http://www.silverstripe.org/home/ http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5523 Upgrade from 2.3.2 to 2.4.0-rc1 smooth for standard page types but not able to install custom page types. Admin UI allows selection of type but does not store type. Looking at the DB, the build process does not appear to be adding the new content type tables.

Really looking forward for a stable release here. Great work guys! (as always) Thu, 22 Apr 2010 09:48:09 +1200 Enrique http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5521 http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5520 This is sad. You guys are really letting Concrete5 1UP you here. Come on guys! You are missing the boat and your updates are as slow as molasses. Your documentation is garbage. You have no themes. The community is dying. You guys were the hear throb upcoming cms a couple years ago and you've just let it go. Really sad. Thu, 22 Apr 2010 07:23:54 +1200 Joel http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5520 http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5518 I have to say that I agree. These spam issues are embarrassing. At least use Disqus or IntenseDebate if you don't want to really work on the commenting system. Pfft. Thu, 22 Apr 2010 05:29:44 +1200 Agreed http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5518 http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5504 Woohoooo nested URLS! Mon, 19 Apr 2010 15:50:16 +1200 Josh http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5504 http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5417 I have to agree. Most users (regular and webmasters) are scared of spam when setting up a website. So when investigating a new cms system, only to find that the site is filled with spam, must be a major turn off!

There must be something that could be done to add additional layer of blocking?

But as "side note" ;) Been following SS for a while now and really like what you guys have done! Keep It Up! Sun, 11 Apr 2010 10:56:00 +1200 Ranie http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5417 http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5414 > In the last year, Mollom has blocked 285,385 spam

My heart beats about 100,000 times per day, but should it fail for longer than a few seconds and skip a few of those beats, I'd collapse and have a trip to hospital.

Sometimes one or two misses are far more significant than a huge pile of hits. If the amount of spam in the comments exceeds the number of bona-fide comments, well... why have comments? It doesn't matter if you block 10,000 spam per day, or 100,000 or 2^256. It is the ratio of spam to actual content that the user sees that counts.

Maybe Mollom should be augmented to include an "admin notify" feature, so that these deposits of internet turd-lets can be scrubbed before days go by. Sat, 10 Apr 2010 12:30:51 +1200 Why? http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5414 http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5413 I'm looking at a bunch of spam here that was posted over 17 hours ago. That looks *really* bad.

There needs to be a way that we can report this stuff, so it can be highlighted and removed immediately. The community is here to help!

We use Mollom on this website which does provide a CAPTCHA if it senses that your comment is spam - see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZi-O9MkFYM to learn about this.

In the last year, Mollom has blocked 285,385 spam attempts, which relates to our blog and our forum. No system is perfect, so apologies that a couple of spam showed up here.

Our automated spam filters catch a huge amount of spam, but they don't catch everything... Fri, 09 Apr 2010 11:15:48 +1200 Tim Copeland http://www.silverstripe.org/#PageComment_5376
