Big Spam Attack!

Hi all,

We had a big spam attach today, about 200 spam messages in the forum.

I have deleted them all manually, updated everything I could on the website and made a back up.

I will look into ways of deterring the spammers ASAP!

If you notice anything strange please email me to let me know.

Thank you :-)

    More spam has been coming into the forum and blogs today :-( Also, fake spammer accounts keep being setup.

    I have done several things in the back end to try and block them. I have removed the ability to sign in/register through the forum, this has to be done from the menus now. If this is a problem let me know.

    I have installed some plugins to try and help, I’ll let you know how it goes.

    Still getting the odd spam attack and bogus account registrations!

    I have installed more software to try and combat this!

    The spam still keeps coming, looking into blocking bots that set up accounts but not having much success with the plugins I have tried! :-(
