small howto on how to install the keyword filter.

1) in 'local/templates/pages/spam.tpl' add the following line:
<li><h3><a href="/admin/log/file_viewer.php?filename=banned_keywords.txt">keyword block</a></h3></li>

2) add a file named 'banned_keywords.txt' in 'local/cache'. Make sure your webserver can write to it (otherwise you can't use it in admin). In this file you add keywords.

3) add the following line to your spam section in 'local/config/sfactive.cfg'

$GLOBALS['spam_filter_keywords'] = 1; // filter for banned keywords

               /** block posts if they contain certain keywords. */
                if ($GLOBALS['spam_filter_keywords'] > 0) {
                    $keywords = file(SF_CACHE_PATH.'/banned_keywords.txt','r');
                    $matched_keywords = array();
                    for ( $i=0; $i= $GLOBALS['spam_filter_keywords']) {
                        $ret=1;
                        $keyword_string = implode(' ', $matched_keywords);
                        $this->Log("Keyword Spam Detected: " . $keyword_string);
                    }

                }
