Hello ,

You can use this code for email restriction , placed in the Script called on form process :
global $mainframe;
if(isset($_POST['form']['email']))
{
$bad = array('email1@domain.com','email2@domain.com');
if(in_array($_POST['form']['email'],$bad)) $mainframe->redirect('index.php?option=com_rsform&formId=YOURID','error message');
}

Also you can do the ip restriction without altering the source code with a script placed in the Script called on form display :
global $mainframe;
$bad = array('127.0.0.1','12.12.12.12');
if(in_array($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'],$bad))
$mainframe->redirect('index.php','you cannot view this form');

Hello,

I have tested the script on my computer and it redirects you to the Main Page (index.php). You can change "index.php" to any page you want.

Regards!

$mainframe->redirect('index.php','you cannot view this form');
It's just redirects me to index.php but I want an error message for the blocked IP's.

How? I don't have a login box for normal users. Just you know.

Where exactly can I find the script "on form display"? How is the RSForm Pro file called and where is it located?
I have to block only 1 IP which has been spamming my forms.
Joomla 1.6 / RSForm Pro 1.4

This doesn't work on my forms. I have Joomla 2.5.9 and RSform pro 1.4.0 Rev 46. It says:

[code}Fatal error: Call to a member function triggerEvent() on a non-object in /www/.../administrator/components/com_rsform/helpers/rsform.php on line 1848[/code]

That's because you should be using:
$mainframe = JFactory::getApplication();

instead of:
global $mainframe;

The Joomla! framework has changed since 3 years ago.
