RE: Allow users to turn off mention notifications   20 Relevance 6 years ago Anonymous20 General Discussions
  Spam ? It is not Spam. Please do not confuse Spam with notifications. Mention is a good feature if the users do not abuse it. But usually webmasters do not educate their community, so it is abused. Still not Spam. A registered user can't consider any email resulting from their registration as Spam. Also it is practical. For example, myself, i would like to know if and when somebody mentions my name for something. Otherwise how should i know and possibly reply or react ? Anyways, this is my view of things.
Translation and some suggestions   20 Relevance 7 years ago Olena General Discussions
  ... an independent forum software phpBB, but have had to change it by other forum because it uses old version of php and Google Console says that there are too small fonts on mobile devises (I hope it won’t say the same because of wpForo fonts). And when I’ve installed wpForo and have been setting it (it wasn’t in menu already, there were phpBB, so nobody cold know it’s exist), some users have registred in it and some of them have published Spam. So evidently they were robots, not people. I had many Spam abuse in my phpBB forum in other website before, but ther ...
How to deal with hidden text?   20 Relevance 7 years ago Moderworks General Discussions
  When you add a message through the editor TinyMCE unscrupulous users have the opportunity to add a hidden text, which is difficult to see the moderator. How to deal with it? Example: <p><span style="color: #ffffff;">Hidden Spam text. Hidden Spam text. Hidden Spam text.</span></p> Example: Hidden Spam text. Hidden Spam text. Hidden Spam text. Under the background color One more question.
RE: Moderation of new members   20 Relevance 7 years ago Sofy How-to and Troubleshooting
  Hi @central4allgmail-com, The value of the "User is New (under hard Spam control) during" option doesn't mean that all post should be moderated. In your case, value 2. It only means that the first 2 posts will be under Spam scanning. If the Spam Control doesn't suspect them as Spam the new topic will be set as public. But if it suspects one of the first posts as Spam, even the second post, it'll search for all topics and posts and set those as Spam as well.
RE: Approve all Topics   20 Relevance 7 years ago Sofy How-to and Troubleshooting
  ... Spam suspicion level can be increased in Dashboard > Forums > Tools > Antispam admin page to something like this: Spam Suspicion Level for Topics: 45 Spam Suspicion Level for Posts: 45 Also if the topic (first post) is unapproved, all posts of this topic become automatically unapproved (post author doesn't matter). Because you can't see a post if the topic is unapproved. You can approve new topic and posts in Dashboard > Forums > Moderation admin page. This works like WP native comment approving the process. If wpForo suspects some ...
RE: Why registered user posts have to approve every time?   20 Relevance 8 years ago Robert How-to and Troubleshooting
  Only Spam suspected topics and replies become unapproved, and only new registered users topic and posts are under Spam control. You can set New Registered user level 0 in Dashboard > Forums > Tools > Antispam admin page. And not all just registered users topics and posts become Unapproved. Spam suspicion level can be decreased in Dashboard > Forums > Tools > Antispam admin page to something like this: Spam Suspicion Level for Topics: 10 Spam Suspicion Level for Posts: 10 If you don't want to have this feature, just disable wpForo ...
RE: Spam registrations wpforo   20 Relevance 4 years ago dimalifragis How-to and Troubleshooting
  Hello. What kind of Spam are we talking about? Posts in the Forums? Spam Profiles? Your forums are somehow hidden, so we can't check. * Oh, i see we already talked abut it here:
RE: Suggestion on how to eliminate/limit Profiles SPAM   19 Relevance 4 years ago thedailyhoosier General Discussions
  Did this addition get made? I don't see it and think it would be very valuable in controlling human Spam signups looking for backlinks in their Profiles. Thanks.
RE: Suggestion on how to eliminate/limit Profiles SPAM   19 Relevance 4 years ago dimalifragis General Discussions
  @chris What all that have to do with Profiles Spam? Sorry but there is no option right now in wpForo for what i posted above. As for reCaptcha, most people reporting here have that activated, probably not enough. Also reCaptcha is actually a torture for users.
RE: How Do I Stop Spam Profiles?   19 Relevance 5 years ago dimalifragis How-to and Troubleshooting
  It is unlikely this issue to consume your bandwidth, still check those topics for a solution: You better stop this with some Wordpress login/security protection plugin, since wpForo doesn't control login/registations. It is Wordpress that does. For me, this should be blocked BEFORE the fake user registers/logins. After he registers, it is so much work to clear those out.
RE: spam in profiles - stop links   19 Relevance 5 years ago JasonToth How-to and Troubleshooting
  Yes, I am in the same boat. What about on the registration page where it can send an email that you have to confirm before it creates an account? Any idea on if that would solve it as I am thinking that some of the Spam Profiles are not real email addresses.
RE: spam in profiles - stop links   19 Relevance 5 years ago kraisor How-to and Troubleshooting
  I have this same issue, about 10-20 Spam Profiles created per day. I have captcha on the registration and login pages, honeypots, Cloudflare is set to high security for those pages, I'm running All In One WP Security & Firewall, nothing is stopping it. The only thing I can think of that might help me at this point is a custom question on the registration page, which there doesn't seem to be a way to implement with custom work.
RE: spam in profiles - stop links   19 Relevance 5 years ago dimalifragis How-to and Troubleshooting
  Previously i suggested a security plugin for your issue, because some plugins also check IPs against a database (cloud) and deny access. And because Spammers (bots or human) are from KNOWN Ips, they will be blocked. Spam and Profiles are imho best to be blocked/prevented at login/registration and not AFTER.
