Forum Fortress works in the background while members use the forum normally.

For the forum you already run

Stop forum spam now.

A cleaner site in minutes.

  1. Install the plugin

    Choose your forum software and install the plugin

  2. Complete the first connection

    The guide covers the one-time connection. No portal account or API key is needed.

  3. Protection starts

    Forum activity is checked automatically. The portal is there when you want to review decisions.

Protection beyond sign-up

Spam can appear later.

An account can register normally, then add a link to a post or profile days or even weeks later. Plugins check registrations, posts, replies, edits, profile changes and signatures as they happen.

Registrations

Check suspicious sign-ups with no manual approval required

Posts and links

Check new topics, profile edits, signatures and replies for spam and promotional links

Edits and profiles

Catch suspicious links added to older posts, profiles and signatures

Checks begin after installation and connection.

Optional portal

Reasons, not just verdicts.

Protection runs through the plugin, with no dashboard to keep open. The portal shows decision history and activity when you need to investigate or manage your forums.

No extra steps for members

Protection without putting members through a test.

No CAPTCHA

Members use the forum as normal, without puzzles or challenge pages.

Checks between servers

The plugin contacts Forum Fortress from your forum server. Nothing is added to public pages.

Same core protection on every plan

Forever Free uses the same spam checks as paid plans. Higher plans add more checks and extra tools.

Privacy

Personal details are kept briefly.

Raw personal details are held for up to five days, then replaced with one-way hashes for longer-term comparison. Live checks can use the global network or stay within the UK, EU or US.
