Is there an administrative function that allows blocking of an IP address ? I have seen them in other free forums but can't seem to find anything on my admin options menu...

Thanks

I'm afraid there isn't because its not that effective. PM me the ip address and I'll have a look.

Thanks... I have closed my forum to new registrations so that has kept the couple of troublemakers from harrassing me... I will pm you the ip's but if it ineffective then don't bother... my mom was right when she used to say " you can't have anything nice " ... lol

Thanks for you help..

Its must better to allow them to register and then lock their account. They would have to keep registering with a new email address everytime. You can also turn on "Restrict registration" in the admin area so that you have to approve every new member.

I do have the "Restrict" on so as I can monitor who gets in... If I allowed them to register could they be locked out before they were activated ?...
