This week, bots have been striking on my website and have been spaming a lot on the forum, my first move has been to set all the forums with a moderator but I still have a few validation to do whenever someone is sending a message to the forum. Tonight, I’ve decided to use the URL rewriting engine of Apache in order to modify the URL of my website, from now on, all the *php* (.php, .php3, .php4, .php5) extension will be sent to a dead-end, I’ve also modified SPIP to generate new URL, hopefully this will discourage bots from coming on my website and try to post messages on the forum !
