[...] Based on your feedback, and on my own experience getting slashdotted last week, I’ve changed the pre-release quite a bit from previous pre-releases and it’s now ready for a wider audience. Here’s a quick rundown of the changes: [...]

This current version of BB2 seems to have a conflict with Postie Plugin v0.9.9.3.2 for WP. When Postie checks for and new emails to be added as a new post I see the following error:

I tried installing on WP 1.5 and received this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: is_admin() in /home/MYSITE/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/bb2/bad-behavior-wordpress.php on line 168

Is the update not compatible with WP 1.5?

Hi Michael, the site has 200 MB space on a linux server, DB is 40 MB (w/out plugins), files and all is 120 MB. Runs WP202.
Yesterday I got a disk quota alert from the server, and the bb2 log table (17 MB) was unexpected. Small as it may be, it added to other large files that my users merrily uploaded.
I disabled bb2, emptied the log table, cleaned up some large images, re-enabled bb2. Let’s see how big the log table becomes before making a final decision.

The bottom line, Michael, is that that hosting plan sucks, but I have reasons to wait before switching to a new provider.

I tried to upgrade from v1 (1.2.4) to v2 [1.8.4 (2.0 Alpha 4)], but ran into an immediate problem. I’m using WordPress v1.5.2 and Firefox v1.5.0.4.

First, after deactivating v1 and activating v2, I could not find a Bad Behavior admin screen under options. So I could not implement the database search facility. I tried to log out of WP and then log back in to see if the BB admin screen might show up, but after logging out I was not able to log in again. I got the screen that people with a virus might get.

I had to use IE instead of Firefox and then I was able to log in. But I never use IE for blogging or much of anything else.

That really needs some clarification. What are you running your site on? Why is a 17 MB table a problem? That’s quite small, as these things go.

I had to deactivate BB2 alpha 4 because its 47 MB log table was not sustainable for my site.

Looking forward to the final release.

@Michael : does it learn as time goes? is it bayesian based ?

I have just had it on for a two days now (Earlier I used to use BB 1.x, but I had problems with false positives with 1.x)
