Hi In the past 2 days I got 1000+ notifications from the community site saying "a new article was submitted..." Log in and check http://tiki.org/tiki-list_submissions.php , it is full of spam stuff. Seems like this feature needs some extra protection, any idea how to improve this? thanks, gezza |

I'm not sure if I can find the IP address of the spammer to block him, without access to the logs. He used several user logins, making new ones as I deleted them, so I temporarily de-activated the submit-article permission for the registered group at tiki.org, which I assume the spammer needs if the articles are being submitted the normal way. I'm still getting some notifications too (the last of them, I hope), but no new submissions are being listed at the site. -- Gary On 26/11/2011 19:05, gezza nagy wrote: > Hi > > In the past 2 days I got 1000+ notifications from the community site > saying "a new article was submitted..." > > Log in and check http://tiki.org/tiki-list_submissions.php , it is > full of spam stuff. > > Seems like this feature needs some extra protection, any idea how to > improve this? > > thanks, > gezza > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure > contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, > security threats, fraudulent activity, and more.

Hmm, I'm still getting notifications. Either there is some latency in the notifications or else they are being sent without articles actually being submitted (no new article submissions are appearing at tiki.org). -- Gary On 26/11/2011 21:04, Gary Cunningham-Lee wrote: > I'm not sure if I can find the IP address of the spammer to block him, > without access to the logs.
