Unclear. It says this is compatible with Elgg Version 1.8 but above under requirements says "Elgg 1.7.x (Tested on 1.7.8 and 1.7.9)."

1) Isn't 1.7.4 the correct version for 1.7.x, not this version?

2) Has been tested with 1.7.15?

Thanks

@Ron: I corrected the plugin´s description.

Thanks Ray J.. But there is still some confusion, which I don't think is your problem, but an elgg.org issue. When I select 1.7.4 version of this plugin, which I expect is the most current and valid version for 1.7.15 elgg, correct???? I get the following message.

"Warning!

The author recommends using a different release of this plugin!

View recommended release (1.8.1)
I understand the potential risks and want this release."

Well, I'm not sure I understand the risk in using your 1.7.4. Is there one?

Just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing and using the right stuff. Thanks. -ron

@Ron: ELGG allows only ONE recommended version. Just ignore the warning and download the latest 1.7 version.

I just noticed that if I search on versions 1.7 of plugins, this version continues to come up under 1.7, which is right, but also wrong. Suggestion -- Maybe you should have two versions. Spam Login Filter 1.7 and Spam Login Filter 1.8, since they are in fact two different plugins, right? I think that is what some other developers do. It would help with any confusion. You could then reference link between them. Just my 2 cents. Thanks for your hard work. -ron

Using plugin 1.7.4 - I don't quite get how this works. I have added various country codes, but spammers in those countries still continue to register. How come they are not blocked? What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

You need a key from fassim.com to enable regional blocking, then make sure everything is set to "yes"

Matt, Ah, thank you. I didn't realize I needed fassim.com. Appreciate it much. -ron

@Ray J: Thanks for this plugin. Working for us nicely. I recommend it to all.

can u update it for 1.8.3 ...

How would you "unblock" an email address?

@Flexx: The e-mail is blocked by stopforumspam service. We can´t unblock a e-mail. A blocked user must contact stopforumspam admins and ask for a unblock. In the next version my plugin will have a threshold to spammers. In a few words, we can block only spammers with X ocorrences in stopforumspam.

Ok ill have to do that cuz i have this email that i was using to test out my site and now its blocked lol, looking forward to the upgrade man! :)

Hi

I wonder if anybody knows what the deal is with fassim.com; I've applied for a key to use their service but to no avail? I think it's been roughly a month now...

Is there specific critiria they look for when assessing aplications?

thanks in advance

@Stumpy: Fassim keys are sent after manual processing. Weeks ago the Fassim´s admins released about 300 keys. Just wait.

@Ray J

Thanks for the heads up

Got it! Sweeet

Is there a way to make this work with Walled Garden sites?

@Northwood: Should work, I think. The plugin hooks only the registration page, and walled garden communities has a registration page. Can you give me more information?

This plugin has unmet dependencies and cannot be activated. Check dependencies under more info.

Muito bom mesmo. Resolveu meu problema com spam. Recomendo de olhos fechados.

Very good. It resolved my problem. I recommend it to all.

Doesn't seem to sniff out certain spammers listed on the SFS databases. Maybe it's just me, but I already added the right API key, and did the exact installation instructions.

thanks
