toyshokan Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Did you upgrade to the latest version of prestashop? This happened to me before but after I upgraded, I've stop receiving spoof accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will give it a try. My module section has some bugs. I have to fix them first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicmaster Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 As you have an old PS version there is a chance the module won't work. There are other modules around and if you won't find anything you can resort to generic captcha solutions like Google's recaptcha: https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/v3.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yama Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 But it's bots, it's useless to block ip. You don't need to be a god of dev', you need only copy-past. @doekia made a script too, to automate the process >> Or you can update your prestashop version to the last one 1.6.24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selectshop.at Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 @jinojames Did you read this topic too ? Simply update your Prestashop version to latest in your serie (1.6./1.7.) and you don't need to make any changes to any file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martijn++ Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 2 hours ago, jinojames said: Just did what you have posted. But now home page is not loading please help. Maybe you missed something when copying, or part of the former code wasn't correctly removed or you deleted too much by accident. And btw it seems that the forum administration has made some changes to the quotes, which are either no longer encoded as pure UTF-8, but as UTF-8 BOM instead, or contain non-visible characters of a wrong character set when copied. Thus a simple copy & paste sometimes doesn't work and you first have to convert the copied text into pure UTF-8 code (e.g. with Notepad++). The upgrade suggested by @selectshop.at unfortunately comes along with new problems. For example, it is no longer possible for the customer to abbreviate his first name with a dot. So you better apply @doekia's solution. When applied correctly it works perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selectshop.at Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 @MichaelEZ - If you update within a version, than you should not have any problem with not working modules or theme. This applies mainly to major updates. @jinojames take a look if code changes you made apply to the prestashop version you are using. You wrote some posts before you are using PS 1.6.0.6 and the link posted here for doekias solution is PS 1.3 to PS 1.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
