Pagerank in admin panel

[spin]

While validating links in the admin panel, is their a mod that will allow the pagerank of link to be viewed?

None yet, I don't think anyone has found a use/need for something like that yet. For most directories page rank is useless anyways.

Thanks for the reply. Not for me it isn't. I have found most spam links coming from sites with no page rank. Most not all. On one of my directories I use this option to quickly weed out spammers. thus on that directory you must have a PR 2 to be excepted. Just helps me run several directories without wasting any more time than needed. That's all. I get so many auto submissions and 50 percent are in wrong cats. I need all the time saving I can get...If you have any suggestions on this I am all ears for sure....again thanks for the reply

Are they spam submissions or are they mostly misdirected submisions? The following settings can help you reduce spam submissions and misdirected submissions.

Only registered user can add new link (yes)
Enable User Validation (yes)
Require visit category on submission(yes)

In captcha.php you can change the following

$key = GenerateRandomString(4, TRUE);

to

$key = GenerateRandomString(5, TRUE);

to confuse autosubmitters that rely on indexu only using 4 characters.

If you want to go up to 5 characters you need to change the following as well

  // box color
  $image = imagecreatetruecolor(81, 31);
  $back = imagecolorallocate($image, intval(rand(224, 255)), intval(rand(224,255)), intval(rand(224, 255)));
  imagefilledrectangle($image, 0, 0, 81, 31, $back);

to

  // box color
  $image = imagecreatetruecolor(90, 31);
  $back = imagecolorallocate($image, intval(rand(224, 255)), intval(rand(224,255)), intval(rand(224, 255)));
  imagefilledrectangle($image, 0, 0, 90, 31, $back);

Also remember, that some sites just don't have pagerank or they don't have pagerank yet. You can't base all submissions on that factor alone
