Banning


This feature allows you to limit who can access what features based on the user name or IP address of the computer they use.

Tip: you can find out spammer IP addresses by viewing the history (History button) of a page that was spammed by that person. The IP address appears next to the user name in the list of changes made to the page.


It is handy to block wiki spammers if your site has registered or anonymous editing permissions, or spammers to any of most of the other features in Tiki.

Once activated, you can access the Banning admin page under the Admin menu

Once a new rule is created, it will be listed below under the list of banning rules:

Note: By the time of this writing (Tiki 1.9.7), the banning system only worked if rules were not activated by dates (leave the "Rule activated by dates" checkbox unticked if the banning rule doesn't work for you with activation by dates).
