modemlooperModeratoron this site they have it set to block spam, change the name in the profile field to something different than login name

@mercimeParticipantGo to your profile page https://buddypress.org/community/members/synaptic/profile/edit/group/1/ and make “Name (required)” different from your username. One way to prevent spammers’ posts from appearing in activity streams.

Sergio De FalcoParticipantGuess that’s for the spam control. So that’s why the DB needed to upgrade, I see it already on the current SVN.
Thanks Paul

Paul Wong-GibbsKeymasterThe only change to the database structure for BP 1.6 is to the bp_activty table. We’re adding the following column, and index:
is_spam tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
KEY is_spam (is_spam)June 15, 2012 at 4:01 pm #135841In reply to: ERROR: Your account has been marked as a spammer
@mercimeParticipantNot sure, first time I’ve seen this. Upgrade via wp-admin or upload manually
-> to latest version BuddyPress 1.5.6
-> to latest version bbPress 2.0.3 (if you’ve got sitewide forums)June 4, 2012 at 12:09 pm #135454In reply to: SPAM ON ACTIVITY PAGE!
Hugo AshmoreParticipantAnd a parting final comment or two on what does tend to become a wearisome topic:
Spam is pandemic across internet sites, all internet sites that have a member/registration system suffer from spammers – it is not! a problem that BP has more than any other app.
It’s annoying to have to go in every day and delete these users
And here is the rub so to speak; you DO! have to go in everyday and manage your site, how could you not think that wasn’t important or even vital? Any site of the type ‘Forum’ or ‘blog’ has to be managed and that really has to be realised why run a site if your not prepared to… run it – it’s why there are ‘admin’ roles!
I perform admin / moderator duties on a fairly large tech forum running Drupal we number six mods and each and every day we each deal with two or three spammers each this is over and above the measures put in place to deal with spam bots.
There are primarily two types of spam bots(automated) and humans(real people) There are a number of tricks and tips to dealing with bots and by and large there are actually pretty effective, these approaches and been linked to quite often so search those out and implement. As for humans this is the real issue, there isn’t a lot you can do about people registering on your site then posting garbage – not unless you close of membership or restrict membership – you have decided to run a open registration member site so really you need to get with the plot and understand that you WILL be spammed, if you find it too much trouble to visit your site once a day or to appoint further admins in your community that can deal with it then expect, when you do finally visit to have a lot more spam to deal with and for those spammers to have had the luxury of unfettered access to promote their links or harass your members – It really is your choice how you run your site but please please stop hunting round for this magic ‘thing’ that stops all spam dead it does not! exist.

Paul Wong-GibbsKeymasterBlimey. I’d like to reassure that there’s no conspiracy theory (but I would say that, right?), nor is the BuddyPress.org team ignoring posts on these forums. We are all volunteers, and we only have so much time that we can contribute. This thread is not heading in a constructive direction so I am going to close it.
Mercime’s answer above was good as any. It takes a lot of effort from lots of people to try to prevent spam. This thread talks about user registration spam and activity spam. In our next version of BuddyPress, 1.6, Akismet is integrated into Activity Stream. We have this running on testbp.org and it seems to be doing a decent job at helping.
June 3, 2012 at 10:22 pm #135436In reply to: SPAM ON ACTIVITY PAGE!
neononconMember@Tina but isn’t it interesting that they supposedly have so many people keeping an eye open for spammers but so many important posts go unanswered. LOL I’m calling BS on that one. A completely unused Buddypress site is having new registrations and posts on average of every 5 minutes and sometimes less. But yet this site is virtually spam free. What’s the secret? Why can’t Akismet block the Buddypress spam?
June 3, 2012 at 2:38 pm #135419notpoppyParticipantI was also surprised to discover that when a user is marked as a spammer, no action is taken to delete or hide the messages they have sent from users.
When a user is marked as a spammer, surely Buddypress should prevent all other users from seeing messages they have sent? Can this be added to a future version?

weebitMemberi do update it but haven’t added too much to it except a catacha and few other tools that help me, but not my readers. So I thought about using buddypress as a way to help my readers out. Now my theme on the website has only been up for like six to 8 months. Yes it has had updates and i installed them. But as far as upgrades are concerned that benefit the readers, and members i haven’t done much at all. I did install a spam blocker, to help them out too. I have never used buddypress, and if i do use it then I will because of the benefits to my members and readers. But I think I will be losing my theme. After looking at buddypress I think it will effect my whole site layout.

richardpdMemberMany thanks for your reply with helpful link, mercime.
I must say you are a star! You (& very often you alone) always reply to my posts for help-many thanks
The link helps with anti-spam BP measures & I also need help running BP on site.Today I tried creating a new BP forum (a public forum) on my site. From my dashboard I appear to have group forums installed. If I try to install sitewide forums the page displays bbPress plugin details & tells me I have the bbPress plugin already installed(which I already knew). I am not sure how these 2 BP & bbPress forums coexist!?(in the sitewide install >”You may activate both Group and Site Wide forums, but this may create a poor experience for your members.”<)..
I did successfully manage to create a new BuddyPress public group forum & am trying to display it on my nav bar links which will help accessibility (I think I have an issue with my WP nav menu code to add sub level menu-as they are not displaying-hopefully I can fix that soon). It is a little confusing for me the difference between BP group forums and bbPress sitewide forums & using either or both on site! Where is any help documentation for BuddyPress & bbPress to make setup & use easy & clear?
Anyway after I fix my menu drop down issue on my WP site, I will see how my BP experience develops from here-so far it has been very, very rocky for me with BuddyPress/bbPress….
It really shouldn’t be so hard to add BP forum to a WP site & use it easily but for me it is!!!
I just hope one day BP/bbPress will work well on my site….
Once again many thanks for your help

crhennesMembernot sure what your wanting so instead if you goto http://www.stoningtonlodge.org/blog and register with a valid name that way I won’t assume the account is spam and delete you then maybe that will help you figure out what file i need to change.
May 30, 2012 at 2:11 pm #135264Stephanie8219MemberThank you Paul. That is exactly what I needed. The Mail From plug in corrected this issue for me.
May 30, 2012 at 5:56 am #135249Paul Wong-GibbsKeymasterTo clarify, un-activated user accounts will show in WordPress, but not in BuddyPress.
May 30, 2012 at 5:56 am #135248Paul Wong-GibbsKeymasterThere are genuinely a lot of reasons why your web server may not be sending emails. The activation key is contained in this email. As a first step — and I’m sure someone will post here with a much more complicated answer soon — contact your web host and ask them if they support PHP’s mail() function; specifically, is PHP configured fully to send emails.
Most web servers can send emails, but the ‘From’ headers are not properly set, so most of the time, they don’t get delivered to the recipient properly.If they come back and say that the From address in the email doesn’t match the name of your site (quite often this occurs in a virtual server situation), try https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/
If that doesn’t work, or they say you need to specify an SMTP server, try https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/configure-smtp/
May 30, 2012 at 3:57 am #135245Stephanie8219MemberI am having the same activation key problems. Members who are trying to register are not receiving an email.

TinaParticipant@neononcon it does make me wonder, now that you mention it….although i suppose its because they have more people keeping an eye open for spammers? i simply don’t have the time to keep up with all the spammers. sigh. i don’t have anywhere near this size of a problem with this on my other sites, all wordpress…but then, they are not set up to be a community like this one buddypress site is. its never really taken off anyway so i’m seriously thinking its time to ditch buddypress…but then, i’ve put a lot of work into the theme and setting it all up so its very frustrating!!

Hugo AshmoreParticipantIt’s a fact of life take note again of what modemlooper said earlier > This only blocks bots, people are getting paid pennies to sign up to sites
If you want to run a WP site with open registration (it’s not just a BP problem!) then you have to learn to deal with this aspect and be re-active in administering your site and members and marking these users as spammers.

neononconMember@tina have you ever wondered why they can’t get Akismet to block the spammers like it does on WordPress? And even more thought provoking is how does this site block spammers so well but none of us regular users can manage a normal BP install without being overtaken by spam? After all the hard work to get BP looking nice, it’s a waste due to issues like this.

@mercimeParticipantTina – see response in your post
@neononcon no secret, it takes a village to watch out for spammers in BPorg, WPorg bbPorg etc which share the same userbase. Volunteers report spam, Moderators delete spam posts, Admins delete so from the backend and so forth.

@mercimeParticipantOpen registration with WP/BP or WP alone can bring in a lot of spam. That’s why you search over the net for ban hammer, re-captcha’s etc.
