Eya guys,
I have a forum with an introducing section that is quite spam sensitive if you get what i mean
Now i stumbled upon a mod for phpbb called, auto lock mod;
Its basically a lock version of the standard 'prune' functionality within phpbb.
But you might have guessed it includes some SQL changes/addons in the db,
and im not sure if this script would work if i only change the SQL table/prefix names?
For some pics and info you can also view the blog of the author;

I simple would try it out.
I also use mods which are only written for phpBB.
Backup your old files and database and check if it works correctly. Sometimes there are issues with the 24 hour date format. I had such an issue with the jail mod but at that time I was glad to have such a mod to ban members for a limited time. |

warren-the-ape, if you use XAMPP on your local PC, like many of us here, you can test mods like these out to your heart's content and only publish them on your production site once you have worked out any modification issues.  |
