Spamblock by FriendsOfFlarum

Mark user as spammer, suspending them & hiding their posts and discussions.
When the "Spammer" button is clicked, the following occurs:

If flarum/suspend is enabled, user is suspended for 20 years (same as flarum/suspend "indefinitely")
User's posts are hidden
User's discussions are hidden

You can do this indefinitely, as the extension does not keep track of who has been marked as a spammer and who hasn't.

Installation

Use Bazaar or install manually with composer:

composer require fof/spamblock

Updating

composer update fof/spamblock

datitisev and can be on 7.2 this enlargement, and the 8 version of is unstable for me 😀

Can you also add some more information about this extension and how it works? Like, what happens if a person is marked Spammer or if we suspend a person, what happens to him? Is he suspended for a specific time or it's a permanent suspension? And can he start a new discussion in any of the cases or reply to existing posts (although this question is self-answering)?

gurjyot when they are marked as a spammer, they are suspended for 20 years and all their posts are hidden. After that, it works like the normal suspend extension. This extension goes well with a ReFlar ext which is coming out soon.

To answer your question though, this extension is only for beta 8, sorry!

I guess you mean Beta 8 is unstable, but can you elaborate more on that? It works perfectly fine for me.

Hi @datitisev

Up to which version of Flarum will this work ?

luceos

meetdilip it's in use on discuss. It works up to dev-master (nightly) . In fact it's so heavily used by our mods that we patch issues almost immediately.
