i got i nice way to stop spammers, it's work for me, i allow only domain LTD, i can do that in Python Django, But i don't have any idea about PHP or question2answer.

How can i do this in question2answer, So the user in the register form well be validate if email LTD allowed, if not user can't register, And need invite from the admin.

# Python Django framework
def clean_email(self):
email = self.cleaned_data['email'].lower()
LTD = email.split('@')[1].split('.')[-1]
domain = email.split('@')[1]
if LTD != "uk":
raise forms.ValidationError(_("Only .UK emails are allowed."))
if User.objects.filter(email__iexact=email).exists():
raise forms.ValidationError(f"Email {email} Is used.") 
return email

Still Getting "Spam" Confirmed Registered Users With Captcha Enabled?

Tue, 12 Aug 2014 23:16:11 +0000

I have reCaptcha enabled on my site as well as the user needing to confirm their email to post. However, I'm still seeing "spam" emails signing up and some of the emails are even confirmed. I checked these "spam" emails and they are all fake so I don't know how they are getting listed as "confirmed" in Q2A.

These "spam" bots still seem to be finding a way to get around the reCaptcha and also marking their accounts as "confirmed" by using a fake/bad email address.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Thank you!

custom page only for users with verified email address

Hi, I would like to set up a page to be only avaiable to those users that had confirmed their email address.

Any suggestion how can I go about that?

So far I'm able to filter to only registered users by doing

if (!isset($userid)){

... }

where $userid = qa_get_logged_in_userid();

but I don't know where to check for email confirmation

Hi,

We have voting on questions set to - registered users with email confirmed

But someone has just answered a question and on their profile it shows their email address and - "Not yet confirmed (only shown to admins)"

Is this a bug or any idea how this could have happened?

Thanks in advance
