I'm getting messages from users saying the site is down for Firefox, and I'm using Safari and can't access my admin page at all. I haven't yet updated to the latest version but I'm on the most recent version prior to that. Anyone else experiencing this? 

Seems to work on Safari if I got into the Private Browser mode. No idea why.

You didnt mention if you increased hCAPTCHAs sensitivity to spammers. Did you also do this?

Also ensure you have your mark as spam settings set to report back to us. This will help us to then prevent spam.

I don't see where I'm able to increase the sensitivity in my admin view (not saying it doesn't exist, just can't find it); would you mind pointing me in the right direction? Or is that something managed directly on the hCPATCHA site? 

And confirmed, I've got the 'Send reports back' activated.

I'm noticing a decent amount of these spammers using the same email domain. Am I understanding correctly that I could manually ban certain ones using this feature?

Utilizing the wildcard, would I just type in something like ***@eurokool.com and that would prevent anyone using '@eurokool' from registering?

hCaptcha is actually the most effective, rather than keyCaptcha. Especially if put in the higher settings.

Looking at your system, you dont have all methods switched on at present. You should add some question and answer items. Ensuring you add questions which your potential members would answer easily, but would not be answered easily by a bot. For example, if you put something like "What is 2+2" its likely a bot will breeze through that. Add a few of these.

 

 

 

Hi Marc,

Thanks for the reply. I've updated to hCaptcha and am thinking on what question/answer to go with. For now, I'm having to manually review all new member requests (still getting registrations even with the hCaptcha). 

Any idea why practically every one of the spam bots came through with a Spam Defense of 1? Seems like I can't really rely on that feature at all, which is disappointing. Unless I'm missing something.

One additional question... if I delete the spam accounts, does the IP ban still exist, or could all these bots come back? I hate that my websites membership # is inflated with all these bots and would prefer to delete the accounts outright.

Get a CleanTalk subscription and the plug-in from the marketplace. Best $8 a year you'll spend.

Thanks for the recommendation! Looking into this now 

My site is currently being hit with a deluge of spam, despite the fact I use keyCAPTCHA and have all the Spam Defense turned on. All the spammers are passing with a Spam Score of 1. Anyone else having a similar issue?

Edit:

The patch was available, but not applied!

 

I'll just finish this step for you:) 

Thank you!!

Hi Matt, 

I think the patch is now live on my site but I'm still seeing locked for my Classifieds application:

Just to note, this is a third party author, not ourselves.

That name seems unbelievably deceptive then. 

My websites 'Classifieds' is totally down, despite buying the one made by 'InvisionHQ'. Why wouldn't there be an immediate compatibility with the latest PHP update if this Classified system is run by Invision itself? 

I am seeing this issue as well, when members try and log in they get that error. The user sees error code EX0. 

Here's the code from the system log:

Error: Property access is not allowed yet (0)
#0 /var/www/html/107016/applications/core/modules/front/members/profile.php(253): IPS\Content\Search\Mysql\_Query->search()

Hello,

On my Classifieds page, I am not able to show more than 4 sub categories within a parent before getting the 'Show all categories'. I've seen other peoples classifieds where the block on the right side extends as far down as they wish, with all sub categories under a parent showing. Is there a setting I'm missing that enables this? 

Thanks in advance. 

I have the 'Creator' level package for my website and it says there is 500GB of media storage available. Wondering where do I go in my admin view to see how much media storage has already been used? Also is there any way to purchase additional media storage a la carte? 

Just started up a new forum and want to have posts be featured without me having to manually do it from the 'Moderation Action' dropdown. Is there a setting that would allow me to have a post hit featured status based off metric(s)?
