Installing Honey Pots

Installing Honeypot

Author: P.Keeble (27 May 09 6:56am)

I've tried to install Honeypot onto my forum, the forum is powered by SMF and my web host supports PHP. I also use Filezilla to put stuff on the site. However I can't quite work out how to actually put Honey pot on. I know I have to unzip the file the install it, but which files do I install?

Do I put on the Extras, Legal Documents and overage PHP? if so, how do I activate it? when I look for the honeypot I can't actually find it, what am I doing wrong?

You only need to upload the php file. After that, just go to it and click the activate link.

Any particular place I should be installing the file?

Put the file anywhere on your server that's accessible via the internet. Once you link to it, you'll probably catch a few spambots in the first week.
