Yes, it would be very nice if this could work. ESPECIALLY if there was a way to whitelist for a period of time only. (ie 7 days)

Thanks.

I catch spammers who register alot - before they post. They arent listed in the database. Its cumbersome to go to stopforumspam and add the entry as wel as manually deleting the user. It would be great if this could be a one click deal like on posts.

Also, it would be nice if we could block by country. I have no use of China members for example - and would just like to block them outright.

add this if you haven't already
add this plugin

Product: vBulletin
Hook Location: useradmin_edit_column1
Title: Submit to StopForumSpam.com
Execution Order: 5
Plugin PHP Code:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

this will allow you to submit them from admincp when viewing users details in admincp

Here is a good website to use. Add the rules to your .htaccess file to block from countries you do not want on your site.

Of course another way to do this is within vB. Settings > Options > User Banning Options
You have the option to use "*" as a wildcard so it will take a little time to do, which is why using the .htaccess is better.

It would be awesome to have a convenient way to submit spam info directly from the vb admin panel to stopforumspam.com

There already is. I've posted this before:

1. You'll need the SFS API key. Replace "1234567890abcd" in last line below with valid API.

2., AdminCP >> Plugins and Products >> Add New Plugin

3. Details for plugin

Product: vBulletin

Hook Location: useradmin_edit_column1 (or useradmin_edit_column2 if you prefer)

Title: Submit to StopForumSpam.com

Execution Order: 5

Plugin PHP Code:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

You can always add this line at the top of plugin "GlowHost - Spam-O-Matic - Stats render":

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

That will make it only visible to Admins.

The logs show

First, thank you for this add-on. In the 7 months since it was added, Glow-Host Spam-o-Matic has blocked ~1,000 spammers.

What concerns me is that for the past several days, spammers with very high reports at StopForumSpam are being passed to registration -- not all but 50+ have been passed through just the past three days. It isn't an issue with StopForumSpam being unavailable, as each as the indication, "Passed StopForumSpam checks. Sent to vBulletin Registration System."

Two examples from today:

• http://www.stopforumspam.com/ipcheck/60.173.10.57 -- 60.173.10.57 appears in our database 3704 times
• http://www.stopforumspam.com/ipcheck/61.191.188.49 -- 61.191.188.49 appears in our database 1058 times

None of them are over the 90-day setting, which we use as recommended. We also use the recommended 30 minute setting for "StopForumSpam: Data Fetching - Cache".

Any suggestions? (Site: Sysnative.com)
