Signup Guard Settings

In Parallels H-Sphere you can moderate signups using the Signup Guard feature. With Signup guard you can create rules to moderate accounts matching specific criteria and/or blacklist certain parameters that will put the account into moderation.

Creating moderation rules

Once configured, this utility decides if the new account will be created right away or will be placed into the awaiting moderation list on the SIGNUP -> Moderate page with appropriate comments/warnings.

To configure moderation rules, do the following:

Select SignupGuard in the Settings menu.
On the page that appears, select which accounts will be placed in the awaiting moderation list and click Submit.
- Human Checker: enable the system to check if the signup is performed by human or by robot.
  During signup user will be required to enter the validation letters:
- Max Amount: - accounts will be moderated if the total price for such signup is bigger than this amount.
Click Submit Query.

Setting Signup Guard Blacklist

You can blacklist accounts by certain parameters: account names, email addresses, domains, IPs, countries, etc., i.e., categories included into the BlackLists section of the Signup Guard page. Accounts with parameters specified in these blacklists will be moderated after the signup.

To configure blacklists:

On the Signup Guard page, in the Black Lists section, choose the parameters (e.g: Countries) to be tracked during signup.
On the page that shows, enter the list of parameters delimited wih semicolons (;), commas (,), or line breaks:

In the above example, all accounts from the countries specified in the blacklist (Afghanistan, Iraq, Lybia) will be automatically moved to the awaiting moderation section upon their signup.

Note: You cannot set the range of IPs or use wildcard symbols for names!
Click Submit Query.
From now on, make sure to check the awaiting moderation list regularly. It is available on the SIGNUP -> Moderate page.

Note: SignupGuard will never reject client signup, it will place all suspicious signups into the awaiting moderation list on the SIGNUP->Moderate page.
