Teddy Rogers Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Is there any way of checking against a database of disposable email addresses and stopping people registering if its on that list? At the moment I check manually and add any disposable email addresses I find to the ban filter. I am hoping there is an easier automated way... Ted.

I once found a system that did this with an API, unfortunatly the project was dead. If you see one around let me know, because I would like this also.
Teddy Rogers Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 I don't know of any project that does this at least not in the same aspect as Honey Pot and similar services. All I have seen are lists to import in to the ban filter but these often lists become outdated rather quickly. Maybe another member here knows something more which could be useful? Ted.
AlexJ Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 Does your mod checks user register through Google Authentication? Thanks!
Tsvi Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 A really great hook, thanks! Just started being attack by spam bots and this hook make thing lot better ;) BTW, maybe if you could for the next version of this hook (if there be any) to make a list of reports... I mean, instead that it'll report the full details of the spammers to your email address, so it'll show you a detailed list of those spammers in the ACP. And of course adding a button that will clean that list. Just an idea. :)
simonb Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 Does this hook allow reporting of spammers to Stop Forum Spam? Thank you.
AlexJ Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Does this hook allow reporting of spammers to Stop Forum Spam? Thank you. No, I don't think so.
simonb Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 Hi, I looked at the pics prior to downloading and it shows the 'Enable report to SFS Link' but in my version for board 3.3 it is missing? Please could this be added as it is good to be able to report spammers.
Cretster Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Thanks for this hook - it's a great help but I've run into an error message with it today when a new member was trying to register and getting an error. They got all their details completed on the registration form and submitted it, then received this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined method hanEmail::setHtmlEmail() in /home/forumtablename/public_html/forums/hooks/cstopspamreg_65d4bb562406990a231ad7c6dbc7e5cf.php on line 99 Have changed the table name in there. I've tried using their same details to set the same account up and I get this error too. I've manually added their account to get round it, but if anyone can help explain what I need to do to prevent this from occurring I'd be really grateful. Many thanks.
Cascadia Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Im getting this type of error since installing the hook the other day and it is very similar to the one reported in the above post. What is causing it because I have stopped over 100 spammers in the last 48 hours. Strict Standards: Declaration of sfsLinkIp::buildMessage() should be compatible with that of hanEmail::buildMessage() in /home/XXXXXXXXXX/hooks/sfsLinkIp_a627ff0c8e2e6ce39d440f24e5806a25.php on line 39 I changed my account to the XXXXXXXXXX in that line of code for security reasons. I am using version 3.3.4 of the forum software. This error is occurring during submitting posts and sometimes with PM's as well. It doesnt happen always but at about 80% of the time. I need to get this fixed asap!! The above image shows a screenshot of the full extent of the error sent to me from one of my members. Thanks Ray

Thanks Ray if memory serves..the error "sfsLinkIp" is from a hook clash .. check your hooks I know I had this issue, and resolved it .. it ended up being a hook, though I don't remember what the hook was..but I do remember it being out of date and not compatible (though I don't believe it was flagged as such) .. and I believe I remember it not even being associated with this application, but another one doing the same functionality .. so I would start there
Cyrem Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Are using this hook: http://community.inv...ip#entry2189843 ? That hook is not compatible with 3.3. Because that hook extends into sfsLinkIP, whereas my hook only extends into new registrations. Cretster, yours looks like a different issue. I'll have a look at it.
Cascadia Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I disabled this hook ([Mod-Mall] Stop Forum Spam link in New Reg Email v1.0) and it seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks!!
MGBrose Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Just to chime in with an update: 24,532 Spammers Stopped. I guess its time to disable the notifications emails LOL!!!!
Van2 Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 just did a fresh install of this mod, using IPB 3.3.4 and on statics i am getting Spammers Blocked showing twice
Cyrem Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 just did a fresh install of this mod, using IPB 3.3.4 and on statics i am getting Spammers Blocked showing twice What are some other hooks you have installed?
Van2 Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 What are some other hooks you have installed? I have to many to count, Are there hooks that cause this problem?
Van2 Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Special thanks to Cyren for helping me fix this problem
Cyrem Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Special thanks to Cyren for helping me fix this problem No problem, although you did most of the work :tongue:. To anyone that has a double-up issue for the statistic, disable and re-enable any other hooks that modify the board statistics... this should fix the display(I hope). To other people who would like to know, yes there is a new version coming out soon and will continue to work with IP.Board 3.1 - 3.4. Support for the older boards is still going to be kept.
stoo2000 Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 It might be nice to extend this hook to check when Guests submit Tickets in Nexus, spammers are hitting this avenue quite a lot too.
Zyuu Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Best addon/hook ever! Should come default with IP.Board.
JarredB Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 It might be nice to extend this hook to check when Guests submit Tickets in Nexus, spammers are hitting this avenue quite a lot too. Thank-you for the suggestion. Best addon/hook ever! Cheers! How can I register to get API code? StopForumSpam does not require an API Key. If you mean Project Honey Pot, you will need to register, then request an API key. Once registered I believe you go to this page: http://projecthoneypot.com/httpbl_configure.php
sallam Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 Oh my God!! your hook is working wonder in my 3.3.4 forum. 11 spammers blocked in the first 40 minutes from installation! My forum has been under a spam attack lately, and your hook will allow me to get my life back! I can now allow new registrations without admin approval. Thank you sooooooooooo! much!
h-y-b-r-i-d Posted November 22, 2012 Posted November 22, 2012 Great mod, I have managed to disable both recaptcha and question / answer which makes less hoops for real members to jump through, excellent. One issue, in order to get a linkback from the stopforumspam website you need to use the api, any way to integrate this? Thanks, Dave.
