cgchris99 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I have a website that allows users to add records for their events. Recently I've had a bunch of spammers coming in. Do you have any tips on how to keep them from entering bogus information. I have started checking for any "http" in some of the fields but I want to make it even harder for them. Is there a way to check what the referring page is and if it is not the right one to produce an error? Any ideas would be great.

cgchris99 Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 Based on the amount of bogus data they are adding, I am assuming it's bots.

revraz Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Use some sort of a verification code before it lets them add something. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/79256-eliminating-spammers-from-adding-records/#findComment-401229 Share on other sites More sharing options...
