The attached file will count access from a user (by IP), and, if the file is being accessed to much (defined in the script), the user (IP) will be banned for a certain time (defined in the script) from accessing some page. The user will then see a countdown which changes back to a link once the countdown (wait/ban) is over.
Installation for the use in AppGini
1. Place the file in the attached ZIP in the hooks folder (hooks/antiflood.php).
2. Create a subfolder “antiflood” in your hooks folder (hooks/antiflood), make sure folder is writeable by webserver (750)
3. If you want to prevent countless logins (brute force), just include this file in hooks/__global.php in the login_failed function with this single line of code (probably even with out php opening/closing).
<?php include "antiflood.php"; ?>
