Hi!

Sadly you can'T stop that abuse. You'd need to add captchas to the voting, but then nobody would vote if they had to enter a captcha first.

So you should disable voting, if that is abused on your site.

ok thank you.

insteed of making a new topic im just gona ask here fast, im still trying to translate some plugins to swedish, and im trying to change freetag right now, i made a new file called "lang_se.inc.php" in the UTF folder of the freetag plugin and saved the file with UTF encode. still no change to my page is made when i refreash, i changed @define('PLUGIN_EVENT_FREETAG_LIST' to "@define('PLUGIN_EVENT_FREETAG_LIST', 'Tags för denna artikel: %s');" but when i look at the page it's still saying "Defined tags for this entry:"

why?

The language file should exist in both the plugin folder, and the utf-8 folder (in that format) of the plugin. Clear your broswer cache if necessary, and delete all files from the templates_c folder except the file .empty to see if it helps.

Hi!

What does your complete lang_se.inc.php and UTF-8/lang_se.inc.php file look like?
