Please read the topic User registration and/or general login issues .

Hi -

is there a plugin/addon or setting in kunena that can stop users from posting spam link try a period of time.

for instance... only allow users to be able to post hyperlinks if they X days old or they have more than X posts???

If you find one please share your findings. I brought this up also in the past and think it would be a great idea. I searched but to no avail.

I have tried all kinds, I found Captcha and reCaptcha to be pretty worthless. I stumbled upon nuCaptcha about 2 years ago and havent had any bot registrations since. I was getting close to 100 a day and it stopped as soon as I started using nuCaptcha www.nucaptcha.com/ Works seemlessly with Joomla & Kunena.

Is there a charge for nucaptcha? I have a (non-profit)health related site. I've been having several spam bots hit my website and am tired of deleting them everyday. Have tried other domain-restricter plug-ins that do not work. Mostly spammers from sina (dot)com registering, other captcha stops them from posting.
