[Solved]: Banning by IP
« on: September 30, 2009, 02:11:15 am »
I know how to ban some one, but i had to set up my site so no one can register because I am getting a lot of spam bots. And I don't know the ip to ban them to keep them from continuously registering at me site. How do I figure out the IP address so that I can ban them?

Rather than banning by IP, take a look at the capcha and askimet mods/plug-ins. Most of these registrations are bot registrations and the aformentions mods usually stop all of those.

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

...or disable anonymous comments. Or disable comments entirely. To tell you more, you should do as suggested per board rules and post a link to your gallery...
