Latest version of PMWiki (well, downloaded about 3/4 weeks ago).
You can try any of the pages at
http://www.followtheboat.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Main
And the blocklist page is the same as PMWikis - Site.Blocklist
It wouldn't be anything to do with me being logged in as administrator
would it?

After reading one user's issues with spam I thought I'd investigate the
blocklist function. Clearly there is something I'm missing here. Despite
reading the explanation on this facility I'm uncertain of a couple of
things:
1. Can I just copy and paste the contents of Site.Blocklist on PMWiki as I
see it?
Yes. It's also possible to configure a site to automatically download that
page once per day and use it.
The page on blocklists tells me there are two formats (using /\)
yet the page Site.Blocklist is just a list of blocked words. No sign of
any forward or backward slashes.
One format is a simple word format -- that's what you tend to see
on pmwiki.org. The other format is a regular expression format, which
is denoted by using slashes. Regular expressions allow patterns, checking
for word boundaries, etc.
2. If I do have to add slashes, where do I put them? The example 'block:
/\.uni\.ch/' is a bad one because there's a .ch involved here, just to
complicate simple brains like mine! How would you, for example, block the
word viagra - do you just enter 'block:viagra'.
Yes, entering "block:viagra" will work, in that it will block
any post containing the string "viagra". But be careful, because
something like "block:cialis" will end up blocking normal words
like "specialist".
If so, why can I still enter this word in a page entry?
I've created my own Site.Blocklist page and added a list of blocked words.
I have added to my config file the lines:
$EnableBlocklist = 1;
$EnableWhyBlocked = 1;
Is there something I'm missing?
I don't see anything you're missing. Is there a url we could
look at?
What version of PmWiki are you running?
Pm
