If those kinds of actions are possible, then perhaps a Profile Management Module could be built using them.
You just add to the jrCore_list call in the jrProfile templates in the ACdmin Control Panel. It would take you about 10 minutes to do..

new server (very fast) still some issues remain
Installation and Configuration

Ok, I'm sure anyone with similar problems will search the forum and find your so far so good solution.

Perhaps you should mark this thread as a User Tip?

Glad that's nearly sorted then.

I can't try to help with your server settings, I doubt that the Jamroom Team can either.

Nowadays I use jamroom hosting for most of my sites (saves so much time and effort) and run a few digitalocean vps plus a hosted setup I've had for 15 years or so.

If it's a completely new server and a different server guy then why are you having the same problems? Even for very large sites it's much easier than this nowadays? Don't cut corners.

It isn't really possible to help. Your issues are unique to your server (did you ever manage to get back in touch with the server guy who set that up for you?) and so are impossible to test against.

No matter though, you always seem to manage to get there in the end and post your serial successes here. Well done!

Glad you've got your personal server problems sorted (for a day or two, probably).

Items Rating-How to block a bot
Design and Skin Customization

If not logged in users can rate, bots (and everyone else) can rate anything as "1" unless you can ban their IP address one by one.

I guess you could write a custom module to make any "1" rating a "2", or to not count it at all. But does that really make sense? Do you know of any other websites which allow ratings by not logged in users?

derrickhand300:hahahaha ME?
No, not you. I meant @soaringeagle

Easy mistake to make though, you do both have similar interests. But Soaring takes it to an entirely different altitude, must be said.

Not another "Very very very fast but doesn't work at all" server, is it?

You are so unlucky with your servers!

Just ban the specific IP address, not a range of addresses.

Why not close their account or stop them from rating? Or do you allow unlogged in users to rate items?

Using Jamroom

researchcooperative:I don't see any alternative to manually either deleting inactive profiles, or shifting them into a quota in which profiles are private - until manually reset to be globally visible. If I delete them, there is zero chance of reincarnation.
Filter them out of your jrCore_list calls.

If you don't want to list profiles which haven't entered a website:
search3="profile_website like _%"

If you don't want to list profiles which haven't been updated in the past year, something like:
{$updated_time = $smarty.now - 31536000}
Then in your jrCore_list:
search4="_updated > `$updated_time`"
