• Hello,

    If theres a lot of people trying to comment spam/trash on my blog, is there a way to instantly ban them from the site (Ban IP)?

    Thank you very much to all!

    If you’re on a Linux server, you can achieve this with basic htaccess rules for your entire server or for specific parts:

    deny from 1.2.3.4

    There are also plugins and tools:

    Good luck!

    Is there a way to ban them in the entire server? I can access WHM Panel and cPanel 🙂

    Modifying the htaccess in your DocumentRoot should suffice. If you have access to WHM, you can log into WHM and search, “cpHulk” – I forget where it’s located. Your web host can help if you have problematic server Spam.

    Note: be careful blocking wildcard IP’s – you may block people you don’t wish to.

    Good luck!

    Another question, it appears to be that cPHulk only block the IP from accesing cPanel/WHM, is there a way to block it from websites :)?

    Thanks!
