Re: [Laconica-dev] how i can remove spammer from my db

I am very glad to hear this if you planned to dev an admin panel for version
0.9!

But I preferred to manage all member or notice..etc in the front end of
system,not an independent admin panel system.
Such we can login as an Admin level account,manage everything...or do the
regular things as an normal user at the same time!
No need to login for posting or managing something in 2 parts again and
agian...

you,as an admin,can ban a user or Add/delete/modify notices,in the front
end,just when you catch them for spam or somthing else...

Each user belongs to one their own group,has different level power in system
like an web game.
The more active/Positive Feedback/estimable user,the more given power...and
so they can help us to make our website more administrable

some existing open source systems have no backend  admin panel such as
dotnode.com SNS and drupal CMS

I recommend considering these

thanks

An admin panel is ticket #749 on the bug tracker and is mentioned as
planned for version 0.9 on the Wiki (though version 1.0 on the bug
tracker):

For security reasons though it makes sense to have the code separated.
If a security risk is found in the frontend system, you don't want this
to automagically include the admin rights. Simply too dangerous.

So I would definitely vote for a completely separated admin code. This
is based on experience as former developer of ecommerce solutions.

The added burden of two logins and browser windows is an acceptable
tradeoff when it comes ot security. IMHO.

This is only what I do, maybe there is an easier way, maybe not.

 

I find it interesting that this software does not have an admin area that we
can adjust and moderate these areas without having to mess around with the
database.  Maybe that is planned for the future, I hope so.  If anyone wants
to comment on this, I would be interested.

 

Ok, back to the original subject..

 

When I am deleting a user (or spammer), I delete the following from the
database:

 

. File - I look in here if there have been notices

. notice

. profile

. profile_tag - if what they have as tags are examples of Spam 

. user

. user_group

 

this is all providing you keep a watch on your site.  I check at least daily
and rid the site of Spam daily as required.

 

I think the new ReCaptcha plugin is going to help sites a lot, I currently
have the BlogSpamNet Plugin active as well, but it is strong (very strong)
and blocks a little too much for my liking for my site.  While my site is
not totally adult orientated, there is an aspect to it that requires adult
material to be available for posting and the plugin blocks this type of
stuff.  Although I have only just started using it recently and need to test
it further.

 

I plan on downloading the source from blogspam.net and install on my server
and see how it works and what adjustments could be made.

 

Anyway, hope that helps you.

 

I hope that others join this thread with other suggestions.

 

Regards

 

Jeffrey Euen-Gow

Excellent guide, thanks. I'd recently deleted from spam/spammers from  
notice and user on my test installation, but hadn't considered those  
other tables.
