I know there are various plugins for adding capchas to the forms - specifically comments forms that are prone to getting spammed, but I was wondering if anyone has written a spam filter that checks for, and blocks certain strings from the main comment fields - eg, if the post contains 'http://' or 'porn' or 'drugs' etc etc we could automatically reject those submissions?
We've moved the forum!
Please use forum.silverstripe.org for any new questions
(announcement).
The forum archive will stick around, but will be read only.
You can also use our Slack channel
or StackOverflow to ask for help.
Check out our community overview for more options to contribute.
I'm also thinking it could be worth being able to block the submission by checking the country of the IP address - eg, only allow submissions from the countries you want.
Or for comments forms, you could just hide the form altogether for countries other than the ones you specify
