Hello Frosticek

is it possible to have the option to select email or/and ip when this option is selected

Enable plugin check if user is bot on stopforumspam.com (database of spam bot's emails & IPs updated every few minutes)

its just i'm getting a lot of false positives as users are using mobile data to reach the site but these ip's are shared and there must be a lot of dodgey users on their network. i have had bother with this myself first hand but the end user won't understand.

i have disabled this option for the time being. i hope that you can add this feature as the stopforumspam has helped ban a lot of spammers


Thanks
Chris

You mean to check by email or check by ip only?

Hey Frosticek

yes that's exactly what i mean

I will take a look on this.

Thanks You

@BabyDunk
You can disable check by IP in index.php removing these lines:
          if($xml->appears == 'yes'){
            $spambot = true;
            $reason = ' > stopforumspam.com > ' . __('IP address', 'spam_solution');
          }

However right now it is not possible to check IP and not email.

Hi Frosticek

so are you saying there is not point in removing that piece of code??

what is stopping the ip or email from being selected individually?

i see stopforumspam's api seem to support it

Thanks
Chris

@BabyDunk
Plugin is made that it will check email in all cases, unless you disable this feature (stopforumspam).
To remove ip control, remove that block of code.

Thanks for clarify that for me
