Let's take a look at the figure:
I intentionally put a large image and click it to make it clearer. This is what I saw when I visited a newly established forum. I believe that the discuz webmaster or administrator is no stranger to the figure above. I am not happy to see that so many users are online at the same time, on the contrary, they are a little crazy. Looking at the background, they find a large number of such zombie members. If the posting permissions are not well controlled, these botnets will also post various spam posts on the forum.
Many administrators who have just been in contact with discuz or who are not very familiar with this situation can only delete posts and members. In fact, they cannot fundamentally solve the problem, because zombie members and spam flood posts are all published through the registration machine, and you have finished clearing them.
There seems to be a lot of ways to prevent discuz registration machines from being searched on Baidu. There are usually two solutions to this problem: one is to install plug-ins, on the other hand, I recommend using the features provided by the discuz background for related settings. The reason why the plug-in installation method is not recommended is that you have to pay a certain amount of fee, and even the free effect is not that ideal. Therefore, the best and most environmentally friendly method is to modify some default values of discuz. Follow the instructions below.
1. Modify the default registration address
Set the mod value of the site registration address. The default value is "register". Modifying the name is helpful for preventing irrigation software and does not need to modify any file name, you can modify it only in [global] [registration and access control] [registration address], as shown in the figure:
2. Enable registration verification
This operation is optional. You can set it to email verification or manual review to effectively prevent zombie users from posting spam posts. This option is displayed in the same menu as the previous one. Pull down and you will see:
III. Anti-irrigation settings
The discuz background has a special irrigation protection setting option. When it is enabled, you can perform more detailed settings to further effectively prevent registration machines.
(1) enable force user verification to activate the mailbox, so that the user must verify and activate his/her mailbox before publishing operations can effectively prevent spam posts.
(2) to enable new user registration, you need to enter the verification code and try to make the verification code slightly more complex. The verification code can avoid malicious registration and malicious irrigation.
(3) reset the name of the registry form. The modified form name makes it more difficult for the registration server to take effect.
With these settings, it is very difficult for the registration machine to play a role. If you are worried about this, this article will help you.
