Hi Knaaal,

Could you please explain what  you mean saying " ranking system"?

  1.  Member statistic  
  2. Forum statistic

Thanks for the response i mean it exist the level system Rating 0-10 and this works with forum post but in the Offtopic section we have also a lot of spam and this is the reason because i want that the forum post from this section doesn't count

Hi Knaaal,

I'm sorry but there is no way to do a user specific or forum specific restriction of rating counting. This is a general function for forum.

I recommend do a good configuration of wpForo to stop spammers. wpForo has many option to prevent spam posts.

1. Make sure wpForo Antispam is enabled in Dashboard > Forums > Tools admin page.

2. Enable built-in wpForo reCAPTCHA for all forms on the same admin page.

3. Install Akismet, it's well integrated with wpForo

4. All new registered users posts are going to Unapproved status. people don't see these posts until you set them approved. Make sure you don't approve spammer posts.
