Is there any way it look at the users IP? And to Ban them by IP? I have been getting the same guy creating lots of accounts and spamming then I ban him delet the post one at a time and he comes back with more the next day? Some kind of IP control and or blocking would be nice.
I just opend the site I can see a huge problem with this if it ever starts getting more hits than just the one spammer..

You must log in to post replies.the anti-spammer plugin
Thank You ill give it a try! I did search for several terms like IP, Block, Ban and other terms and this never came in the results.
I had that installed but disabled it because it didn't seem to do anything. I re-enabled it on all my sites..
But I would like to find some way to View the User IP I have several local sites like casscounty.us and would like to view users IPs so if they spam I can Block the IPS or a whole IP Block on my server.
Also some way to Manage the Ban/Block I have ban my own IP by accident more than once!!

It works,doesn't stop 100% but it does stop 90%,you do have to add the api key.
@DhrupDeScoop The long way around :)
@iionly thats what I was looking for. Thank you :)
@patriot I am very interested in this plugin so I will research the Api Key Thanks for getting my intrest going on this one again.
LOLZ ;-P -- How can a one line command to grep and pipe thru sed be a "long" way around ?
@DhrupDeScoop Thats a Long story. :)
@patriot If figured out the anti-spammer plugin. I was working with the wrong plugin :( Once I figuerd that out got the right one working :)
@DhrupDeScoop Maybe you are starting to figure it out? Short N Sweet I would have to learn what [grep and pipe thru sed] is.
@patriot Had a friend come over to sign up with my Wire less Laptop and they where blocked as a spammer!
the anti-spammer plugin is out :(
