Here's the full-featured vbStopForumSpam mod listed for 3.8. It checks for the usernames, the email addresses and the IP addresses of known spammers, AND has a logfile, AND has a report-back feature in the AdminCP for tagging NEW spammers back to the StopForumSpam.com database so that OTHER boards don't get plagued.

You can manually embed the information into a URL page request to the StopForumSpam.com website, but certainly having it done automatically from within VB would be great. Maybe pedigree could design it ...

Here's how to structure the URLs.

Email address:
http://www.stopforumspam.com/api?email=me@domain.net

IP address:
http://www.stopforumspam.com/api?ip=255.255.255.255

Username:
http://www.stopforumspam.com/api?username=UserName123

or combined into one call

Will try it now and let you know how it peforms!thanks

Thanks for this, I love the way others have hijacked your modification thread hawking their mod. gees

I'm having this error, could you please fix it? It still registers the user, but it says this,

" vBulletin Message
Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File: /home/realshi1/public_html/includes/class_core.php
Line: 3314"

Could you please fix it?

I hope this can be fixed...

This is brilliant. Thanks a lot.

thanks

I'm using vBulletin 3.8.6.
On the vbStopForumSpam post it says "reported to work with.... 3.8.4" - no 3.8.6 on the list in January 2011 and most importantly: it's still in beta stage. You guys should not post "I did this over a year ago" and link to a beta version IMHO.
