[Latest Version] Jeff's Crazy Questions!

My b2evolution Version: Latest Version

I'm not a computer wizard by any means -- but I can get around pretty efficiently. I design sites, so I have a little experience in the coding industry, but when it comes to PHP -- I'm clueless.

So, here's my debacle.

http://exodyus.net is my site. This is where the blog is installed.

When you're on the site -- and you click the Category link, it does this:

Not Found

The requested URL /main/ was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

And Send Us Feedback does this:

Not Found

The requested URL /2009/12/03/auto-tune-and-the-gregory-brothers was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Can I get a little help, please?

I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do in order to get this thing to work correctly...

Thank you for your help, Yabba! That fixed the problem totally. I couldn't figure out for the life of me why it kept doing that. Lol.

Here's another newbian question:

Twitter -

On my Twitter account ...

This comes up:

Exodyus
Just posted Arrrgh! Testing. Twitter. http://exodyus.net/?p=15&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 #b2p

Dark blue - is obviously my name.
Red - text the system adds.
Green - is the title of my blog post.
Indigo - this is the problem. This is the URL the system adds.

The indigo links -- and the rest of that URL is just non-hypertext text.
http://exodyus.net/?p=15&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 #b2p

In Dashboard > Users > me > Twitter box;

It says -- Just posted $title$ @ $url$

What am I doing wrong?

Hi

I don't think this is anything to do with b2evo. The URL on your twitter stream seem to work but Twitter is not parsing the url correctly to turn it all into a link.

Interesting...

Well, I couldn't figure it out -- so I just left it alone, since not that many people read the blog anyways and I work so much, it doesn't stay constantly updated. Maybe twice a week at this point, lol.

Here's another question!

Anti-Spam and Bots

I'm having a HUGE problem with bots commenting and leaving drafts on my blogs, but I cannot for the life of me find a CAPTCHA or an signifying entry in order to keep them at bay. I've seen some that are like 0+0= [ ? ]

And you have to put 0 to signify you're not a bot -- but this has nothing.

And the second problem I'm having is going INDIVIDUALLY -- 1 by 1 for a months worth of posting, which some days have 10+ on them ... and there isn't like a select SOME or ALL feature and then I've been reporting them as well, so it is just insanely time-consuming.

Is there a download for CAPTCHA or something in the making?

There is a plugin called Turing Test which allows you to ask a question and get an answer but I think EdB has taken his entire site down so his plugins aren't available anymore. I have a copy somewhere if you want to give that a try.

There is also reCAPTCHA Plugin which lives here :

Thank you, sir.

Will this site allow me to add the CAPTCHA to each blog comment, to detour any moronic spambots?

I think so, not used it myself :-)
