i suggest u close it so only registed can do it. Cuz it seems that would be the best. Then u can get the ip from his username if he registers.

Check out the file uploads/shoutbox/shout.cvs, and search for the post of the spammer, IP will be on the same line.

I got the same spam on my shoutbox! Using the Anonymous567* as the id of the poster.

In my setting I have allowed anonymous module access, so they can still read the shoutbox, but disallow them to post through the template (if I'm not mistaken).

I guess that what has caused they can spam the shoutbox?

Appreciate any solution to this.

This is exactly the same thing that is happening to me. Someone is able to spam the shoutbox even though guest posting is OFF (though posts show).

Help? Solution?

Hey people

Markian, could you remove those spam urls from your post? You are only helping those spammers by placing there urls in this forum.

There is already a solution for your problem, please check out this post:
https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=43356&forum=27&post_id=209253#forumpost209253

I will send in a news message as soon as possible.

Neo: What vase?
[Neo turns to look for a vase, and as he does, he knocks over a vase of flowers, which shatters on the floor.]
Oracle: That vase.
Neo:...
