i can think about it... but for now i'm finished... check all files and will upload it tomorrow to the market


here the last screenshot, where you can check and handle spam files and the settings page again

This is awesome. I hope it gets approved for the market soon.

One suggestion for the Stopwords. Could you add an extra check for the PLURAL of stop words ?

For example if the stopword is EXAMPLE, EXAMPLES could be banned also (example #2 LOAN and LOANS). How about it ? Seems logical ? Not sure if this could possibly create some problems .....

That way we could keep the words down and everything faster.

Thanks

good idea, but for this i have to use another method to compare the words... i'm working on some other functions to do this job, to make it faster and easier...


at moment i'm playing with the php function similar_text() for this, so admins can determine a percentage value to determine the similarity of the compared strings

Also: got your plugin from your blog and tried it.

It seems that it doesn't work well for stopwords. While i have (for example) the tinyurl.com to be filtered as spam, all ads with it (containing it) pass as normal.

Well, they don't. Trust me.

Here is my stop words.

i'm working on it

I have uploaded a new version with improved stopword search ... now I use strpos() to search for stopwords, this is not looking for the exact word, but whether the stopword occurs at any point in the text


if you think its ok, i will upload the modified version to the market too

Now seems to work, while i tested only in my dev online osclass with a few ads i posted myself.

The same applies to me, I could not test it in the live operation, but good to hear that all working fine now

When and if approved in Market, i will be glad to test it in a real online environment.

Thanks
