Chris Davis <c_b_...@yahoo.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |c_b_...@yahoo.com --- Comment #1 from Chris Davis <c_b_...@yahoo.com> 2012-09-12 08:45:11 UTC --- This may not be the best way to fix it, but I've found that modifying ./includes/specials/SpecialUserlogin.php to include a check for $wgUser->blockedBy() is able to get things working again. The specific problem I was running into was that $wgProxyList seems to allow banned IPs to create accounts, but prevents them from editing. By setting up a bannedips.php file as specified on http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Combating_spam, I was able to prevent spam edits, but my Recent Changes were becoming bloated with a lot of bogus accounts. Old: if ( !$wgUser->isAllowed( 'createaccount' ) ) { $wgOut->permissionRequired( 'createaccount' ); return false; } elseif ( $wgUser->isBlockedFromCreateAccount() ) { $this->userBlockedMessage(); return false; } New: if ( $wgUser->blockedBy()){ $this->userBlockedMessage(); return false; } elseif ( !$wgUser->isAllowed( 'createaccount' ) ) { $wgOut->permissionRequired( 'createaccount' ); return false; } elseif ( $wgUser->isBlockedFromCreateAccount() ) { $this->userBlockedMessage(); return false; } -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
