Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted November 16, 20231 yr howdy folks, we got a spam wave rolling in this morning despite 1) the requirement to register by email 2) the requirement to accept guidelines and the privacy policy and 3) having the "invisible" captcha option on. I switched to the second captcha level, but that didn't stop the wave entirely. So in addition to the above, I've now added the requirement for moderator approval for the first post. That seems to have worked. Just a heads up.
November 16, 20231 yr question and answers would also be a good thing to have switched on, and hCaptcha appears to be more reliable in stopping things.
November 16, 20231 yr Author Marc, hello. Thanks for the suggestions. Where do I find the "CMS"? I have to specify that for keyCaptcha. Also, would you use Q&A in addition or instead of the above? I guess you're going to say "choose what works best for you" 🙂 but is there something else I should know? Remember, I'm an amateur. Edited November 16, 20231 yr by I_cant_Swim_ sp
