We did a massive security upgrade over the past few weeks that gives our site owners more control over visiting traffic. We don’t store member info in the CMS, since that information should be stored in your billing or affiliate system, but we do manage and track usernames and IPs. The following two modules will help you gain control over your users and traffic.
SECURITY MODULE
In your Porn CMS admin you’ll notice a new SECURITY module. Click it and you’ll see a page with four boxes: settings, banned IPs, banned users, and traffic log.
The settings allow you to throttle your traffic and effectively put a stop to any rogue hacker attacks by limiting the amount of clicks and bandwidth allowed by visitors. All settings are defaulted OFF. To enable a setting, simply adjust the value, then check back to see if anyone was banned.
Porn CMS checks the traffic log every minute to hunt for violations, then bans the user’s IP or username immediately. You can override the system for any username or IP easily in this module.
At the bottom of the module is a traffic monitor. This shows the day’s traffic (more detailed traffic is available in your DASHBOARD). Click on an IP or username in the traffic monitor to filter the results. IP history is saved for one day and username history is stored as far back as the username is in use.
PASSFILE MODULE
We added a second security module to the system for managing usernames. The PASSFILE module shows all usernames in each password file on your site and allows you to add, re-add, delete, or view a username’s history. You can also manually add guest passes in the PASSFILE module by choosing the Manual Passes file.
As always, if you have any questions, send us an email and we’ll get back to you right away.
