Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
December 5, 20222 yr Hi @Nathan Explosion, I found this issue elsewhere in the AdminCP so I think this a bug in the actual ACP's responsive layout. I found it in Advanced Configuration > Friendly URLs which also uses a table layout and as you can see the content overflows the container and there is no way to access it or anything beyond it... Also in Stat Reports Downloads when switching to table view. Edited December 5, 20222 yr by The Old Man

If you believe you have found an IPS bug in their own implementation, please report it to them.
December 5, 20222 yr Author Just now, The Old Man said: Just trying to save your time. I appreciate that - but there is a reason mine exhibits the behaviour, and I will be resolving it going forward. I just want to disassociate the application from any report you may make about an invision bug, as it isn't a bug for me.
December 6, 20222 yr Author v1.8.1 is currently pending approval CHANGES The tracker has been modified to reduce the number of columns relating to checks/results, and consolidates information about an entry into a single 'Report' column. (see screenshot) The report column is truncated to 3 lines, by default, and the truncation and number of lines can be changed via the 'Tracker settings' button now available. Moved the 'Prune logs' option from main settings to the new 'Tracker settings'.
December 9, 20222 yr I am getting this the minute my site is on 4.7... can't stand the ton of spam I am getting from the contact us!
December 22, 20222 yr Hi, Installed it yesterday, but i don't see how i can manually block one sender e-mail adress, did i miss something ?

Once you've done that then the application can be used to: Edited December 22, 20222 yr by Nathan Explosion
January 3, 20232 yr Back on this matter, i don't know if this would be easy to implement but it would be nice to add buttons in the tracker to add the mail address and/or the IP adress to the ban list
January 3, 20232 yr Author For that to be considered and looked at, unfortunately you're going to need to provide a bit more than "it would be nice" I would need to understand the benefit to you, and what email addresses/IP addresses you are talking about (if they are in the tracker then the application has done its job as configured - why does adding that information to the ban filters add value?)
January 3, 20232 yr Sorry if i wasn't clear about this request 🙂 I did enable the tracking of valid e-mails, what i would like basically is a "ban" button in the tracker that would add the e-mail adress to Invision non registrable adresses, so it wouldn't be able to use the contact us form. This way could block a spammer with a single clic instead of copying the adress, going to the ban settings, clicking on "add ban filter", switching the filter type, pasting the adress and clicking OK.. For instance(note that for instance i did ban manually tractorrmail@gmail.com) :
January 4, 20232 yr Author v2.0.0 is currently pending approval... NEW Added functionality in Tracker to allow quick addition of email and/or IP addresses to your site's ban setting. Available only if using the check against "Non-Registrable Email Addresses" the tracked entry has been tracked as a 'Valid' email the email and IP address are definitely not already banned (someone manually adding them since the email was tracked) Added functionality to allow deletion of entries in the Tracker, either individual entries, all entries or specific email or IP addresses The 'ban' button: Confirmation of what to ban: Tada!!
January 20, 20232 yr Author v2.1.0 has been submitted for approval NEW Added the ability to check the submission against akismet.com The following will be submitted: sender's name sender's email address sender's ip address sender's browser user-agent string the content submitted by the sender If you wish to test this out, use viagra-test-123 and/or akismet-guaranteed-spam@example.com as the sender's name and/or email address respectively. CHANGES Language strings relating to the privacy policy have been updated to reflect the previous application name change
January 20, 20232 yr Great job Nathan, thanks for the updates. Would be great to be able to contribute by reporting these numpties in some way to the various block lists, I know it’s not allowed to do via IPS Spam directly.
March 3, 20231 yr Perhaps I don't understand how this works completely. I just received a message through the Contact Us form that originated from the IP address 5.62.59.1. This address is listed in Stop Forum Spam 80 times. With these settings, shouldn't this have been clocked?

You have the confidence level for IP address checking set to 90% - anything equal to or above that will be 'clocked' Click the below to see the current confidence level for that IP address: https://api.stopforumspam.org/api?ip=5.62.59.1&json

Thank you! This app has saved me so many headaches it's amazing.
March 27, 20231 yr Author v2.2.0 is currently pending approval NEW Added a new setting to the 'Email validation' functionality which will allow suppression of the requirement for a validation code if a Guest has previously validated their email address within the last x amount of time (X is set to 0 at the time of installation, requiring a validation code each time) Added support for Adriano Faria's "Contact Us" application Submissions made using that application will now be checked against the services configured in this application The 'Email validation' functionality is also available for Guest submissions.
March 28, 20231 yr Always nice to see this app improve. Maybe a search facility would be handy in the tracker log. Also a manual report button for repeat offenders next to an entry if no automated reporting on the cards, but I wouldn’t want it to get bloated. On v2.1.0, in the tracker page, it looks like the sort by name column doesn’t work correctly. Maybe a bug or two: Sort by name opposite way, after loader icon disappears, list is in same order: I also have about 28 pages and I noticed when I sorted by IP, only the first 5 pages have an ip address included. 🙂
