Only bad thing it could do if it you used it on a frequently accessed page, might slow down your site a little bit.</p> <p>I'll double check why it's not working in 0.9</p> <p>update: oh they changed the name of the field from "favorites" to "bb_favorites" so it's like this now:</p> <pre><code>function get_topic_favorites_count( $topic_id=0) { global $bbdb, $topic; if (!$topic_id) $topic_id = (int) $topic-&gt;topic_id; return $bbdb-&gt;get_var(&quot;SELECT COUNT(*) FROM &quot;.$bbdb-&gt;usermeta.&quot; WHERE meta_key=&#39;bb_favorites&#39; AND meta_value REGEXP &#39;[[:&lt;:]]&quot;.$topic_id.&quot;[[:&gt;:]]&#39;&quot;); }</code></pre> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/favourites#post-17916 Sun, 03 Aug 2008 11:54:18 +0000 Thion 17916@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>It appears that function<code>get_topic_favorites_count</code> is not working in 0.9 - anyone know how to make it working?

Or, a while ago, Trent mentioned he added a couple of fields to his registration form, and the bots haven't figured that out yet.</p> <p>Also, it seems like the bots all tend to fill out the interests and website, but users normally don't. Maybe you could add something to your template that says "Please don't fill out this field" that a bot could not read, would fill out, and then you could write a plugin based on that? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/spam-registration#post-11887 Sat, 10 Nov 2007 17:51:28 +0000 Trent 11887@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Why would I want to stop spam registration?

The password is already e-mailed, so put in an activation link aswell. If not activated using the link in 1 or 2 days, the person wont be registrated at all.</p> <p>Many forum software have something like this, why not bbpress? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/spam-registration#post-11881 Sat, 10 Nov 2007 12:44:00 +0000 sambauers 11881@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>A plugin would be welcome.

The post I had made earlier today is now gone. Either I have used offensive language, enough to get my post deleted, (I <em>have</em> heard that GMT is a swear word in some country, can't remember which at the moment...), or it was accidentally/bugzadentally erased? Like, automagically? Any input? Did I miss my answer? </p>
