how to disable the automatic spam protection J1.5RC

[wujian]

Hello, everybody!
I tried to put a a link to Paypal verification like this,
https://www.paypal.com/us/verified/pal= ... domain.com
so that visitors can click on it and see my verified status from paypal.
But I just get the following test results if I click on the frontend,

' ); document.write( addy52259 ); document.write( '' ); //-->/n ' ); //--> This e-mail address is being protected from spambots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it ' ); //--> is NOT PayPal Verified

It seems that what I really need is a simple link that will work in the address bar of IE. And the Joomla automatically encrypt the email address to prevent attack from spam bots.
This is also true when I tried to put a MSN messenger link like,

msnim:chat?contact=[email protected]

What I wonder is that in the stable version of Joomla it works fine. Because the new one has got strong spam protection?
I think this is to be fixed if someone can because there are really some people who need a simple link which may includes his/her email address as a part of the link.

I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IF SOMEONE CAN HELP!  :P

You will need the mambot MosSnippet.  You can download it free from the extensions area.

Then add your code into the mambot and that should solve your problem.

SORRY  to post in the 1.0 section! Just realized soon after!

Thanks Donman, Now solved like this,
With your editor turned OFF! - WHENEVER YOU EDIT THIS ARTICLE!
ALWAYS REPLACE  "@" IN YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS "[email protected]" with "@"
it becomes "[email protected]" and then joomla won't encode the email address anymore.

Got it from others' posts. I believe some might also have the same questions in future, so leave this message.

You can also disable the Plugin Content - Email Cloaking in the Plugin Manager.

Thanks!

Is it normal that the built-in email cloaking doesn't work when you display an email address through the contacts component? I'd think it's most needed there, or am I overlooking something obvious here?

thanks in advance!

Actually there is an easy way to do this without disabling the Cloaking plugin.

Make sure your 'load module positions' plugin is enabled. Then enter:

Code: Select all

{emailcloak=off}

Just before the e-mail address you wish to enable in your article.

Do not use an WYSIWYG Editor.

Use 'No Editor'.

Create yourself a User as a Publisher or higher and then make No Editor the default editor for that User.

This way your code insertions will not get messed up by the WYSIWYG editors.

You will also be able to insert iFrames, (the normal way), in fact anything into Joomla without the WYSIWYG editors messing with the code.

This way you do not put your site at risk generally from harvesters.

One can use an editor
If email cloak is published, the code

Code: Select all

{emailcloak=off}

will not be displayed and indeed the following mail address will not be cloaked.

Good to know:
I tried to use it with the TinyMCE over a year ago and couldn't get it to work.

Mind you I gave up using WYSIWYG editors about the same time.
Couldn't get anything done.

This still works in Joomla 3.3

This still works in Joomla 3.3

Code: Select all

{emailcloak=off} 

will work in any version of Joomla when loadmodule is enabled in plugins.
loadmodule has so many uses it would seem an endless list if I were to start giving examples.
