It works on 3.8.3

Please add a function to search for denied registrations. I frequently get help requests from people who want to register, but are denied because they are in the SFS listing. I need to find out why they where blocked and explain this to them. i.e. Is the IP or email is listed as spammer in the SFS database? I have 63k entries in the database, so scrolling is not very effective.

Better yet, would be if blocked member would get a more thorough explanation of why they where blocked.

Please add a whitelist.

Why does the log display each registrant multiple times?

Is there a maximum size to the log, when the size becomes a problem?

EDIT: it seems that almost all complaints are caused by AOL IPs.

May be an option. I really don't want bot-users to know why there were not allowed to register.

And how it will be filled?
What whitelist it must be - IP? Email? User name?

Because the bots tries to register several times and can't brake the captcha picture.

There is no logs for them in stopforumspam.com so the pass the mod but can't pass the captcha.

As it is placed in database the maximum size is you hosting size space limited for you database.

Found a BUG in phrases
In MOD's ACP options second and third name of options "IP Check URL" must be "Email Check URL" and "Username Check URL". The options' descriptions are correct.

Ilput my hand up here, Ive been slacking on the code on 0.7. I had another baby and I now spend 6 hours a day travelling to and from work. Leaving home at 6am and arriving back at 8pm is kind of tiring.

Whitelist - already in 0.7

It displays multiple times as the person have posted their registration form multiple times.

More detailed errors / messages about rejection - The code is there is 0.7 but not added to the templates yet.

AOL - couldnt care less about AOL. They file almost all traffic down a very small number of proxy servers. If people dont like "being tarred with the sme brush" tell them to get another ISP that doesnt transparently proxy. There really isnt any way around this other than to whitelist all the AOL proxy servers.

Search the logs. The code is there but I need to add the search forms to the admin interface. If you type 192, it will show the records for any email/username/ip address that contains 192. I could add a referral number so that it gives the user a number that correspondes to a log entry. Would that work?

@Marc666- ohhh, ill fix those.

The log size, unless you run a tiny board, will never be as large as the other tables in the database.

Already done :) Well mostly. the code is there and its working for the User Options advanced display screen but I just need to code the form into the logs code so that it posts the submit data. It allows you to tick boxes or select all / invert and then posts all that data to the remote database

Excellent mod and as others have said, could use a bit more features.

Despite that, I'm loving it and will be tracking its progress in the coming weeks.

Thank you very much for this. :)

+installed / nominated.

Excellent! This is good news because for those log entries, there is no user (they were stopped by Captcha) and therefore no user options to view.

BTW, I'm loving this mod. Thanks very much!

I can relate.. wife is 9 months pregnant with our first... free time the last few months has been non existent.. don't see that changing soon.

That being said, that is the beauty of this mod of yours... set it and forget it :-)

Thanks Pedigree!

Top Mod nice one. It also seems to work on 3.8.3.

Which php extensions are required from your mod to work?

I try with my url for IP test and i didn't recieve any request on it :/

I test with CURL option and without it.

EDIT: I found that i didn't have CURL extension and that was the problem! After instaling it everything is OK!

egexperiment626 07-07-2009 10:51 PM

I installed this mod over the weekend and so far I haven't had one spam registration or post. Worked perfectly from the moment it was installed on 3.8.3!

Thank you!!
