Mort-lemur Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 Hi, Due to information I receive regarding unpaid invoices and other unpleasant things I need to have the ability to block certain customers from purchasing from my site. I need the ability to do this by address rather than name, as they sometimes use bogus names, but always the same address. Is there a way or contribution to do this? Thanks Now running on a fully modded, Mobile Friendly 2.3.4 Store with the Excellent MTS installed - See my profile for the mods installed ..... So much thanks for all the help given along the way by forum members.
Collines Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 A simple way to do this is to edit your .htaccess file to block IP addresses that you do not want accessing the site Example: order allow,deny deny from 127.0.0.1 deny from 127.0.0.2 allow from all

However, Sometimes I wont have the IP address recorded and that wont work for dynamic IP addresses. I already use htaccess to block countries and "suspicious" users. Im really looking to block the postal address (street / village etc) Thanks Now running on a fully modded, Mobile Friendly 2.3.4 Store with the Excellent MTS installed - See my profile for the mods installed .....

echonovember Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 I need a way to block by name and/or email address. There are a few people I wish to block by name and email address from shopping at my store. I am opening an adult e-commerce store, and I wish to keep a couple of exes from signing up. I know their email addresses, and I want to block one by name. She is one of two people with that name, and I want to keep her from signing up. I have my reasons why I don't want her, or the others, buying from me. My advertising plan is to start with friends by word of mouth, and I have friends that are still friends with them. They WILL hear about it, and may try to sign up, not knowing I own and run it. I'd also like to be able to set a custom message when they get rejected by the system, letting them know that they, specifically, are not allowed to sign up. Maybe a modification of the following contribution: http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1003 Even better is if it can generate a pop up window with the error. The pop up would also be handy for the contribution, instead of the not too noticeable line at the top. I'd like to customize a message for each person I am blocking, too. Can anyone help me with this?
