This is the solution I use in classifiedsbarcelona.com to prevent Spam from India.

Usage:

Edit your commmon.php find the function isInSpamList

And replace the whole function with this code (there’s more than 1 function be aware)

Just a simple mod to allow publishing advertisement in child categories.

Edit the files:

/content/item-new.php
/content/item-manage.php

Search for:

$query="SELECT idCategory,name,(select name from ".TABLE_PREFIX."categories where idCategory=C.idCategoryParent) FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."categories C order by idCategoryParent, `order`";

Replace in both files for:

$query="SELECT idCategory,name,(select name from ".TABLE_PREFIX."categories where idCategory=C.idCategoryParent) 
	FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."categories C where C.idCategoryParent!=0 order by idCategoryParent, `order`";

IMPORTANT – From OC Blog

We just found an important issue in the software that can be dangerous if somebody finds out how to take advantage of it.

Also I added all the language files (because of that the download file now is bigger) and there’s a temporary fix for an issue related with the dates in case you want to change the dates format.

Please download ASAP the latest version of the software 1.7.0.2

Last months I’ve been pretty busy with my studies and I needed to do a final project for my Master in Software Engineering.

This project is Ocaku, that was presented to the jury of the master 1 week a go. I’ve got an score of 9 over 10 possible points, not bad at all :D

Now I need to promote my work and I will love any kind of help spreading it ;)

I need to be honest, Open Classifieds is in a huge problem.

We have many downloads, load of work to do, support to offer to you and others and that’s not possible since we don’t get any benefit from the software.

I started this just as an small script and I decided to release it under GPL, I never expected to grow this much.

The problem is that I’m spending many hours in this project and I can’t. I need money to make a living like anyone else. Donations and services are not enough, currently we work on this 3 persons, being me the one who spends the most time in this.

So I don’t want to have 2 different software (1 GPL and other with extra stuff private), I really believe in Open Source and I think that from the services should be enough, but is not.

For me the solution seems to be offering a professional edition that’s not more than few services wrapped in a better price.

Open Classifieds Professional Edition

• Software installation
• 1 year Premium support (direct support from email)
• read more

Promotion 40€

This is the last chance to make Open Classifieds work as a business, if doesn’t succeed I will need to stop working as I am doing right now. Is sad but is just like this, I will stop the support and the development for next releases and I will just fix bugs. Hope is not like this, I’m just being realistic :(
