Tip of the day!
Dunno about you, but I frequently get contact us form submissions from bots using 'google' as the company name.
In v4.7.x, to stop them, edit /include/help.php
After...
Code:
// Check required fields
$fillerror = !func_check_required_fields($contact, $current_area, 'contact_us');
Insert...
Code:
if (strtolower($contact['company']) == 'google') {
$top_message['content'] = func_get_langvar_by_name('lbl_error');
$top_message['type'] = 'E';
func_header_location('help.php?section=contactus&mode=update&err=1');
}
Or just block IPs, or ranges of IPs outright using .htaccess
Code:
<Limit GET POST>
order allow,deny
deny from 5.188.210.
allow from all
</Limit>
If Google really is a client of yours, obviously use with caution
