Dear member , I need serious help against 2 much spamming at my forum . is there any way to not allow new meber to post live link (http ) untill he/she has mininum 10 post? please suggest any mod or codes. thansk
thanks Bohra but its also stopping user to use symbol like (~!@#$%^&*()_- ) how to solve this problem? rest its working fine
One way to do it is moderate all new posts (up to 10 or whatever). Obviously it's a lot more work, but you really don't miss anything this way. You can edit out the links, etc before approving them
I say let the spammers give you content. What I do is I have a "test" board. Whenever someone makes a spam thread, it gets moved to the test board and merged into 1 big already existing spam thread, after that the user gets a ban and whatever content google crawled is reserved. Of course the thread that it's merged into is locked.
Not totally sure abt this part.. But then i would say manually approve threads for new users that is the best way..
hmmmmmmmm moderate all new posts this way i need more moderator and super moderator to do this work anyway thanks for great suggestion
