I see that @Chris is here regularly manning the support desk but no sign in quite a while of Robert, Sofy, Alvina or Martin. The last post from Robert indicated that there were some challenges from Covid and "the war"?

In the meantime here, at gvectors' and gconvertors own forums is being overrun by spam profiles, seems like the support forums are slowly being  abandoned or at least not properly moderated. Gconvertors don't reply to migration enquiries and no further word on WPforo V2.....

Are the abovementioned challenges still in play?

Hi @verek,

All stuff work on wpForo 2.0 development. Only two persons are supporting at the moment. I don't know why are you mentioning Gconvertors. We don't have any relation to Gconvertors. Our theme is the gVectors and we only responsive for gVectors Team products. gVectors Team has two popular plugins and both are under active development and support:

 

There is no major persistence spam in our forums, we always keep cleaning them. If you see some of them it doesn't mean the plugins are abandoned.

All staff work on wpForo 2.0 development.

Very pleased to hear that you and the staff are okay now.

My mistake, I see now that Wyoming is really just one of those states with convenient, privacy focused business registration services, similar to Delaware....

I did not imply such, the normally very active staff have been MIA for some time and I wondered if you guys were okay considering your last post.

There is no major persistence spam in our forums, we always keep cleaning them.

But there is a major persistence of profile spam. Examples:

October 2021: https://wpforo.com/community/profile/linahaniva/ & https://wpforo.com/community/profile/crackqpjpxxi160/

February 2022: https://wpforo.com/community/profile/crackqpjpxxi160/ and https://wpforo.com/community/profile/vulcan40149680/

There are probably hundreds more.

@verek,

Ok, thank you for pointing to spam profiles. We'll keep clear them and try to find some general solution for all forums.

@robert There is a very easy/simple (and TESTED with an other script) solution for it: The user must be a member for a specific time (configurable) or/and the user must have a minimum of posts (also configurable) to create/modify the profile.

Also a third option could be also to email the admin if someone modified his profile.
