Following the latest release of WordPress comes the latest version of Mute Screamer.
Get your copy or update via the WordPress admin.
The biggest change in this release is ip banning and attack throttling.
You can configure Mute Screamer to ban clients when an attack is over the specified ban threshold. For attack throttling clients will be banned after a specified number of repeated attacks.
New features
- IP banning
- The ability to add fields to the exclusion list while on the intrusions page
- Email spam prevention
Other updates include:
- i18n support
- Updated 500.php template
Have a look at the change log for the full list of improvements and enhancements.
Mute screamer 1.0 is incompatible with the “WP -> Twitter” plugin. When there is an intrusion the User agent string is tweeted out.
Thanks for the info I will look into it.
Please post future support/bug requests in the WordPress support forums or open an issue on the project page.
Very good plugin.. I was planning to built a similar one, but abandoned the idea when I saw yours.. Thanks a lot..
Hi, I have a problem,
I tried installing the plugin but it returned the following error.
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 41943040 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 122880 bytes) in /home/abc/public_html/wp-admin/includes/menu.php on line 176
what could be the reason?
That sounds like PHP is running out of memory when downloading and installing the plugin. You can try increasing the memory limit for PHP, or you can upload the files via FTP to your server to get around the problem.
