• settings.py needs to be modified - I've done this for staging in [master c44102d]
• the playbook needs to be updated to include stopforumspam once it's available in EL6. I've filed a package change request and installed it manually on staging for the time being.
• the playbook needs to be updated to include a cron job to updated the ip lists

I don't know why I've written "nfs playbook" everywhere.

Does it all seem to work in staging?

Is there some way to test it/tell that it's working there?

I'm not really sure. I haven't had any denials yet. I've modified settings.py to set the logging level to debug, but I haven't caught any check messages in the logs yet. I think it only logs when it catches spam, not general debug messages, which makes it tougher to see if it's working.

I've tried to include my IP in this setting and check: https://github.com/benjaoming/django-stopforumspam/blob/master/stopforumspam/settings.py#L17 It hasn't done anything yet. I think I'll have to contact upstream to ask what "FORCE_ALL_REQUESTS" is supposed to do (https://github.com/benjaoming/django-stopforumspam/blob/master/stopforumspam/settings.py#L23). The comment says it's for testing.

I've done this by modifying the settings.py file. I don't know if it'll be any different from the django admin interface. Maybe it's worth a look? I don't think I have access to the web admin interface.

We also need to check if the code addition for the proxy thing actually works :)

This doesn't seem to work and we are using the new moderation features in 0.7.51, so I am going to close this out now. Re-open if there's something more to be done.
