I'll definitely give this addon a try. Almost anything that sends a forum arzehole to hell is appreaciated.

Trust me, forum trolls and fake user are a plague. ;)

hello. is it bug-free? or a beta?

Somewhat, yes. But you have to trick it. For the Login Detection, it will always just notify you - no user will be moved to any Usergroup or anything like that. To trick the Registration Prevention from preventing an account, turn off the Reban option, and set an incorrect Usergroup ID for the Prevention Usergroup (i.e. an ID to a Usergroup that does not exist). This will still allow the modification to report each incident to you, and it will let you know that the Prevention Usergroup is set incorrectly, so the multiple registrant will not be prevented. I may add an option for this later, but since it has this workaround, this will be at a lower priority.

I'll be happy to add in a feature if I can, but I do not understand what you are trying to ask me. Could you please reword your request?

I know... Trust me, I know. :)

Yes, it is bug-free. The latest version (1.0.1) is stable and there are no known issues, and it should work flawlessly.

a German translation, there is not it? :(

The file in the root "Madp" copy? OKEY, you must also create htaccess?

On my site, I have a few members who live in the same address. If they both take turns on their pc, this will detect them & ban them?

Is there a way to stop that from happening. If not, this could be a bad idea for some boards.

Kiros72, please help me.

I'm sorry, but I do not know German. =[

Upload the folder called /madp/ to your forum directory (like /forums/madp/). Import the product file (product-kiros_madp.xml), and then configure the options. There is no need (no reason) to create a .htaccess file.

When they login, nothing will be done except a detection report. A user will not be affected unless he/she is registering - in which case, the registrant will be moved to the Prevention Usergroup or rebanned if a previous account is found to be banned. Again, the Login Detection will not prevent a user from logging in nor will it ban anyone; it will just notify you through PM/thread depending on your settings.

If you do not want to receive the notifications for those users who use the same computer, then add one of their User ID numbers to the Ignored Users and enable Ignore Child Accounts. With Ignore Child Accounts enabled, as long as a user is seen as a multiple of an ignored user (or Usergroup), the user will be ignored from any kind of detection.

Would that solve your problem? :)

Hello Kiros72.

1st I should therefore have the files directly into the root copy, but the whole folder named "madp"? ok what I understood.

2nd why no htaccess file? dan but everyone can access it or I see this wrong? I do not want a door for a hacker up. do you?

1: Your forum root folder is the root that I'm talking about. If your forums are located at www.example.com/forums/, then the forum root is the /forums/ directory. You must upload all of the contents (files and folders) of the 'upload' folder into your forum root.

2: All files in a default vBulletin installation are publicly accessible. There's no reason to make the files private as long as there is no room for an exploit. Since these files contain the plugin code and nothing more, it would not do anyone any good to try to access these files. Therefore, no .htaccess is needed.
