I've just re-uploaded it (minor bug fix)
now: FoolBotHoneyPot_v2_3_01c.zip
tenants updated FoolBotHoneyPot Bot Killer: Spam Combat with a new update entry:
Reduce Brute Force Impact
Read the rest of this update entry...
It will also only affect bot ips that are in the cache within the last 48hrs and not affect logged in users (bots/other), I will however add this as a tickbox option, since not everyone will want this
Added an option so that the entire core forum can benefit from a reduced server usage from spam bots that attempt to hit your site many times (these spam bots ips are cached locally for x minutes, they are only cached if they have attempted to register, altered many hidden fields and done this within seconds and also have no javascript! so there is no doubt these are spam bots)
And [bd] Widget Framework when using it as your homepage too please.Talking of which, if the home page is set to xenzine-articles / simple-portal / ewr-portal, then these could also benefit from known spam bots not leaching/scraping the data... So I will add another update soon to cover these.
/find-new/postsIf you can think of any others, let me know and I will add them before re-releasing
No, I don't believe so.So anything that can be set as a portal page is a good candidate, can showcase/sportsbook be set as a portal?
- Moved methods around so the cache can be accessed quicker (before api calls)
- Extended so that Simple Portal, XenZine-Articles, EWR-Portal, Widget Portal can all make use of the spam-bot server resource reduction
