Filtrbox delivered the information included below, recently. I'm wondering if there is a particular issue the UKeiG group has forgot to address in their setup? Is this a problem in an older version of xwiki and they're needing an upgrade? Or is this a more fundamental problem that may affect other xwiki installations?
What are the best ways of avoiding "spam on user profile pages"?? Isn't there an easy way to integrate jcaptcha to side-step auto-generated spam? http://www.ukeig.org.uk/blog/2008/07/ukeig-xwiki-is-about-to-close.html Sunday, July 13, 2008 The UKeiG xWiki is about to close The UKeiG xWiki at http://ukeig.xwiki.com/ will be closed down on Monday 28th July. The UKeiG xWiki was always an experiment and we chose xWiki because of the software's flexibility, power and sophistication. It was an interesting experiment and in the initial stages highlighted the importance of controlling access rights at all levels! We succeeded in blocking spam on the main pages but have still not mastered the art of stopping spammers clogging up the user profiles pages :-( UKeiG is now researching options for a Content Management System for its main web site and our 'spec' includes wiki and blog capability. Our main blog will remain for the time being at http://www.ukeig.org.uk/blog/ and powered by Blogger, and our Wordpress Web 2.0 blog will stay at http://ukeig.wordpress.com/. If you want to download copies of the wiki pages now is the time to do it. We do, though, have a local backup of the content so let Karen Blakeman ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) know if you desperately need access to anything. -- Niels http://nielsmayer.com _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
