  • The new version of the anti-spam mod for SimpleMachinesForum

    The new version v1.20 improved spam protection, added anti-spam for guests posts and new members posts.

    Now you can do on the forum SMF guests topics that can write each visitor without registering on the forum. Not all the visitors who came to your forum want to go through the registration procedure for the sake of one or two posts, but your voting can express in an open topic.

    Despite the fact that the topic is open without registering on the forum, however, it is protected from spam bots and spam. Behavior parameters visitor or spam bot transmitted to the server anti-spam service CleanTalk, service evaluates them and decides, spam bot or a person.

  • An exception from the algorithm of filtering spam links on photo hostings and tiny-urls web-sites

    The algorithm for spam filtering has new exceptions for links to photo hostings and tiny-urls web-sites. For example, links to sites such as img.gd, goo.gl bit.ly etc. will be ignored when determining the links to spam active web sites.

    The type of the web site – blog, forum, photo hosting, tiny url and etc. is determined automatically by analyzing the structure of HTTP links.
