Features planned for future releases:

Installation

  • You can install this plugin through the "Admin Area > Plugin Manager > Find Plugins" section.
  • You can also download this plugin manually by checking out the releases page.

Note for e107 v1 users

  • e107 v1.0.4 (or lower) is no longer supported. It is strongly recommended to update to e107 v2.
  • In case you wish to use this plugin on your e107 v1 installation, please use version 1.0.0 of this plugin. Any newer version of this plugin will only work on e107 v2.

Configuration

In the admin area there are two preferences that can be set for this plugin:

  1. StopForumSpam Active: determines whether new signups are checked against the stopforumspam.com database (default is 'on')
  2. SFS Debug Mode: when enabled, all user signups are logged in the logfile. By default, only the registations which are found in the stopforumspam.com database are logged. (default is 'off')

The log file is located in your logs folder (by default 'e107_system/(hash)/logs')

sfs's Issues

Error 500 on signup

When the SFS plugin is enabled users cannot register on my site...

They can fillout the signup page, but when they submit, the site ends up in an 500, Internal server error...

I've looked into my apache error logs, but I can't find anything...

PHP Fatal error

Installed the plugin and of course I decided to try the signup myself, got the following error after I finished the registration process:

[16-Mar-2013 04:44:58] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'String could not be parsed as XML' in /home/xxx/public_html/e107_root/extras/sfs/e_module.php:61

Floryn/MysterF,

Stop Forum Spam - Malfunction

Hello,I installed this plugin (as mentioned in the title above) on the site. And it actually worked. We had no spammers registering.But so I thought it worked...Apparently no one can sign up any more at my site. Users who sign up (tried it myself too) get to see this:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'String could not be parsed as XML' in /home/xxx/public_html/e107_plugins/sfs/e_module.php:66 Stack trace: #0 /home/xxx/public_html/e107_plugins/sfs/e_module.php(66): SimpleXMLElement->__construct('##SANITISED##>??<...') #1 /home/contr914/public_html/e107_handlers/event_class.php(121): sfsCheck(Array) #2 /home/xxx/public_html/signup.php(361): e107_event->trigger('usersup_veri', Array) #3 {main} thrown in /home/xxx/public_html/e107_plugins/sfs/e_module.php on line 66

Anyone can help me with this?

Check existing users

Isn't it a good idea to add a small feature to check our user DB for existing spammers?

It could be handy for those who install it for the first time, or to run every once and a while to check if some spammers still got thorugh (which were reported to SFS after they've registerd on our sites already)...
