   I have installed the plug-in on my blog. But somehow it does not work - even though SK2 has already caught quite a number of comment spams, the count show a "0" - just like on your blog here...

   Did i miss anything??

2. Sunday, March 20th 2005 by Jackdaw (#1751)

   I had 58 SPAM using SK1, SK2 install reset the count to 0. So maybe it isn't working or maybe you haven't had SPAM yet. Time will tell, the plugin may be working perfectly.

3. Sunday, March 20th 2005 by Thomas (#1752)

   Err -- as i wrote, SK2 has already caught numerous cmt spams. The counter just says zero and won't change.

   Maybe that's because SK2 doesn't kill the spams anymoren but moves them to the database spam-marked instead??

4. Sunday, March 20th 2005 by Matt Read (#1753)

   Thomas, The current counter only counts comments sent to "hell". So if they are just moderated they are sent to "purgatory", and waiting for you to moderate them. So I think the prob is that your comments are sitting in moderation (purgatory) and have not been sent to hell.

   But I'll check with dr Dave to see what he thinks, and get back to you.

5. Monday, March 21st 2005 by Thomas (#1755)

   OK. Because hell has kinda been abandoned in SK2. So we should count the purgatory instead, i suppose.

6. Monday, March 21st 2005 by Thomas (#1759)

   Hey - i can see that you're already running an updated version. Can't wait to get my hands on that one! Looks like great work!

7. Tuesday, March 22nd 2005 by Matt Read (#1760)

   Thomas, yeah I changed it a bit. But talking to dr Dave, there was a bug in SK2 that wasn't increasing the stats count, so first try upgrading SK.

   Also, right now most comments go in to moderation and are not killed, for testing purposes. So when SK2 is final most spam comments will go to hell.

   I'll package the new stats up now and release it shortly.

8. Tuesday, March 22nd 2005 by Thomas (#1763)

   Alrighty - i have it up and running on my site. But the archive still reports v1.0 - is that a bug or a feature?

9. Tuesday, March 22nd 2005 by Matt Read (#1765)

   Thomas, you caught me. I uploaded the new version to the wrong place. But it's all better now. Try re-downloading the plugin. Sorry about that.

10. Wednesday, March 23rd 2005 by Thomas (#1768)

    Way cool. Thanks for the great work - i have it up and running on my site. My karma is -382...

12. Sunday, April 3rd 2005 by Thomas (#1783)

    Just a proposal: As far as i can tell, SK2 Stats only shows the Comment spams, but not the Trackback spams. Could this be included as well?

    Best regards, Thomas

13. Tuesday, April 5th 2005 by Matt Read (#1785)

    Thomas, hmmm, strange. That would be a problem with SK2 not counting them. Have you upgraded to the latest version. It has many bug fixes.

14. Tuesday, April 5th 2005 by Beth (#1786)

    I've downloaded this and I'm trying to use it but it's not showing up in my footer and it's giving me an error. The url is: http://eurotrash.cc/

    The error is: Warning: Division by zero in /home/.radialdryer/slainte/eurotrash.cc/wp-content/plugins/sk2-stats.php on line 32.

    Is there anyway to actually put it in my footer? Gracias!

15. Tuesday, April 5th 2005 by Beth (#1787)

    Ack. Nevermind, I've got the problems sorted. Nice job with the plugin!

16. Thursday, April 7th 2005 by michaelm (#1789)

    This is a great tool. Any idea on how I could bump it up off the very very bottom of my page back onto the white of my (kubrick) theme's background? I just wonder in which file the location of its output is configured.
    Best,

    michaelm, in footer.php of your theme just add <?php sk2_stats(); ?> and it will out put the message there.

    I get an error:

    warning: sk2_stats(): Failed opening '/home/bookiebo/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/SK2/sk2_util_class.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/bookiebo/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/sk2-stats.php on line 19

    i installed this through the 1-click-install, but I also downloaded the zip file. There is no sk2_util_class.php file to be found.

20. Tuesday, April 12th 2005 by Matt Read (#1796)

    Edwin have you installed SK2? it will only work if SK2 is installed. That sk2utilclass.php file is part of the SK2 core, so make sure it is installed properly.

21. Tuesday, April 12th 2005 by Edwin (#1797)

    I had SK2 installed through 1-click install. Might try and install it manually.

22. Tuesday, April 12th 2005 by Edwin (#1798)

    Okay, I hadn't installed SK2. I thought I did, but I didn't.

    Now I just have to find out on the 'division by zero' error.

23. Tuesday, April 12th 2005 by Matt Read (#1799)

    Edwin, just released version 1.2 to fix that error.

24. Wednesday, April 13th 2005 by Edwin (#1802)

    Ah... Thanks. Now it works

    BTW. I love how all the WP plugin makers are so nice and friendly. Much better then I've seen on other Blogging groups.

25. Thursday, April 14th 2005 by WooHooBlog (#1800)

    The one-click install thinger doesn't install the new version of SK. It installs the old, which is what screwed me up at first.

    I am getting this message error on a check:

    When commenting, I get this:

    I have tried changing to 777 permissions to all SK2 files but that didn't help.

    Any idea?

31. Monday, May 16th 2005 by king_arthur (#1964)

    The situation has slightly changed: commenting seems OK now,
    when checking out compatibility I get now,

    Nice to see this feature available for SK2. I have a question before I finally upgrade from SK1.x, however. Is the number of eaten spams retained from the old version to the new one when you upgrade? SK has killed over 5300 spams on my blog, and I'd hate to lose all that karma.

    [...] Just downloaded, installed and configured a new plugin for Wordpress. It’s called SH-Autolink. It basically takes pre-configured key words (like Wordpress) and makes the key word into a link to a web site. I used to use a program called phpGiggle (written by a co-worker, actually) but it didn’t get some of the words and was harder to configure to get it to work. It was also what is called a Wordpress hack whereas SH-Autolink is a Wordpress plugin. This is a great addition to the plugins I currently use. The plugins I currently use are: Auto-Close Comments, Blogroll Update, Category Image(s), Countdown, Content Show/Hide, Gravatar, Iimage Browser, Random Quote of the Day, Easy Post-To-Post Links, Recent Comments, Recent Posts, SH-Autolink, Spam Karma 2, Spam Karma 2 Stats, and WP Contact Form. I also use the WP Admin plugins SpotMilk (what I am currently using), SpotPress, and Tiger Style Administration. [...]
