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.
