not restored


Using Jamroom

You don't need to reset the image cache - on a site of your size I would recommend not doing it - you have hundreds of thousands of cached images.

I did fix a bug related to restoring profiles from the RB - this could be related, so I will check it out.

Ensure APCu functions have been enabled in your PHP install


Design and Skin Customization

derrickhand300:How should the following be optimized for jamroom
/etc/my.cnf file:--
key_buffer = 256M
max_allowed_packet = 32M
table_open_cache = 1536
table_definition_cache = 1536
open_files_limit = 10240
tmp_table_size = 256M
max_heap_table_size = 256M
sort_buffer_size = 2M
read_buffer_size = 2M
read_rnd_buffer_size = 768K
max_connections = 200
innodb_buffer_pool_size = 1G
innodb_flush_method = O_DIRECT
innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 0
ft_min_word_len = 3
ft_stopword_file = ""
--

This is good for the size of your server - MySQL should be running really well with this config.
