@
DRE, I just had a look at your forum (btw, I would update your FBHP to the latest:
http://www.surreyforum.co.uk/thread...stering-with-a-custom-registration-page.1621/ ) The separate plugins are always the most up to date (the packs get update after a few updates of each individual plugin)
I dont know how to answer your verification question ("I signed up through"), I'm unsure if that's intentionally supposed to be impossible to answer (or I'm just too dumb
)
However, I saw no location issue ... I believe you have turned the location addon off? I'm also doubtful the location addon will work in combination with FBHP (since they both alter the registration form.. FBHP changes almost
every field with a unique name and adds many hidden dummy fields that act as bot traps). I don't know what the location add-on does, but if it alters the registration form or expects a non-core response from the registration form, there may be compatibility issues.
I suspect the user is getting put into moderation due to the core spam checks (possibly StopForumSpam), TAC does not put "users" into moderation
Can you check your foolbothoneypot logs... If you have FBHP installed, I'm certain this person that is getting put into moderation is not a bot (but they could still be detected as a human spammer)
Go to ACP >> Tools >> FoolBotHoneyPot Log
Then search for that user... this will give a bunch of details about that user when they attempted to register, if you are using StopForumSpam via AnyApi, it will tell you if it failed this API or not (but since SFS is now in the core, I don't expect many people to use AnyApi-StopForumSpam). If you
did use StopForumSpam via AnyApi, and this users was detect via SFS, then this user would not have even been put into moderation, but would have been stopped at the door.
So, if you have found the user via FoolBotHoneyPot Logs, and if they have not been detected as a bot, do a quick Google search for their IP address and Email address.
If the user if found in the StopForumSpam database, then it is almost certain that it's the core StopForumSpam check that has put that user into the moderation queue (It is certain anyway, since TAC does not put users into moderation, but at least you then know why the core spam checks might be doing this)
As for your core settings, from your image you have "moderate registraions when this many flags are detected" ticked ... this is quite likely the reason why you see the user in moderation, and the flag(s) have simply come from an ip/email look up
