we have massive spam bot registrations for three days now.I had to close down registration as they got pass reCaptcha v2. I hope GlowHost will help now stopping this mayem

I'm running 4.2.5 and have noticed that this plugin causes users to bypass "awaiting moderation" on registering. I do have a number of other plugins but did test this with all the others disabled. I don't recall this being a problem before so it could be something to do with me having Registered Users as a Newcomer group with limited privileges that only become Approved Users at 10 posts.

However, as the product is still catching spammers and my setup moderates newcomer posts anyway, I will simply keep the product installed and disable user moderation.

Wonderful, thank you thank you so much. lifesaver. My forum was over run with over 75000 spammers, already after being installed it has stopped over 60 spammers registering in 3 minutes.

reinstalled this plugin recently and all new registration are getting this errors:

Call to undefined function SOM_Process() on line 64 in /home/forum/public_html/register.php(347) : eval()'d code
#0 /home/forum/public_html/register.php(347): eval()
#1 {main}

Fatal User Error: Call to undefined function SOM_Process() on line 64 in ..../register.php(347) : eval()'d code in ..../vb/vb.php on line 286

Did you upload the file includes/functions_ghsom.php?

Hello.
This thread its very big, I read some posts, but a question:
Work in vb 4.2.5, but work with php 7.1?
Thanks and regards.

Yes, I have it working on a site running vB 4.2.5/PHP 7.1.14, and I didn't have to make any changes to the code.

Like always, thanks MarkFL!

Hello.
I have a one "little problem" and I don't know if are for this product or not.
After install this product, some days after, I view in my admincp that, I have 5070 messages in moderation queue.
But if I click to view this messages, not appears any message, any message for moderation.
I reconfigured this product, but continue appears this 5070 messages in moderation queue and I don't view where are this messages.
Some iddea, its possible its for this product or need search by other vía?

Thanks and regards.

Solved the "issue", apparently a bad configuration of this product and another that I have (welcome new members with thread creation) and generated some threads not visible, with a query in phpmyadmin I could eliminate them.

I'm a little confused. I see that this is an, upgrade?, too StopForumSpam Is that the same as VBStopForumSPam here. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...=stopforumspam

My Glowhostspamomatic mysql table is huge. Is there a way to trim it?

AdminCP /Statistics & Logs/Glowhost/ Prune.

installed and working with vb 4.2.5 but I have some problems with game plugins when the spam product is active does not work some plugins as I solve?

Hi folks, thread did but I need some help please.

One of my mods last night accidentally spamomatic a long time user.

I'm assuming theres no way to revert them back?

Thanks for any help guys.

I am a little confused. Let me explain.
I have a user that is getting the following message when they try to register on my forum.
“Registration denied, this forum runs and active policy not allowing spammers. Please contact us via the “Contact Us” page link if you believe this is in error.

They do not seem to be a spammer, yet there being blocked by the GlowHost addon.
There IP is 2600:387:a:5::17. If I go to the stopforumspam web site and do a search for that IP and check box the EXACT MATCH, and I get the 190 results for 2600:387:a:5::/64. If I click on EXACT MATCH, why is 2600:387:a:5::/64 showing up?

How can I fix it so this user can register, if I know they are not a spammer?

DO I need both downloads Glow Host and also Change log?

I am trying to stop the fake user registrations, I have blocked 70 IP addresses and ranges but the hackers keep finding more.

I wish You have described it in greater detail. I have .zip archive from 2017 and it contains product-glowhostspamomatic.xml and this needs to be imported in Admin / Plugins & Products / Manage Products / [Add/Import Product]. Thats all, no log. Then configure it in vB admin / Options / GlowHost - Spam-O-Matic , entering protected groups separating by "," and "StopForumSpam: API Key".
