|
1) Extra the spam tarball. Move the resulting 'spam/' subdirectory within the |
| 10 |
|
appropriate 'sites/*/modules' directory. Be sure the web server has read |
| 11 |
|
permissions to this directory and the files within it. |
| 12 |
|
|
| 13 |
|
2) Log into your website and enabled the spam module. |
| 14 |
|
|
| 15 |
|
Visit "Administer >> Site building >> Modules" and scroll down to the spam |
| 16 |
|
section. Put a check mark next to "Spam API" and any spam filters you'd |
| 17 |
|
like to enable. For now, we'll assume you are enabling all spam filter |
| 18 |
|
modules. Click 'Save configuration' to enable the modules. |
| 19 |
|
|
| 20 |
|
3) Finish enabling and configuring your spam filters. |
| 21 |
|
|
| 22 |
|
Visit "Administer >> Site configuration >> Spam" and put a checkbox next to |
| 23 |
|
all content types you'd like to filter. By default the spam module will |
| 24 |
|
only scan comments. Skip the "Actions" and "Advanced configuration" sections |
| 25 |
|
for now and click "Save configuration" if you have made any changes. |
| 26 |
|
|
| 27 |
|
Next, you must also click the "Filters" tab on this page to finish enabling |
| 28 |
|
your spam filters. (Until http://drupal.org/node/541876 is fixed, you |
| 29 |
|
must visit the page any time you enable a new spam filter module.) |
| 30 |
|
|
| 31 |
|
4) Optionally disable spam scanning for certain roles. |
| 32 |
|
|
| 33 |
|
Visit "Administer >> User management >> Permissions" and enable "bypass |
| 34 |
|
filters" permissions for any roles that you trust to never post spam. |
| 35 |
|
|
| 36 |
|
|
| 37 |
|
The spam module is now enabled and scanning new content as it is posted on your |
| 38 |
|
website. Continue on to README.txt to learn more about configuring and using |
| 39 |
|
the spam module. |
