Blocking actions from spammers
A spammer may be blocked because b2evolution detects a request coming from a blocked domain, a blocked IP address or a blocked country.
In such a case the following actions will be blocked:
- Add / Manage items
- Add / Manage comments, trackbacks or webmentions
- Make posts from selected images
- Upload files (regular and quick upload modes)
- Upload avatar (profile picture)
- Register / Activate user accounts
- Log in user
- Validate user email
- Request to recovery password
- Send messages
In such a case, the user will see an error message (This request has been blocked.) instead of the page that was supposed to be loaded.
